Ridiculous question. It's a shame the weight classes aren't more open, or at least the ufc host more tourneys. Some of these lighter guys could pose problems up to 155

Don't matter about bjj level. It's all bullshit in mma anyway otherwise Demian Maia would win
Very true. I took his question as how big of a blue belt to hand in the grappling. A grappler with no striking stands no chance unless he has some serious takedowns.

I dont think its ridiculous. There's a point where technique simply won't trump size if both are trained above a certain level.

Alright lets all chill the fuck out. Nobody needs to get stabbed here so put the bottles down. I'm just standing up for the little man against the Canadian oppression
