Off the top of my head, T.J Dillishaw ragdolled Walel Watson a few months ago in spite of the fight that Watson is five inches taller and has a reach a advantage that's close to a foot longer. Ben Askren easily beat Dan Hornbuckle. Hornbuckle is four inches taller than Askren and has 83.5 inch reach to Askren's 71 inch reach. Pretty much everybody who's beaten Corey Hill, Roli Delgado, Tamdan McCrory and Kendall Grove at their respective weights. Etc.

Not quite the same is it ???
This is a guy who has freakish dimensions and strength for his actual weight , he isnt just a tall rangy kid , he's an absolute power house as well as being tall and rangy
