No just showing an at least supposedly not fake one with similar size difference
I have seen 130 lb blue belt pretty easily beat a novice white belt who had at least 50 lb on them. Little guy was a smoker too.
In my post above, I mentioned having tapped a 300 lbs powerlifter multiple times during his first week of class when I was a 170 lbs new blue belt. I kept hitting an arm drag back take on him and he had no idea what I was doing or how to stop it. I eventually felt sorry for him and let him start from top side control after showing him how to do an arm triangle. He then cracked my neck 3 times with brute force and I had to tap from the pressure even though he didn't have it fully locked.
The 150 lbs dude in your video is 1000 times better than I am but like the 300 lbs noob I tapped, the big guy he's subbing was rolling friendly and wasn't spazzing out. Against guys like that, closing a 100+ lbs weight difference with blue belt+ skill shouldn't be news to anyone.
On the other hand, I've had my nose broken at least twice from incidental headbutt, flailing shin to the dome, powerbombed out of a triangle by white belt spazzes much smaller than 300 lbs. And this was doing BJJ where they at least knew not to purposely throw elbows or punches.
Even if he doesn't have grappling experience, a huge, pissed off dude with a massive size + strength advantage who decides to go apeshit without regard for his own or your safety is probably going to do some damage even if you get the sub. Against a woman, that would be an even more dramatic strength disadvantage and commensurate likelihood of injury.
