A gorilla could kill the best fighter on the planet. Does it make men's MMA not worth watching??

Where's your flexibility statistics? Agility statistics? Pain endurance statistics?

No one is saying women could beat men in fights, but that doesn't mean female fighting isn't interesting.

You totally ignored the argument that women's MMA is in its infancy. Put Megumi Fuji against a lot of the guys in UFC 1 you'd see some men tapping.

Ape City

off topic but could you imagine the current champs in ufc 1. that would be a massacre.

Women aren't more agile than men, on HS agility tests the national standard is 2 seconds lower for men then women.

Flexibility deteriorated rapidly with age in both genders, and such a thing isn't measured statistically.


It flexibility is the best you got in terms of athletic achievement then

Jose Aldo would probably destroy Jones in any sport not named wrestling, football or MMA purely on size disparity.

It speaks to how poor of an explosive athlete Jones is that he is 6'4 with a freakish wingspan and according to him he was awful at basketball and could barely dunk.

Flexibility, leverage and balance work in his favor as well as supreme side and length advantage, but the dude is easily one of the most overrated athletes in the sport in terms of the misconception that people actually believe he could've went pro in "any other sport".

Also Megumi Fuji would've gotten destroyed. Just because Royce won it doesn't mean there wasn't capable fighters in those first few tournaments.

Kimo, Shamrock, Goodridge, all would've destroyed Fuji.

Roflcopter is right, I can't believe anybody is actually arguing that women are as athletic as men. That's like saying 2+2=5, it's just an obvious well-established scientific fact. If you think the only difference between a man and a woman is a penis then you don't know anything, there are tons of hormones and millions of years of evolution that have shaped women and men differently. I know you want to be PC and pretend you live in a fantasy world where women and men are the same thing (why do we even bother with 2 different words?), but you are ignoring reality.

Why dont we have a 105 lbs weight class? Why not watch children's MMA? You have to draw the line somewhere, don't be ridiculous.

Everyone take a step back and relax.

Don't like WMMA? Don't watch it.

Roflcopter is a bit of a nob, but he is right about women not being any where near as athletic as men. There isn't any thing sexist about that, it's a scientific fact.

But then again, still, Rolfcopter is a bit of a nob head so...
