In 2004, Royce Gracie (6’1″, 180 lbs.), then-still poster boy of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, matched up against Sumo Grand Champion, Akebono (6’8″, 486 lbs.) It’s not often a 180 pound man matches up with someone over two-and-a-half times his size! Here is the video of this brief, but eye-popping match.

Nice illustration of how the size of your opponent isn’t much of a factor when your BJJ technique is solid.
Royce is all strength. What a meathead.
