wrestler's build

I'm curious: what does a wrestler's build affect?

.....it affects how often they counter.....

It's also used for some internal calculations regarding counters being possible. Somebody at 5' with 400 pounds will not be so likely to be at the receiving end of a bearhug anytime soon ;-)

Even if his opponent is 6'7", 787 pounds?

I would imagine it'd be a matter of reach.  I'm not quite sure a 787lbs. guy at 6'7" could reach around a 400lbs guy at 5'0"

Good point! Hmmmmmmm, that reminds me, I once created a guy who was 4'4", 650  pounds

That guy apparently had a serious eating habit ;-)
