Let's put it this way. I'm a smaller guy than average. I carry a good bit of muscle, but, well, see my screen name.

I bench press for 5 sets of 5 at about 265 give or take. In other words, pushing Ronda to a small guy like me is a half power proposition.

In all likelihood, Ronda probably doesn't bench 150 and I'll bet that's charitable. And, if we're talking squat and dead lift, the difference is probably even greater.

Now, like I said, I'm not big so, I'm not betting on me against Ronda. But if I have that great of a power differential over her, an athletic man who is 6' tall will basically view her in much the same way as I view my 7 year old from a size perspective.

Put it this way. If you're a normal every day joe of smaller than average size in here, how well trained would a 4th grade girl have to be for you to start fearing her in a fight?

That's how a High School linebacker with NAIA prospects views Ronda.

First of all they weigh about the same walking around, she is normally about 155. Second, you say "if she could move him" which is hilarious. If they got into any kind of clinch he is the one who would go flying and that is a fact. She tosses people around way heavier than him daily, he doesn't toss anyone around. Sure in a boxing match he would crush her but if she got her hands on him or got him in a clinch it would be over in less than 30 seconds and that is being generous.


Come on man..... think about what you are saying. That a girl could beat up Floyd Mayweather. A girl he outweighs by 10 pounds (Floyd has the option of cutting if he wanted to).... This isn't magic.

She would beat 90% of people here on cardio alone and anothe 5% on lack of any legit BJJ, Judo, Wrestling training.
I say about 5% of people here could take her.

You don't think she could bench her body weight? Good God you are clueless in this thread!

I love how he pointed out her walking around weight and compared it to his cut for fight weight. Nice.

His chest is likely 9-10" bigger around than any girl she's faced. When you see her put her arms around a girl, grasp her hands together and throw her, imagine that she has to do that against a MUCH more powerful person BUT, with her hands about 8-10" from being together.

He only outweighs her for about 3 days of the year, she is over 150lb every day except for the day before her fights. Floyd doesn't cut weight.

Kind of what I think. The SEC football and wrestling guys on here could at least fend her off and probably throw her around like a rag doll, but the vast majority of dudes on TD are going to get worked.

Do you think she does 5 sets of 5 at her bodyweight? Cause that was my comparison. But hey..

Let's say she benches 125% of her body weight. That would be 187 lbs and frankly, there's no f'n way she benches that. But hell, let's say she does.

When she faces the athletic man who is 6' 200lbs, he likely benches solid over 300. But frick, let's just say he has my bench press. 265 for 5 sets.

For him, she's 50% of his bench power to move.

For her, he's 107% of her power to move.

shite I saw her on the making of si recently and she could probably land twenty punches on the average OTers face before he knew what happened

Are we now asking if Floyd fricking Mayweather could take her? This thread has turned ridiculous.

Again, you are showing how little you know.

Keep in mind they are the same height. You think his chest is 9-10 inches bigger?
