This is completely normal. Discus will establish a pecking order with one or two fish being more dominant. This is a part of their lifestyle and its a part of their charm. Don't worry but make sure they all get to eat well cause normally the dominant fish will stop the smaller ones from eating so you can end up with stunted fish but in a 75G tank you should have little to no problems....
