    To counter this, I could share that the guy who consistently took on all sparring partners at my BJJ gym was about 145 pounds.

    I never got to see him in a real match, but his grappling was unmatched. Big BIG guys would train with him. He would teach the class while in the middle of a spar, instructing the group in a low key way, never getting oit of breath. Meanwhile, the 240 pound guy underneath him struggled and strained and grunted and could never pin him successfully.
