Yeah, a much smaller BJJ trained woman could beat a larger untrained average couch potato male. But a well built, 220 lbs BJJ purple belt isn't going to find many women that can be competitive.
As you may know, most (if not all) major BJJ / grappling tournaments have an absolute division with no weight classes - which is where our company name comes from. We definitely appreciate your opinion, though. Cheers.
