MMA Female vs Male Video

[redback]

it's about more then just "untrained male vs MMA female" though isn't it?

i see plenty of males walking around that could be beat up by untrained females. lol.

i realize fighting skill counts for a whole lot. i am not discounting that at all. a female MMA fighter who weighs 120lbs will most likely beat the shit out of some twink untrained male who weighs 140lbs.

but lets just use me for example. i'm 235lbs and i'm stronger then a "normal" male. i've been in a few fights in my life but I am no MMA fighter that's for sure.

now lets take that trained 120lb MMA female and put her against me who outweighs her by 115lbs and has a height/reach advantage of probably 6-7 inches. i don't need to be incredibly skilled to win that fight..

it's a matter of physics at that point. you take a highly tuned speed bike that's capable of amazing speed and you crash that bike head on with a basic Toyota minivan the bike is going to lose that battle in dramatic fashion.

i guess my basic point is there is a reason weight classes exist. remember connor mcgregor vs that world strong man video? it was comical. that dude would have snapped connors neck with little effort in an actual fight.

now obviously there are exceptions. if you take some fat tub of shit male with zero muscle and no physical ability whatsoever then yea i can see the female easily winning that battle.

Yeh I agree up to a point. There is a point where weight and strength become a deciding factor.

Cardio fitness is a massive part of it too though. Even if you outweigh the guy if you have no cardio you will get destroyed pretty much. I'm sure rado will tell you the cardio needed for any Greco or Jiu jitzu styles. I think you would be really surprised if you tried it. If you are not running/swiming etc on a regular you will be gassed out in about a min and all your toughness disappears and you can't do anything.

I am pretty new to Greco but I have had a guy who is 40lbs lighter than me absolutely destroy me. If you don't have fight cardio or any skills 40bls means fuk all. Maybe 100lbs??.

The size and strength beat the cardio factor when you are strong enough to finish the fight at your will very quickly or you are too large where they can't tale you down or force you to make movements you do not want to make eliminating the cardio aspect. What I just said is an extreme example. As you go lower down on the size and strength scale of outclassing them then the skill and cardio aspects need to improve to stand a chance.

I train as well red. So I definitely agree with the cardio and overall fighting shape thinking. I'm 255-260 and let me give examples if I had 0 cardio for fighting and no skills....a toddler couldn't make me break a sweat even If they were as skilled as a world class champion. A 120 lb female blue belt in bjj can make me work a little bit but my size and strength would still crush them quickly. 160 lb female black belt I will give it 50/50, I can probably outmuscle her half the time. A 160 lb unskilled guy will be no problem since we both Haven t trained but a 160lb black belt guy would tap me by outlasting me and finishing me off when I am gassed.

Now the examples I gave are just my opinion on what I have seen in the gym or what just seems intuitive. This is also under training scenarios counting mats and padding, rules, and not fighting for fear of life or injury. This is also my opinion on a pure grappling match for a submission and not just wrestling. If you added striking I think the answers change and new factors exist.

Honestly as I re read this it really just fucking depends on so many factors regardless and even luck can play a role and each individual is totally different. Just adding some input to the convo.

I think it also depends on the style. Take for instance boxing, if you are both sparring rounds the guy with no cardio/skills will last about 30secs and just get picked off even if he is 50lbs heavier. With no training or cardio he probably wouldn't land a punch in the the first minute if at all. Strength in that situation becomes irrelevant.

I would agree in wrestling styles weight and strength probably play a bigger factor though.

Absolutely. Striking is so unpredictable and if your skills are superior it doesn't make a huge difference between strength if you are still strong enough to do damage and knock them out. The more gassed the easier it gets.

I would argue that if your fighting some 130lb female MMA fighter that you could just charge, wrap her up, and slam her on the mat with your strength and weight advantage.

Technique trumps strength


All day err day...period.


Anyone says otherwise is a fool...this applies to my sport of bjj....we see this day in and out on a daily basis.

We got some tool that thinks he can win due to his strength well......:rofl::rofl:

You can't slam in bjj....pay attention you big ear dumbo motherfucker


I said bjj....technique beats strength in bjj....period.


Yes I understand you'll have the exception to a rule here nor there....but in bjj and ANY TYPE OF BJJ COMP....if you have the tech down followed by strength, I've got an advantage all day son.

On what rules or events?

Straight up bjj? Connor all day bro...trust me...some of you that like being so big with fat and muscles, gas out like little girls all the time.

I'm just talking about a fight in general. I don't know about rules of specific events. Just if Conor got into a fight with that dude in the vid on the street.

If Connor fought that guy in the video on the street as a regular street fight.

I'm going to give it to Connor here based off what I seem in this video. This guy is far from skilled like Connor on the hands, but on the flip side, this guy would murder Connor on the ground. Connor and his ground game is good, but not that good.

Connor is lighting fast and super strong; to stand a chance with him, gotta take him down and hope to God he doesn't catch you with a hook.

[Bouncer]

rado watch that video again lol. i just dont see conor having much of a chance. its like me fighting the most skilled 5 year old fighter in the world. the size difference is enormous. that dude is easily 200 lbs more then conor. would be like trying to take an oak tree down with your bare hands.

skill is important i get it. but all your skill goes out the window when a fucken rhinoceros is charging you. there is a point where power and weight trumps skill. otherwise there would be no weight classes.

Yeh seems logical right? Thing is when you try to do it against someone good it just doesn't work.

That point about rushing in, in boxing that is one of the worst things you can do. You get knocked out if you rush in angry like that.

That guy conner is playing with is big. You see him get gassed at the end. conner could have kept that up all night. If big boy gets a hold of you though I dont think there much you can do if he is that much bigger.

Yet here we are talking about a Conor McGregor Video against Hafthor Bjoronsonn..McGregor who possibly has the worst grappling in UFC.
A guy that only has only one thing and that's his overhand left. The guy that only knock out/tko guys smaller than him in MMA. If he couldn't KO Nate (bigger fighter ) or Max halloway... He ain't doing shit to that 6'9 monster!!

By the way Bjornsoon is only 29.
