re: Fat, untrained man takes on two female MMA fighters

lol these are not trained female MMA fighters

Women have between 40-60% of the upper body strength of men.

These women look like they weigh 120-130 lbs. So imagine fighting a 125 lbs man, and then cut his upper body strength in half. In other words, this is like fighting two anorexic guys who both have the flu.

No amount of training can make up for that strength disparity.

To be fair, men don't fight men out of their weight class.

But I was told by Hollywood that skinny chicks can easily beat the asses out of 300 lb. men as long as they have great training and rage out hard enough.

And a shocking portion of society actually believes it.

I laugh every time I see that on a show because I KNOW its not true.

Back at LSU I was pretty heavy into Taekwondo and some Shotokan. But I was never more than a mid-belt student. I ended up being friends with a girl who was a 2nd (or 3rd) Degree Black Belt and fought in the Pan Am Games as well as being an alternate for the Olympic Team. Light years more skilled than I was. We sparred dozens of times. My reach and weight easily overcame her skill level and it wasn't even close.

You can tell that he supports equal rights,

And equal lefts

Then, there is the whole weight difference. There are weight classes for a reason.
