Couple of the downsides of being tall is you're never the underdog and frequently seen as a bully. Everyone always assumes you'll win no matter what you do. That can either boost your ego or psychologically cripple you, depending on how you were socialized. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

Раньше турниры были, ещё во времена Прайда, назывались Давид против Голиафа, по моему. Так во, по крайней мере в тех турнирах, которые я смотрел, как правило, Давид, то есть боец который поменьше, побеждал в большинстве случаев. Фёдор тоже много здоровяков больше себя побеждал. Но тут мне показалось что бойцы достаточно низкого класса, и вес и размер играли решающую роль. Плюс к тому же здоровяк, сразу заметно, просто физически сильней, так что из болевых он может просто за счёт физухи выходить. Если бы на месте дааида был кто нибудь физически посильнее и порезче, то всё могло бы быть по другому. Ну а тут просто избиение получилось, боец не был готов не морально, ни физически, на мой взгляд.
