Yes...
There's a huge difference in conditioning here. That big, sloppy dude ain't doing shyt. The dude in blue shorts is stronger, faster, more agile, and has worlds more stamina, there's no chance, unless dude in the red shorts is extremely skilled.

At the end of the day the truth is fighters win fights, not heights and lengths.
Everyone has something they can do in a fight the other person can't do. Whoever can make the other person fight their fight wins. Ring generalship/Fight IQ is far more important.
Again, this ain't short gang talking. It's just as hard to keep someone at a distance with the jab/footwork as it is to close the distance. One wrong reach or decision and you can be done for. Short dude who knows what they're doing gets in and gets their hands on you on the inside and you're fukked. Short people's advantage according to physics is they can turn quicker and do things in tighter spaces that taller fighters simply can't and trained fighters know how to do that really well. Smaller fighter in a grapple can get their arm/leg in a tight space, contort, slip and turn the advantage badly. Some people are so good to the point they only got to get in once and they can end the fight. Shorter/smaller grapplers can more easily transition from move-to-move as well - if you have good anticipation and Fight IQ you can be a monster on the ground.
Too many judge fighters (and themselves if they fight) for what they don't got rather than the advantages they do got. In comparison the best fighters see their opportunities. You know how many taller fighter George St. Pierre outclassed? Funny enough the only two fighters to beat him were shorter. Jon Jones just beat a taller fighter and basically nobody thinks any of the taller fighters at his current weight are touching him either.
The other dude may have a big weight advantage, but a guy who's 180 lbs. and explosive punching power can one hit someone weighing 280 lbs. if they get a clean hit.

If skill level is similar yes, if it is not it don’t matter.
A 130 lb boxer or grappler will clobber a 220 lber.

Against two trained technicians? Absolutely
Now someone moderately skilled against a novice? Not really
