Can't see how it possibly could be. Obviously you don't want your males fat and lethargic, but I don't see any advantage to having a smaller male.
Of course, since we all breed our males so young, they are ALWAYS smaller. But there isn't an advantage to it. Just that we like to get babies faster! ;_)

In fact, there could be disadvantages to it.
