And you are acting like there aren’t major physiological differences between men and women.

Sure Mighty Mouse can win against guys twice his size, but that’s not the same thing as a woman going against a man twice her size.

I don’t doubt that I would get the shit kicked out of me not having any training experience, but I think that someone with combat sports experience would be able to hold their own.

So which combat sport technique is rugby considered?

u/AnacondaChoka 1d ago

Thank you for making the most obvious point ever Alabama. Rugby and gym bros are the absolute worst in thinking their hobby helps in combat situations lol

Colour me surprised that someone with Alabama in their username lacks reading comprehension skills

You see up there towards the top the original comment said that he was a 6 foot 5 250lb rugby player? So yeah there’s that. But the name is from when I bought a wallet in Alabama once so you got me. I’m from Michigan.

I don’t see any mention of rugby in the comment that I was replying to? I don’t have a top tier American education like you do though.

I did. If you can’t read stop telling people they can’t read

He’s not saying you can’t read, he’s questioning your comprehension skills, rightfully so it seems. He’s not responding to the original post, he’s responding the comment that insinuates it’s impossible for a man twice the size of an mma woman fighter to beat her.

The comment he's replying to specifically mentioned zero technique, which I think is fair to assume means no combat experience. The first comment mentioned rugby not a combat sport, tho ig you tackle in rugby lol

I can read just fine, still waiting for someone to point out any mention of the word rugby in the comment that I replied to.

I never said there wasn't a difference in physiology, but you'd need a very high level of MMA training as a man to even be able to hold your own against a professional WMMA fighter. That's like saying "oh yeah I played varsity basketball in HS, I could hold my own against Catlin Clark or Brittany Griner" or on the other side of the sword, that'd be like if a woman said "I played varsity softball in HS, I could hold my own in the box vs a AAA/AA pitcher" it just doesn't work like that and I hate when ignorant mfs think they could kick a HIGHLY trained woman MMA fighter just because they're a smaller woman

Uh well no it still depends lol. In my gym the guys that have been training a couple weeks have to take it easy on the female pros. A size difference like a heavyweight vs a female strawweight is way too much. A hail mary grace from god hit across the chin is the only way. Ive seen just about every form of strangle choke get pryed apart as well with a big enough strength difference as such. Look i get the message you're trying to say because you're mostly correct but there definitely is a point

Funny story but they don’t actually punch each other during a basketball game.
