Not to mention you are coming to Boone for the F-ball game....the Saturday after Thanksgiving..

Attendance will be convenient for frequent trips to the bathroom.

I would do it for free. That would be an awesome experience. Getting knocked out really isn't a big deal, it's not like she would get a chance to bash your face in. The fight would be over in 30 seconds whether it be an arm bar or knockout

Jackie Joyner-Kersee, to my knowledge, was the fastest woman on the planet. Not just faster than all the woman who's fast twitch muscle composition aren't in the top 10 percentile.

So, no, its nothing like that. A better example would be that its like saying you could physically dominate a woman who has shown to dominate all of the 140 pound woman on the planet.

I don't know man. A lot of high level guys think she could compete.

If Rhonda could compete with any man in the top 50 in her weight class, that would be pretty much a unique situation in the world of sport.

The Williams sisters thought they were an exception and venus got embarrassed.

Sorry. No. She can't. And God help her If she tried her hand at pretty much ANY MMA trained man who weighed 185. She would have to fight like the 1000th rated guy before I didn't literally fear for her life.

I wouldn't feel comfortable that she could get thru 3 rounds with a 185lb man until we got out of the top 5000. Even then, she'd lose. Bad.

They'd have to go to jockey school to find a guy in her weight class

Actually the short answer (well question) is, "if she can, why doesn't she" She wouldn't even have to be that good. She's reasonably attractive and just holding her own would be worth 10x the money in marketing that she's making now. Look at Danika Patrick. Nothing special really, but she is a novelty.

If she could compete with men they'd put her in the ring with men. She can't.

Yup. Cause frankly, no way I'm paying PPV to watch a fight that can literally be completely covered with a vine. Watching her fight girls in her weight class is about as interesting as paying PPV to watch Anderson Silva fight me.

To answer the OP, yes.

I haven't read this thread yet, but I'm guessing there are guys here who think they could take her.

I couldn't. But, I'd bet the house that more than a few guys on the OT would be a threat to kill her.

I'd fight her for free in a ring with a ref.

And I'd lose in 5 seconds.

If she let me hit it after the fight I wouldn't even care about the money.

People just seem obtuse to this. The best women I the world are bested by high school boys routinely. I made a similar comparison between the world record women's 1600m and Florida high school boys. In any given year, multiple boys from Florida break the women's WORLD RECORD!

Rousey is a fabulous female athlete which makes her a run of the mill male athlete.
