I means manlets with similar skill levels of their bigger counterparts. Where height isn’t an advantage.
QBs actually need to be tall to be able to look over the linemen in front of him.
There are exceptions but those are that ... exceptions, height is actually a requirement of the position, the shortest current QB is Russel Wilson and he is 5,11.
There are positions in some sports where smaller faster people lead better at certain positions.Not many. Height is usually an advantage in sports. Sports are athletic competitions and it usually doesn’t benefit one to be smaller than their opponent in any way. I know. I’ve played lots of sports and i’m A manlet.
Darts, Billiards?
only on Sherdog can Mike Tyson be considered a manlet. ffs.
John was a beast, although I think he lost a few times to Big Daddy Goodridge back in the day. There are some interesting videos of current arm wrestling champ Devon Larratt going against powerlifters, NFL players etc. here is a video from ESPN arm wrestling former defensive end Marcellus Wiley. Marcellus uses both hands and still stands zero chance lol.
In horse racing, gymnastics, piloting planes, and competitive freestyle climbing events (ninja warrior style competitions) being tall and the body mass that goes with it are substantial disadvantages.
For jockeys and pilots they tend to be 5'3" or shorter. Gymnasts are usually buff manlets. The best male climbers tend to be 130-170 lbs and it is very rare that they are over 6'0".
Horse Jockeys don’t count as they compete against other manlets. .
Anything not combat related really. But even then, there are levels of skill.
edit: of course there are exceptional humans that don't fit the mold. But certain sports reward certain physiques. I guess you should clarify your question. Are you looking for examples of manlets succeeding in a big man's sport? (e.g. Steve Nash - not a manlet really, but certainly pretty small by basketball standards)

Title says sports.
