I misread what Tom posted. You're right. Actually I've never even seen anyone doing clean & jerks in any gym I've ever been to.

My point was that the top male athlete will always be stronger/faster than the top female athlete at any given strength or conditioning event.

Well I can agree with that mostly. The problem with this discussion is couch potatoes are being compared to elite level athletes like Rousey.

What makes you guys think all of us are couch potatoes?

I guarantee you that you'd be veryyyy surprised at many of us.

Lastly, i don't recall anyone here so far saying they could beat Rousey whether they could or couldn't.

Simply both sides stating their opinions.

Again fun coversation fellas nobody get aggravated from reading text when they can't hear the other person's calm tone of voice in the discussion :)

Real talk. I haven't checked the ole queerdog forum for this topic, but I'm sure even those dummies know they can't even "compete" with Rousey. Nah, I doubt it...

The discipline and stamina you NEED to compete in professional MMA already gives an edge to Rousey against any "regular" athlete we have here... I run 40mins a day, 500 abs, 200 squats, 200 crunches... 6 times a day! My stamina still sucks after 2 years of partying and not moving a finger... been doing this routine for 3 months now... Rousey would beat me in 10 secs or maybe less... hey, if she's beating me I'm at least feeling a tit or an ass chick, so that's what I'm going for...

Gimme a baseball bat, I would still be afraid to go against her, gimme a baseball bat against the average RXer I'm game.

You need to realize brute strenght is meaningless against well trained stamina and technique. Yes you catch her in a position she is unable to move and beat the shit out of her pretty face you will eventually put her down, do you think she's not gonna have you figured out by the 3rd punch you throw at her? 4th punch is armbar time, and armbars are allowed in street fights last time I checked

I'm not aggravated, I'm actually about to go grapple with 3 girls preparing for fights that I know are going to at least get me in bad positions. Won't finish, but at least get me there, before I reverse it. :)

Once again, I didn't say "all are couch potatoes", but when you say the average guy is beating her because he is a guy, they are automatically included, and I'm telling you they lose the fight for that account alone. Stamina is what separates the best from the best, and when you have zilch to begin with, it's usually not a good thing. Shit, I'm approaching 40 and it's rough to hang with these 18-early 20 year olds at the end of sparring class just based on stamina alone.

I don't know if anyone here could teach Rousey something in the fight game, but I do know she could teach everyone here something.

I wish she'd show up at our gym for that fact alone as I'm eager to learn...

Wow, good to see My favorite Girl is being talked about so much :)

I didn't get a chance to read this whole thread. But I think in a Fight that Ronda is talking about. She has a great chance of beating $$$$
in a Boxing match ? No

That's just my opinion

I think she would make a better QB than Luck.

You guys know how people who have watched wrestling for years get offended when you say anything about it being fake, because they don't want to see or admit the truth because it would ruin it for them?

I kinda think that's the case here with those who believe Rousey is bad enough to beat most men.

What's happening with her right now in the fight-word is exciting for all of us, but i think some believe that admitting she's not invincible or that she couldn't stand toe to toe with an average guy, would ruin the ongoing story for them...

She is not invencible. I am a fan, but nobody is invencible.

This post I had to quote cause frankly I was thinking about this in a different direction.

I think it's the AVERAGE male that is always scared to admit a woman could beat him in ANY competition but ESPECIALLY in a physical competition cause, hey, that would ruin being a man for some. It entertains me the thought of getting beat by an attractive woman, or at least being pinned down into submission, would be fun! Wouldn't ruin the experience of being a man.

The statement that the average man could take on Rousey = the average man is scared shitless at being beaten by a woman, will never face the possibility

1 day ronda rousey will get what she deserves. i don't know if will happen inside the octagon or in her personal life. She has talked too much shit and thinks that she is invincible/untouchable. I used to be a ronda rousey before the first miesha tate fight and when she had below 10,000 followers on twitter. She has talked shit on georges st pierre, michael phelps, kim kardashian, floyd mayweather, and many others. She refused to shake hands with miesha tate after her last fight and was a real bitch on tuf 18. I hope her and edmond taverdyan her coach both get their heads bashed in soon but for now i'm just having to follow this story to see the ending.

Yesterday she was quoted as saying that basically fedor should not come back and that he's had too many years off and that it would hurt his legacy, well what the fuck were you saying you were ok with fighting gina carano last year AND at 145? Her last fight was in 2009 and so you are telling me that fedor shouldn't come back when it's been way less than 5 years? ronda rousey is a hypocrite and she will be exposed very soon. fuck the ronda bullshit, hope cyborg smashes her too.

Some of you are nuts.

As i repeat myself, she is a girl. I would choke her, then she will cut my hair, make me dinner, and understand why Andrew Luck is great.

Yes, she is a freakin girl.

This is like Lebron James posting up that Griner girl/guy

I'm willing to Wager ( not that it will ever happen ) Any amount, you go down before you even get one hand around her neck.

Shit... I need to make this happen

I don't know any Women MMA fighters

Not sure why everyone else doesn't understand it.

Even if....and i mean EVEN IF she ir any female catches you with a couple of blows or kicks, one you catch her with a blow of your own, or get your hands on & around her, it's all over.

As a matter of fact beating Rousey or another female is not even the question.

The question is can you contain yourself enough to not actually kill her by hitting her too hard!

Agree so silly this discussion. How could she or any other female do any damage. Me or most any male unless you are a small little person like Pocketrickits would just kill her. She has short arms and would just get crushed standing up..then what
she tries a take down on someone who weighs 60 pounds more!? Shes what 135 or 140..just stupid. Wouldnt work. Goes for legs and what you have free shots on her. Her ribs would be broken.

Saying she could beat anyone on the planet is a ridiculous statement, but I believe less than 5% of the posters here would stand a chance against her. She would destroy most of us(yes, I admit I wouldn't last 30 seconds against her) in less than a minute.
