    Elite level female vs. average Joe of same size? Guy, the female would savagely stretch the guy. People who have never trained are like a deer in headlights most times when punches start accurately flying at their face. Its just not a very natural scenario. It's not the plumbing between the two, it's the training. that's it.

    I wouldn’t be worried about him in the ring or out.

    I shadow boxed Fielding once.

    He wasn’t there when the shadow boxing took place but I still handled him pretty easily.

    I do agree with the sentiment, but there could be good amateurs on here with plans of turning pro, couldn't knock them for believing in themselves.

    I realise that's maybe delving too deep into the scenario though, again, I do agree with your sentiment (assuming most guys are just regular fans, which is likely)

    Average Joe, wouldn't have a chance, wouldn't be able to control the adrenaline or nerves would we be physically wiped out in less than a minute or two.

    Everyone will get KTFO within the first two rounds with fielding, Some even killed..

    Fielding didn't do to bad in that fight was giving it a go but looked outclassed by a much more stronger fighter..

    id actually feel more confident boxing dave allen for a fround, obviously he would put my head in the last row by round 2. but for that first 3 minutes i think i could dance and give him a multitude of jabs and crosses.

    I most definitely could not get down to 168lbs in a 8 week training camp.

    On issue of could i KO Fielding if i got down to 168lbs, i will use Brian Londons quote to answer, when London was asked if he would fight Ali again: "Sure, as long as he ties a 56 lb. weight to each leg."
