Ever wonder what would happen if a highly skilled lightweight martial artist took on an incredibly strong super heavyweight? Well, that’s why the UFC was started wasn’t it? Despite the modern sport moving away from such spectacles those questions often remain.
Recently top UFC lightweight Dustin Poirier did his best to help provide some answers, when he grappled Brian Shaw, a four time winner of World’s Strongest Man. Check out the video below to see how Diamond fared against a man who has competed between 300 and 440 lbs in his own sport.
As you can see, size doesn’t always matter, as the much smaller Poirier was able to get on Shaw’s back and tap him with the rear naked choke.
