I played basketball against WNBA women growing up.

In high school, we'd absolutely destroy them. I'd put their level around 8th grade avg boys. This would be at a decent sized school. Basically, Dutchtown boys freshman would beat LSU women pretty handily.

What's the male equivalent of female MMA? Would a solid high school wrestler just take them down?

I'm reading Rousey talking shite about lots of guys in WWE. Talking like she could frick them up. Yes, most these guys aren't MMA, but most wrestled at decent level in HS, or played high level football. I gotta say, I think they'd probably frick her up if she attacked them.

Just curious. What the level is.

Most men with any type of combat training should be able to beat her. I am 200 lbs and would be very careful not to clench, because she could 100% throw you on your head if you played around with her in the clench game. I would keep my distance and strike with her or shoot for a takedown.

Jui jitsu can be quite the equalizer against the average male under 175 but with that said those juice monkeys in the WWE would absolutely destroy her.

This will go round and round for multiple pages and the average OTer will conclude he could beat her without wrinkling his PFG shirt.

Which may be true, IDK, but it's always enlightening to see baws who think they're great athletes because they once lifted a weight in high school.

I’d be dead.

Anything with any athletic ability would destroy me.

Rousey is very quick, very athletic. Against the average American male, she would quickly take his back and apply a rear naked choke before the guy even knew what was happening.

It really depends on what size a guy is and do they train at all.

I know most male egos can’t accept this but even just someone who stays in shape playing sports or just lifts in the gym, you ARE NOT gonna beat her.

The truth is that she is actually an elite level fighter as a woman and if a guy doesn’t train in Jiu Jitsu or some sort of other combat sports, then in a fight she would beat you senseless

You may have the strength advantage on her but it’s gonna come down to whether or not you have experience and knowledge of fighting

Really? I couldn’t name a single WNBA player let alone know where to find multiple to play against.

Your opinion is not rooted in reality. The average gym girl cannot beat 10% of men, much less the average man.

The extremely elite female MMA female fighters would beat most untrained guys. Elite jui jitsu is a real difference and just knowing how to not exhaust all your energy instantly like what happens in most fights.

What does the average gym girl have to do with an elite MMA fighter (in her prime)?


As to the OP she is talking shite about the WWE because she is a "wrassler" now. So it is incumbent on her to talk shite just like in the real combat sports. This thread will quickly become the average dude vs RR because that is what always happens.

An average size male in any type of reasonable health should be able to take down a female mma fighter. Size and power and likely speed are too much to overcome. Men in general are bigger, faster, and stronger than women. It is a biological fact.

This is laughable. The average 175# male with just a modicum of physical ability would kill her so fast she would be shocked. She may be quick relative to other women, but men are magnitudes stronger and more explosive. Look how slow and plodding the LSU WBB team looks - and they are at the peak of their sport. Yet, RR somehow is imbued with Marvel superhero levels of power and speed? You MMA fanboys are delusional.

This is everything. Any guy who’s drunk wrestled with his boys can tell you the difference between an average male and a 230 lb athletic male that’s spent his fair share of time in a squat rack. You can’t technique your way out of that matchup. If someone can move/lift your body easily and the inverse is not true, that person can almost definitely kick your arse.

Those juiced out freaks in WWE with a lifetime of wrestling experience? Those guys would maim her.

Level is I’m old and old a blood thinner so I’d just play dominoes with them.

Some of them, maybe most are on testosterone. Throw in a few trannies and I’d be in the hospital after round 1.

She'd have my skinny arse either tapped out or knocked out it less than 30 secs. I'll pass on getting in the ring with her
