Weight can be a major asset.

Two matches decided by weight.    Lots of  factors can decide who wins but weight advantage is often a significant factor..  here we see Helen take charge and their expressions soon betray the way this match is going.  Helen looks much more aggressive and determined.  Paula does well to only lose by 2-0.

Although both fighters are inexperienced, it turns out to be woman against girl.  5-0 to the heavier ,older fighter.

Hot videos! It is true that weight can be an asset. But, a very hot counter example can be found here:

That is an excellent example of a counter to the weight example.   This was Helen's first appearance at Festelle and the experienced Susan beat her with a very early leg scissors too painful for Helen, resulting in in a submission.  The match saw Susan enjoy the upper hand although Helen's resistance only allowed her one more score, the match finishing 2-0.   After an experience like that many first timers might quit, surprised it was not just a roll around, but Helen went on to have many matches.
Where possible it is better to see two novices matched against each other and it can be a very close affair decided by who is the most aggressive.

Weight is overrated in my opinion.  It is a factor for sure but training/experience, strength, endurance, speed, and personality are probably even bigger factors.  I do enjoy taking on women who are significantly larger than me because not a lot of women my size can challenge me very well.  There are exceptions of course but I have all the other factors in my favor most of the time.  I do enjoy watching size contrast matches, really most any kind of contrast between different body types.
