How would you do against Amanda Nunes?

[BigMuffler]

Oh come on guys. A top female UFC BW is stronger than the average guy and actually has skills. No way is the average male (5'9.5 190 pounds fat in the US and 185 pounds fat in aus) doing anything to someone who actually knows how to fight.

Now if you know any skills then a huge strength advantage will render you superior in that discipline but the amount of guys who know how to roll, wrestle and strike is low.

I personally have done freestyle wrestling and am confident even the UFC top 10 wouldn't be just rag dolling me around via wrestling but my striking and BJJ knowledge is that of an MMA fan and I would surely be out struck and subbed if I tried to trade or roll.

As someone who could out wrestle the "average male" as an 115 pound 12 year old I promise you skill goes a long way when you are dealing with someone who doesn't even know how to sprawl. The average male sucks at MMA.

To add to this, the average male gasses faster than... well, Amanda Nunes lol.

Is that the chick who won the other day? I distinctly remembering thinking how that chick would destroy me on the feet (and sub me on the ground if I tried to roll) yet my only tactic against female fighters (use a size and strength advantage to press them against the cage HW snooze fest style) seemed it would end horribly thanks to her Muay Thai skills in the clinch. (I'd eat elbows knees and be tripped for my trouble).

She's my most recent favorite fighters. Skilled. Beat a former Champ. These "strikers" are running through the Women's divisions.

And speaking of eating...

World class women outclass average joes in literally every other sport. Even weight lifting. Why should MMA be any different?

I follow a lot of girl power lifters on Instagram and would not want to fuck with any of them.

Lol at the gym with them "military day? I'm just going to do some military... And then maybe some " light" (in reality max) bench."

I'd finish quickly, oh are we talking about a fight?

I understand that, but I think really little of the "Once Ever Athlete" Ronda Rousey. I think an untrained male could have performed more admirably against Holly Holm than Rousey did.

Just in my limited experience training MMA and wrestling, women feel exponentially weaker. Even guys that don't lift can have a strong core simply due to their lifestyles such as doing manual labor.

Yeah guys have the potential to have a strong core if they do manual labor. That's a big if though. Office jobs are on the rise and blue collar jobs are becoming less common among the general population.

Also, I've seen dudes taken out by women who've taken one or two self defense classes so I doubt it'd be hard for Amanda, Ronda, Holly, or any other fairly decent female fighter to take out the average untrained male. Yes there may be some guy with incredible KO power who could land on them or some guy walking the street who's a fighting prodigy but those are the exceptions.

Note by average I don't just mean a guy who isn't a pro fighter. I mean a guy of average height, average weight, average fight skills, average strength, and average physical fitness. I don't mean a ripped 6'6 300+ pound explosive man.

If i didn't have a herniated disc in my back and tendon damage in my elbow id spar with her no problem. I used to train with a couple 125 pro wmma girls and had no problem beating them in the gym

 

[Z28MARO]

I'd take ANY male random sherdogger who trains via phantom jab KO over nunes. Come on now guys, you've obviously never trained in a mixed gym. Its like playing on easy mode with your kid brother.

 

[SerrabyTKO]

Eh, half mast I guess...

LOL @ needing to be 6'6", 300 lbs, a fighting prodigy or have incredible KO power to have a chance against a 135 lb female.

LOL at having zero reading comprehension.

I'd give up my back, leave my neck exposed, and then try autoerotic asphyxiation before passing out.

 

[I WILL CUT YOU]

I'd smash her head in, just like this

 

[Jeffie]

i would fuck her up, it wouldn't even be close. this man vs woman shit needs to stop now.
if ya have never trained with females than there's nothing much to say. the difference between man and women is huge, in pretty much all sports, but definately in martial arts

I guess I would have to call Anderson and ask for some of that blue thai cialis for precaution! I wouldn't like to get this woman disatisfied and get the living shit beat out of me!

 

[lalaland]

I can outlift all the women at my local gym, therefore the average untrained male would outlift the world's best female weightlifters. Sherdog logic applied to a different sport.

I think you'd be surprised.
