They’re trained fighters and coaches who have an undeniable physical advantage. That’s more important than 70-100 lbs heavier.


If that 70-100lbs more is a fat unathletic slob, then sure. If it’s a normal man that is still active and athletic, and could even be 25lbs too fat but still in decent shape, he would win with ease.

I just don’t understand how some of you think a 135lb has any strength compared to a much larger man. She is extremely weak compared to him. Your training means jack shite at that point.

I’m not denying biology. I’m pointing out that these are professionals vs amateurs. An untrained average athletic 200 lb male is going to gas themselves trying to “bash Nunez’s head in” and then he’s going to get choked out.

Whether it’s muscle or fat that’s a lot of mass. And more mass means easier to get gassed, especially some moron who doesn’t train. A professional female MMA fighter of Nunez’s caliber is going to frick them up.

Y’all act like lifting weights means you can fight. Go sprint 400 yards then try to lift without catching your breath. You’ll see how quickly strength deteriorates. And that’s my main point. These strong dudes aren’t skilled. Amanda Nunez doesn’t need to be stronger than them to win. She just needs to gas them and the fight is over.

You got the "normal man" backwards in this case.

yes so a 135 pound fighter could probably bench 165. She’s a world class athlete. She’s probably going to workout at a world class level. What’s not to understand?

I vehemently disagree an mma fighter bench presses 80% of the bench press world record for their weight class

Do you think Jon jones can bench 528 pounds? Because that’s 80% (660 pounds)of the bench world record for his weight class

These people aren’t superheroes

Im over 5’11” even on my bad back days

Been measured anywhere from 5’11 1/2” to 6’0 1/8” during physicals

I’ve also weighed over 185 at times but that weight for me felt sluggish for sure

no but I bet he can bench a shite load of weight and you can’t measure the increase in weight like that because it’s easier for smaller people to lift pound for pound than heavier people. A 300 pound lineman isn’t benching twice his body weight but a 175 pound corner just might.

Im using body weight percentages based on their weight class to take the difference in size into account

Any 200-220 lbs 6’0 male in his 20s who lifts and is of average athletic ability will crush the best female MMA fighter there is. The sheer size difference would overpower her.

Case and point - Fallon Fox. Transgender athlete who was born male but transitioned to female. Got his arse kicked when competing against men in MMA. Then transitions and joins the female division. He cracked Tammika Brent’s skull during a fight on national television. And for the record, Fox was a very mediocre athlete. He wasn’t even that talented at all. He just wanted to have an excuse to bash women’s skulls in on live TV

but he was a male fighter before transitioning obviously any trained male fighter would beat the shite out of a woman. You guys keep missing the point.

Newsflash: Fallon fox would beat your arse too

cannot even start to imagine how a woman would even get to the neck of man to sink in a choke hold. You have to get down to prepubescent kids to find a level playing field amongst males and female.


It’s really not that hard to get someone’s back if you are even moderately trained and they are not

I didn’t say it was easy. I think Nunes would beat me. But lucky shots happen all the time in professional and street fighting alike. All it takes is one.

A guy of the same weight and no experience gets thrashed.


Probably, but i seen some scrappy crackheads in my day that would make it interesting..

It’s possible if you can get a hold of her. If she gets some strong leg strikes and or just sweeps your arse and gets you on the ground you might be in some trouble if you’re not quick enough.



Getting her on the ground would be my plan to begin with.. If there's a large weight advantage then the ground would the last place she'd want to be.. Her best bet would be landing sufficient enough blows to disorient but depending on height difference that maybe harder than it sounds for her.. regardless of training..
