    Yea I think it is a good idea, and especially if a shorter fighter is using a high tight guard on you because of your height. Basically you want to throw to the body and instantly be ready to move back to head shots as it should force him to drop the guard some and create openings.

    Theoretically they could be great, but in practice a lot of shorter guys may sacrifice their guard to attack the body, which could be horribly detrimental
