Does height matter in a fight.

Yes. Being taller gives you a longer reach. That said, for people of equal weight the shorter of them will be denser and because of that better at maintaining top control on the ground.

Not as much as your ability to both throw and take punches.
If you're eight feet tall with a glass jaw your height means nothing.

Height doesn't matter you autists. I know several guys who are under 5'5 who have hot as fuck wives and gfs that you wouldn't want to mess with, because they will mess you up. Tallfags need to be put in their place

Height is pretty much the only thing that matters in a fight if both are equally skilled.
And going to gym will not help you in any way. If you're 5'11 a 6'2 guy will beat you.

Mike Tyson is like 5 foot 8 and he beat the living shit out of people way above 6 foot tall.
Canelo is 5 foot 9 and beat Callum Smith who's 6 foot 3 a couple of weeks ago for the WBC belt.
It's all about weight classes and not height classes for a reason.

Depends. In a professional fight, yes. In a street fight not so much.

One of my rules for street fights is always watch out for the short guys. They can pack a lot of power behind their punches and their height allows them to hit you in that sweet spot under your chin/jawline.

Yes and being tall means that you will have heavier bones and naturally more lean mass.

Generally if you're taller your weigh more as well, of course toothpick scrawny faggots are outliers. But weight is def more important than height. Wing span is way more important that just basic height as well.

Yes reach is very important and tall people are surprisingly heavier due to their bigger skeles. Theres some wrestling advantages to be shorter than your opponent but these are easily countered by tallfags training.

I've beaten plenty of tallfags in martial arts comps but only through being fitter and working harder. A taller clone of myself would annihilate me.

I've been in close to 20 fights since I was a teenager I am 6'3" and noone shorter than me has ever beat me 1on1. The only time height doesn't help you is if you are one of those slow moving uncoordinated faggots that can't dance or do anything remotely athletic.

Mike Tyson was 5"10-11" at like 230. He was a fucking bull, and he used that short frame to his advantage with the Bob and weave.
Ali, 6'3"/83" reach, or prime Foreman were both as dominant (if not more, especially Ali) than Tyson.
Joe Frazier was short too, one of the best inside fighters ever.
Foreman knocked him down like 6 times in 2 rounds.

Height is generally advantageous in a fight. Not always as it depends on build and the individuals talent. That doesn't mean it's not GENERALLY an advantage.
