I would bet the female instuctors I worked with would own just about everyone on NT. If you dont think women make deadly fighters your an idiot.
Bar fights are also usually a very bad example. If you get 2 untrained peopel who have no clue what they are doing and 1 has a major strength or weight advantage over the other 9 out of 10 times they will win. The smaller person just doesn't have the knowlege to win the fight.
When your talking about a trained fighter in a boxing match, a small perosn can defeat a large person if they understand what they are doing. Everyone has advantages over the other in a fight, its understanding what your advantage over the other person is and how to use it. In a truely good fight, the winner is the person who gets it the least. It rarly has anything to do with that 1 huge hit.

This does not mean the woman has the advantage, it just means that speed is a greater advantage then punching power. If the man has greater speed and greater punching power then he would have a clear advantage, however the same goes for the woman if she had greater punching power and greater speed.
When is the last time you actually went toe to toe with somone? I can gaurantee speed is one of if not the greatest advantage.

Of course, power isn't the only important factor, but a boxing match maximizes it's effects. Speed is largely a gender-neutral asset: as I said above, a boxing match plays directly into the male physiology's assets.

To just assume that because you are fighing a woman you will automatically win is the first step to losing.

Just body, arms and nubs. I never had to wrestle a woman in highschool...But i did come end up comming in second and third in about 5-6 pre-tournaments leading up to all of New England. I end up comming in 5th in New England for my weigth class, 160. Only one other guy at my Highschool has ever made it, and he didn't place.
