Of course. Is this even a question?

A BJJ match isn’t a pure BJJ setting. BJJ at its core is how to handle yourself in real world fights.

She would close the distance on you, use her leverage, and choke you out before you knew what happened.

And to be clear, we're talking "regular guy/keyboard warrior" vs. Nunes...not an actual trained male fighter.



The question was can YOU take Nunes in a FIGHT. there were no qualifiers. Im assuming most of the cheetoh fingered slobs that post stay out of the discussion. Me personally? I know my conditioning and feel comfortable enough with my power and skill level that i can inflict some severe orbital fractures on a 135lb woman inside of a round. Thats not tough guy talk. Its just what i believe

I saw this same conversation between a dude that hadn't played basketball since Jr high and a college ball player that is now in the wnba.

The size difference wasn't huge, but he put a beating on homegirl.

I don't think you guys understand the difference between men and women.

I understand the differences just fine.

I dated a girl that played basketball at Vandy. I was an above average HS basketball player, but couldn’t sniff a D-1 court. We played 1 on 1 often and it was never close. I would toy with her. We were also the same height.

I also now have a wife that is a foot shorter and 70 lbs lighter than me that is training in BJJ. She isn’t in the same stratosphere as Nunes and has tapped me on several occasions.

The entire point of BJJ is teaching smaller people how to control larger people. It’s about leverage. If done right, you can neutralize size and strength.

The same...some of my friends played HS ball and did well as league players, they used to play some pickup games with the lady techsters back in the 90s...
They played tight games against them due to physicality alone...was a win some/lose some thing, but at the time, the tech girls were on the edge of best female hoops team in the world...

My friends weren't close to best in the world

If you put most athletic guys in a training camp for the same time period Nunes is in, they will beat her if they have any fighting background at all...

Ask Dana White what he thinks about setting up a girl vs. guy fight...even a slouch vs. the best females
His response:
"You're retarded, next question."

Heck, right now mediocre guys are trans-ing to female and beating the best in the region/division/world at their particular sports...most couldn't sniff greatness as a dude

Nunes is going to have her work cut out for her with any athletic male 6'+ with 50+ lbs. on her. You white knights can claim ignorance and delusion all you'd like but it's biology and physics on display. Bone density, muscle density, tendon/ligament strength, reflexes, agility, speed, et. al. all DRASTICALLY favor men.

Nunes is a bad bitch but her octagon skill is heavily mitigated by the physical superiority of men. She would best many guys near her size but her chances of success plummet as you increase the size of her opponent. This isn't Royce Gracie (a man) against Tank Abbott.

Edit: Not directed at you TSLG.

I dont either. Bone density, power, speed, reach, height, weight

Yes, skill and technique can offset some size difference. Not almost 100 damn pounds and the physical advantages above. Give me break

But that’s not the topic of debate

The average guy isn’t in shape, obesity rates in this country prove that.

Of course I forget this is the ot, every guy here is 6’3” 260 with an 8 inch cock plus world class athletic skills in every sport, makes 8 digits a year, and fricks 10 chicks a day

Dude, there are plenty of athletic males here that are 6'+. Quit projecting.
