Here is another stat that I just did some research on to show how much more athletic men are than women.
Florence Griffith-Joyner set the women's 100 meter dash record back in 1988. She shattered it and it has never been broken. She ran it in 10.49 seconds. The second fastest time ever was 10.76 by Evelyn Ashford. Keep those numbers in mind.
I just looked up the fastest high school boys 100 meter dash times JUST THIS YEAR. Just 2018.
85 high school boys from the U.S. had run faster than Flo-Jo's women's world record 10.49.
There are NO exceptions to this pattern.

The idea that these super women are somehow kinda competitive with men is a complete hollywood creation.
I'm 51 and not even that big.............and I'd beat the frick out of Rousey. I might even kill her.
It's silliness.

She wouldn't even come close to beating a ton of decently trained male fighters... just like Flo-Jo wouldn't come close to beating any decent male sprinters. But just how Flo-Jo would smoke the average male, Rousey would most likely smoke the average male of a similar size. (Although probably not to the extent of Flo-Jo because the women's talent pool in MMA is pretty shallow).
I was using the sprinting world records to demonstrate how large the gap is between men and women. I wasn't suggesting the elite of the elite women are a joke and couldn't beat the average Joe.
