Yeah, for one thing she’s a world class athlete with thousands of hours of training. She’s stronger faster and has much higher stamina than the average dude who doesn’t train. There’s no reason to think a regular guy could even go toe to toe with her with strikes. She punches harder and quicker than a regular guy. She’d dodge every punch, and a regular guy would probably be knocked out with a kick which he’d never know could come so hard and fast at his head.

Sure. But that’s not a regular guy. And the amateur boxer better not try to grapple.

AVERAGE male. A 15 yr old amateur boxer is not your AVERAGE male.

Agreed. Let's talk about a lever and a fulcrum. You can have all those muscles, but they can't save you against the leverage put on your elbow.


that's not how physics works.
If you have a strong enough lever, you can prevent it from breaking. It's how a see saw works without snapping in half.

Your friends are wrong. Rhonda was an Olympic level Judo competitor. Now put her up against somebody with a good amount of grappling experience (collegiate wrestler etc....) and she is toast.

she wasn't even the best female fighter in her prime. RR was protected by White to max her earning potential. The first real fight she was in, her jaw broke. 99.9% of average males would beat her arse in a street fight.

I would destroy a local jiu jitsu (sp?) black belt woman then.

Absolutely embarrass them.

How is it irrelevant? In the pecking order of females, she wasn't at the top.

My life is sad, but it’s not bc I acknowledge that a pro MMA fighter would beat up most regular dudes.

Just look around. Most dudes are in poor physical shape. We live in a sedentary society. White guys and Asian guys in particular are soft. Hell, watch some fights on worldstar. Most guys, even if they’re fit, don’t know how to punch properly.

But we’re not comparing her to other trained female fighters. We’re conparing her to the average couch potato.

I do think a lot of men would beat her arse, just not the majority of average men. Men who work in physical environments.

Most are probably right. Unless they are just pure weaklings an average male would most likely be able to take her down. Females even Olympic caliber athletes are still not that strong in comparison to the average man.

It's all about what average male you're talking about.

If it's the average 175lb male who never played sports, is uncoordinated, and is a very weak 175 b/c he never does physical activity as an adult, then yeah, she'll probably kick his arse.

If it's the average 175 male who grew up playing sports outside instead of playing video games, and is still physically active at least somewhat, he could kill her in under a minute, literally kill her with his bare hands. This male is so much stronger than her it's simply not fair.
