Roll call. Who here believes they can take Ronda Rousey in a street fight?

[Pray_4_War]

I'd love to try but that's not a fight I would win.

[thegamechanger]

You need to be about 100lbs heavier than ronda and a world class wrestler to do that, true.

or if mma, same weight or less but superior quickness, strenght and experience as the males got.

some of the males at that weight class can out do ronda but not all of them. Ronda rousey didn't have too much problem to defeat diaz on the mat in sparring. Didn't surprise me the least.

She is an absolute phenom at her weight, in her division under UFC rules.

However I do think that it would be too easy for a grown ass man to overpower her in a real streetfight. Any man with appreciable mass and good strength levels would have a very high chance of beating her. Just like in that video of her sparring an average looking guy, he is simply able to outmuscle her. Now imagine a street fight where strikes and everything else is fair game. 135 lb is VERY light to a guy who is capable of squatting and pressing several hundred pounds for reps.

[asbrus]

Lol at the retards who think they can take rhonda just cause they bench 3 plates. I've been doing submission grappling since I was 15 trained with the gracies until I got bored of bjj and wrestled for 6 years in high scool and junior college and I've seen huge guys that got tapped out by 13 year old kids. Unless you know how to defend an arm bar and a takedown you're not beating rhonda.

[Teutonic Knight]

He needs to drink that ayahuasca tea rigt now to lighten up, he's full of shit

1000's of shamans, millions of Indios & Inka army of 50000 was smashed by Pizzaro & 200 conquistadors  

There is nothing magical about that BS tea.

I was a bit off. Gegard Mousasi is actually fighting in the middle weight, he weighs 185lbs, and 195lbs off season. He's a professional fighter in MMA, kickboxing and has muliple record in amateur boxing. He's 6'1.

Of course HE has an easy time beating her, not so for the guys in her weight class.

BJ penn couldn't do what mousasi did, he had a hard time against her.

Yes true but the original question was about fighting her in a street fight. There were no strikes being thrown in that spar. Imagine say a bar fight setting. Do you still think she would beat a 200-220 lb guy at a bar where everything goes? I really can't see it in most instances. Of course she has a very good chance, better than any other woman probably but I still think that ultimately no matter how skilled and as much of a killer as she is, sheer mass and power would be too much. Imagine a highly skilled, killing machine like a leopard up against a big massive, clumsy grizzly bear. The bear would usually win by brute force alone.

[El Diablo Blanco]

Ill agree with this a lot of men have never even thrown a punch at someone before.

most either look retarded doing it or end up hurting themselves worst.

Fighting strength and lifting strength are two differend things. You would get humbled if you went to any dojo. A trained fighter who's not afraid to get hit will always beat a big guy who has no fighting experience or any fight training experience.

Maybe a world class Super heavy weight strong man at his PEAK could win a world class judoka at 170lbs. But that's about how much difference there is between being a strong fighter and a strong lifter

Hell yeah.  Most guys in a bar fight have no clue what to do.  She does.  While the average man will just punch without thinking she's trained to punch while thinking.  She knows how to grapple.  She can put you in an arm bar before you blink.  I've seen 150 pound dudes make a guy twice as big cry for uncle in cage fights.  She also knows how to hit.  Most dudes don't realize to knockout someone it's not how hard you hit but where you hit them that matters.

[Melkor]

Hmmm... yeah, I suppose to be honest there are a lot of fighting intricacies that one would have to take into account and I have a huge amount of respect for masters of the sport, which she undoubtedly is. To spend hours every day training in the art of fighting has to account for a lot. And smaller guys like Bruce Lee do come to mind in terms of kicking the head off some bigger guy.

I still do believe though that all else being equal, the bigger, stronger guy usually wins in a street fight. And I don't think its fair to say that Ronda would beat any guy who is not at her level of fighting expertise (a decent heavyweight, trained martial artist would have the upperhand surely).

[TheShape.]

A man has got to know his limitations.

Id bite her fooking cont out

Rarely have I seen the bigger guy win in a street fight.

Honestly some of you people, ill bet you think this bitch could beat Tyson and Haku

No, that would be delusional. But a prime Tyson vs a prime Haku street fight? Fuck Mayweather/Pacquiao, that would be unreal.

[Nails]

Honestly some of you people, ill bet you think this bitch could beat Tyson and Haku

this is why isis thinks america is weak , we have dudes walking around thinking a woman can beat them in a street fight

[devilsmile]

Honestly some of you people, ill bet you think this bitch could beat Tyson and Haku

no she couldn't beat them in a street fight.

Don't be a dumb ass though, you gotta give credit where credit is due.

[Radical Plato]

She's 5'6 135
She's 11-0 8 by submission
She's 28 years old
Great shape

This doesn't mean you like hitting women.  The question is brought up because people are saying Rousey can beat half the men in her weight class.  I understand in the cage and on the street are two different things.  Let's say for whatever reason, you find yourself in a situation in a fist to cuffs with her and she's not backing down and you get that feeling in your stomach, that yes, this will only end in a physical confrontation,  There's no doubt in my mind that sexy white girl would beat the shit out of several people here (myself excluded).

For a man to fight a woman is a lose/lose situation, if he gets beaten he is ridiculed by other men mercilessly, if he wins he is shamed by both men and women for beating up a woman. Feminists, including the many manginas around here need to let go of some fantasy of equality between the sexes, as a general rule, men will always be physically stronger and tougher than women.  Wiggs, stick that in your mangina and spin.

Can we fight DLB instead?

Of course in relatively same level of physical abilities and skill level men will out do women. But now a days female athletes around the world, from casual lifting to every sports and Fitness activities- are doing some epic shit that most men won't do in their life time.

so you gotta accept that since it was for the first time accaptabe for women to take part in any life activities, the world has produced women athletes that weren't concidered possible aeons ago. And every time a physically strong woman would appear it was concdiered an abnormality, something to see in a circus.

But now a days, many people train, women too. Girls are squatting 500lbs now days. No it's not world record level, but can YOU squat 500lbs? And at what weight... just give credit where credit is due.

She's a pro fighter she spends every day training with the best coaches in the world. She would hand all of us are asses. She would be all over you like a spider monkey. Don't even act like you have a chance
