biggest, best WMMA fighter vs smallest, worst MMA fighter

What about something quantifiable like weight lifting and their World Records.

Over 87 kg (192 lb) Women
Snatch 145 kg
Clean & Jerk 185 kg
Total 330 kg

Women under 69 kg (152 lb)
Snatch 123 kg
Clean & Jerk 157 kg
Total 276 kg

Under 55kg Men (121 lb)
Snatch 135 kg
Clean & Jerk 162 kg
Total 293 kg

Under 61kg Men (134 lb)
Snatch 144 kg
Clean & Jerk 174 kg
Total 317 kg

So at UFC weights women are weaker than men. If there was a 200 lb woman in the UFC she could be stronger than a 125 lb man and might beat them but Nunes probably isn't stronger than the 125 lb men and probably isn't beating them.

What's the difference between say a 240 pound guy and a 135 pound guy?

Cause I've seen a 135 BB go through guys that size with ease and consistency.

When the skill levels are so far apart its not even sport.

he has a hell of a lot more strength than she does, regardless of how shitty he looked in there

Strength =/= punching power.

Amanda hits hard full stop. Not just for a woman.

Is she far behind "average" male UFC fighters? Yes of course. But she would still decapitate the likes of CM punk.

People who think "strength" translates into punching power probably haven't even hit a heavy bag before... The first time you hit a (real) heavy bag is a huge eye opener for most men.
 
forget about even the worst fighters, take a "game" fighter off any street in a major city and he would whoop the top 3 female fighters ever at the same time.

The gulf in innate fighting ability and physical strength is too large.

why? because she's a woman? It's not like CM Punk ever showed decent skill in that department lol

CM punk is A LOT bigger than Nunes though. He's probably got 4-5 feet and 50 lbs on her. I think Nunes can and probably would win, but I wouldn't bet the house on it.
 
Germaine De Randamie already KO'd a man who was much better than Punk. Nunes and Cyborg also smash Punk.

Apart from that, there are probably no male fighters in the UFC who the women can beat.

just wondering what most peoples opinions on this would be? lets say the best and largest WMMA fighter rn.... Amanda Nunes i suppose? were to fight the lowest ranked fighter in the 125 division. who takes it?

Amanda Nunes vs whoever the fuck Jordan Espinosa is booked for next month. who would the bookies have as the betting favorite?

i personally think any male fighter in the ufc beats any female fighter in the ufc hands down

If we are talking non ranked 125-er and 125-er from other organizations there are some pretty crappy fighters to choose from. I think the likes of Nunes and Cyborg can definitely beat some of these guys or at least those fights would be very competitive.
 
Cm punk could lose. In terms of real ufc fighters, none. Cody Mackenzie for example would end wmma.

Not really. The guy she ko-ed was an actor with little to no combat experience.

I think Tom Waes could outstrike Punk. Then again, at that level it's hard to say. Certainly I don't see how Phil could have any success standing with her.

In a boxing match she would dominate him for sure.

no cm punks u motherfuckers lol. i know ill catch some shit here because cm punk obviously is beyond terrible, but if he were to get amanda down, u dont think his strength and size advantage with his limited knowledge of bjj would be enough to get the sub? i wouldnt be surprised either way

I think he's about the only male MMA fighter that Nunes would beat
 
The worst 125 lb male on the roster would beat 240 lb shredded Gabby Garcia and it wouldn't even be close. The speed would make him untouchable and he'd still have the power to KO her with almost anything he threw.

Relative to even a 240 lb shredded woman, he'd have the speed of Mighty Mouse, the cardio of Nick Diaz, and the power of Shane Carwin.

Punk is what, a hobbyist blue belt with basically zero wrestling? I think GDR is at least a purple belt, not that it matters with the huge difference in experience. I don't see Punk being able to impose a grappling clinic on her when he's so unable to make her respect his striking.

He better ko her with the first thing he throws because if she grabs it ain't gonna end well for him.

I don't disagree with you man. I only had issue with your claim that Punk has worse skills than Tom Waes - which I don't agree with, but that's kind of a moot point.

He'd be able to just explode out of anything she put him in and then any of his dirty boxing in the clinch or on the ground would put her out.
