      As a big guy myself i can tell you that its just instinct to sweep someone smaller than you, even as a small child with no training i was able to use a judo trip naturally. leg behind leg and push. Its worked 99% of the time on anyone i have ever tried it to, the only guy it didnt work on was a wrestler. He sprawled as soon as he saw my foot run behind his and negated my push.

    1:34 "So, to start this breakdown, I wanna say that if this was a real match, this would end if ONE, just ONE shot landed from my opponent Eric. Fortunately, Eric is a friendly giant with amazing control and sparring etiquette."
    ^THIS. 100%. And this is why there are weight classes/divisions in combat sports. It's so funny when people say "sIzE dOeSn'T mAtTeR iN a FiGhT!" People that say this generally haven't sparred with actual fighters that are bigger than them. While it's certainly not the only determining factor in a fight, it is definitely important to consider, and to not respect or acknowledge it would be ignorant. Also, I love friendly giants! I can learn a lot from them and they can keep me honest without hurting me! 🙂

Logic says do not mess and get outta there, however, if trapped in a corner, bob and weaves important as well as body head combos. I noticed you didn't try sweeping him or catching him off balance. Was that because he was just to solid with his stance because of his bjj exp?

    Also I learned the right body hook right uppercut (Tyson) combo which makes me finally land some clean uppercuts. Was wondering why you arent doubling up on your punches in this one to mix it up? Right body, right overhand should work on a giant.
    6:43 this ones new to me. I'll try it out looks good.

    I've sparred with against some giants, Kickboxing & with weapons. I am "average" sized: 5 ft 11 inch, 175 lbs. One does have to switch to an appropriate fighting strategy when greatly outweighed. My comment is that many female martial artists have this experience every time they're sparring. My wife is 5 ft 2 inch, & has been training for over 10 years. Her discipline is Eskrima-Kali-Arnis & Karate, which are not as sparring-heavy in training as MMA, still contain freestyle, light-gear fighting in class.
