You bring up a good point - positioning. I think we have to consider two facets of this. First, the change (for both combatants) on what is a "good" position. With more arms, this guy has more ability to defend/dominate from most positions, which leaves commensurately fewer options for a 2-handed opponent (unless he's a centaur, in which case...).Thinking about it, my assumption is the real advantage when it comes to grappling would be control. You would have two arms to try and get a kimura or at least make the other person weary that way you can use your other arms and body to focus on positioning. And if you need a break, you could use all four arms to pin the person as you maintain/rest in a position and they have to exert themselves trying to escape.
Yeah, for simplicity I've been assuming burn rates and such are equal, but they needn't be. He could have the same cardiovascular capacity, which would mean he'd have to be significantly more efficient to last the same fight length.Also would the longer torso give more lung capacity to fuel the extra muscles or stamina is gonna become a factor
