If you don't think that means anything I suggest you go check out some of the bjj gyms in your area and throw out a challenge to the women that train.



Can this challenge include me being allowed to break their nose?

I have no doubt in a pure bjj setting that a woman could take me, but in an actual fight? Hell no.

Let's just say she'd have those same looks, but for different reasons when I got her down on the mat.

This is stupid. This is just like the Rhonda Rousey questions.

No. 99% of guys on here couldn’t either because they don’t train like she does. She would punch and kick you so many times before you could land one punch, she would knock you down.

There is no doubt that she’d go down against almost any guy who can just fight a little. A man who can defend himself well and outweighs her and is in decent shape would knock her arse out inside of a minute.

This is correct. Im not about to let her spider monkey me and bar me out. But im 110% confident i can keep her at the end of a jab until her lights go out

A “pure BJJ setting” is an actual fight FWIW

And she would leverage the frick out of you and choke you out with the quickness

Ah the quarterly thread where fat couch potatoes think they wouldn’t get their arse kicked by a smaller quicker woman.

“Just lay on her” is a great strategy until you walk towards her and she starts punching you in the face

Leg kicks and long jabs stop that in a minute...
Most any guy athletically in shape and has a year or 2 in combatives, boxing, Wrestling or the like that has 5" and 60 pounds will beat her 9/10 times...

That said, her hook is clearly dangerous, and the potential for getting locked is also decent.

Most couch potatoes with 60 pounds on her will suffer in rounds 4-5 against her, and won't have the tools to attack her

Neither of those are won by raw strength, huge difference.


Fighting isn’t a weight lifting competition, you know that right?

The stronger fighter loses a lot of the time. Stamina, fighting skill, and technical skill are all much more important than raw strength in a fight.

99% of this board has no legitimate fighting experience. Almost every experienced male MMA fighter could probably beat her but the random sacks of shite ITT who say they could because they outweigh her by 50+ pounds with their beer gut, well

As I said the last time we did this thread. There would be a big difference in results between a man with zero fight training and one with some skills.

The guy with zero training, thrown into the Octagon, would almost certainly gas out in about 60 seconds and then she would work him over and eventually get him down for a submission.

But put a guy with just a touch of training in there, who wouldn’t gas and could keep her at a distance and work her until he can use his size / weight to get on her and that would be it. A guy with 60 or 80 pounds on top of her would win every time.

I am pretty confident in this analysis. When I was training martial arts while at LSU I had a chance to full contact spar with a girl who had just medaled in the Pan Am games. I was new to the sport but knew enough to defend myself. Her skill level was 100x mine but I whipped her arse because every time we got close I would just toss her around. The weight difference was a big deciding factor. There is a reason they have weight classes in martial sports.

She can break your arm or choke you

I tapped out to women who is a bjj blue belt a few weeks back

It was my first class in years however and I am a white belt. But she’s pretty tough

Most of them would get wrecked by Nunes or Cyborg because most have never trained before. There's more to fighting then size and your punch

The answers in this thread are astoundingly stupid.

Once again, goes to show how retarded most of you are.

And my answer is no. Absolutely not.
Am I bigger than her? Yes.

Am I stronger than her? Yes.

But what most of you idiots don't understand is that this woman trains day in and day out with professional fighting coaches. This woman's footwork, hands, stamina are nothing you turds have dealt with in person.

I'd venture to say one 5 minute round with her would leave most of you throwing up.

You idiots are so clueless. I wish that professional fighter that posts here would shut each and everyone one of you up.

One big man punch and she'd fold.


This is the mentality that's so out of touch with the actual scenario at hand.

Once again, this woman trains with grown arse men. What part of that do you idiots not understand?

The same amount of time you spend going into your sad office and sitting in your cubicle, this woman spends training on groundwork, throwing, defense, etc.

Most of you couldn't even throw a proper punch to begin with. Most of you would leave yourselves wide open and have no clue when it comes to positioning of hands.

It's not about pound-for-pound.

Do you have more strength than her? Yes, most of us here probably do. It's not about strength, though. And that's what most of you can't comprehend.


One. Just one kick from her right to your ribs would have you folding like a paper napkin.
