So you think you can take serna in tennis?


No, but a Louisiana State High School singles champion could, with likely ease. Probably in every class, and probably all the runners up as well.

You see 240 and just assume i have to be a fat arse?
The point of saying i still play was showing that i'm not a fat arse, or an nonathletic meat head.

No.
I'm not good at tennis. But i bet you there are several high school boys in Baton Rouge that could beat her.

There's a reason there are weight classes in fighting. You don't see height classes for basketball or WR's, or weight classes for football players.
MMA is a sport where physical strength is more important than any other and can play a pivotal role in who wins, despite who is the better technician.
The gap in strength between myself and Rousey is vast. No amount of technique from her could stop me from beating her arse.

The strength difference in just our hands alone is the main reason i would win. She cant grab me. Her hands are too small and too weak for my size and strength. On the other hand, i could grab just about any part of her body and sling her around like a rag doll.

Me fighting her is like when Hulk Hogan, I mean Thunderlips, fought Rocky, but in real life Hogan would have killed Rocky.

Have you not watched those old videos when Gracie would fight some huge muscle bound dude, and you'd be thinking, that little guy is gonna get killed...and Gracie would just destroy them?

Rousey would dismantle any one of us.

Respectfully disagree. She would destroy you. Your elbow would likely be pointing the wrong way before you knew what happened.

There's no doubt in my mind I could win and I wouldn't need 3 months to get in shape cause I'm already there

I think most here are joking.

However I don't think it would take a guy close in skill level to beat her. A much stronger guy with rudimentary wrestling skills trained in MMA for a few months could beat her.

You saying you play does neither.






So by your logic you would destroy Mayweather.

I can buy this but your average MSBer that has not played any competitive sport since high school, drinks 12 beers on the course and has zero wrestling experience is likely to get schooled.

Mayweather has a dick, not a vagina.

How can some of you not realize the enormous difference between men and women?

Most fighters will tell you that a heavier opponent is easier to beat because they can use their weight against them.

A big tough guy would likely come in flailing as meatheads tend to do and it would be over quickly.

You said you would beat her because you were so much bigger than her and then compared Thunderlips to Rocky. You would be a lot bigger than Mayweather as well, so by your logic you would destroy him.

Fact is she would work your fat arse over. So go eat another big mac and go play in your adult kick ball league and call yourself an athlete.

The fact is that someone trained in hand to hand combat can easily get over on someone not, no matter how big. The reason they have different weight classes is because both participants are highly trained. If you were to fight her that would not be the case.

How can you realize that she is a professional fighter and well trained, not the normal trailer park women that you likely beat on.

Probably any male professional fighter or most male athletes given basic fighting training could beat her. She would whoop the frick out of me or probably any average man though.

Eta: I actually had a similar argument with a group of friends a couple weeks ago. The scenario was Mayweather vs Roussey. I was the only one who took the position that female athletes just can't match up with male athletes. They weren't hearing it.

I have zero respect for a male that says Rousey can beat Mayweather
