Justin Gaethje admits he would be knocked out by a Namajunas headkick

[Kyojiro Kagenuma]

No it wasn't.

U don't know the difference between. Knock out and tko

Go watch Justin ko vick
Or Edson kicking Terry
Maybe ngnnou koing overeem
Those are knock outs

Lol dude that was not a TKO. The official record even says KO.

 

[Kyojiro Kagenuma]

There is a difference between knocking out a man and women.

Yea that's not the point at all.

Rose would need a ladder to headkick a sherdogger.

 

[Apollo33]

contrary to Sherdog logic, it really doesn't matter who is throwing a kick. As long as you generate enough force on a certain part of your head, you will go to sleep. I'm sure most women fighter can generate that through a kick

Ya after sooo many punches

The ko's i listed didn't need follow up punches . Those are ko's
Not roses kick buddy

All the Butches like this post. ......wait did I missspell Butches? ...Answer...yes and no

Any competent male with a size advantage and weight advantage would run through almost every female UFC fighter relatively easy.
I think nunes and Valentina would be difficult for many unless they had 50lbs+ on them and muscle

Gaethje is just being cute and supportive for his teammate.

Thug Rose is 5”5. Men are athletically superior to women in every way possible. She’ll land a head kick if Gaethje stood still and even then it’s not like Gaethje hasn’t eaten clean head kicks before.

 

[Better Every Day]

To be fair those stories are almost always extremely misleading. The last female wrestler they hyped that did that was in the smallest attendance bracket and was facing a male that was 3 grades younger than her (she essentially won a state title in an attendance/weight bracket that had less than 20 serious wrestlers competing in it)

So, 20 "serious" male wrestlers were surpassed by the female one?

 

[dogsdonutsdragons]

makes you wonder if he has been

 

[Luckyme]

Not really surprising. A well placed head kick from a trained fighter is like getting hit with a baseball bat. Doesn’t matter if they’re male or female.

Now if he said Rose could KO him with a punch then I’d be concerned.

 

[WhiteMousse]

This is absurd. This is what would happen:

1) Rose kicks me in the head
2) I laugh
3) I pick her up and use her as a weapon to hit her friends

20 is being generous, the classification (attendance zone) was so little and the weight class was so small that the finalist she beat was a 1st year freshman with a borderline .500 record.

Like I said, the context of these stories are always misleading. She didn't run through a competitive bracket with kids that where actually club level wrestlers. Don't get me wrong it's still a good story but a low level bracket in a low attendance zone isn't justification that girls can actually win against legitmate male wrestlers.

It's like the equaivlent of a top 50 nationally ranked female tennis player beating a male in a podunk low attendence small city bracket and then being like "see female tennis players can easily hang with male players".

 

[Sharkhunter]

plenty of vids online of "average" people handling pro fighters. One was the guy broke into a UFC guys house, forget the name, and buy the pro's own admission he hit him with everything but the kitchen sink and couldnt stop or keep the guy down

 

[Ares Black]

Anyone thinking they can just eat a head kick from a rose or Valentina has no fuckin idea what they are talking about.

That is 90% of Sherdog tbh.

 

[Ares Black]

Yea that's not the point at all.

Most people on Sherdog don't actually know what KO means.

 

[koquerelle]

Hold the press. Justin is being nice.

 

[Raymundo Alvarado Guevara]

A perfectly kick

 

[Zebra Cheeks]

you're referring to the outcome of games of soccer etc; but female high school (i.e., not-yet adult world champions) athletes sometimes end up with winning records vs high school boys in a sport that feeds directly into MMA - wrestling.

There was a girl at my high school that graduated with a wrestling record of 102-2

lets see a rematch after those boys go through puberty
