    I have with men never fought a woman though. When she was in her prime Anne Wolfe would hold her own with many men her weight. Punching power is as much timing as anything that's why body builder s cannot punch. Id love to see Anne Wolfe confront Mayweather & say " So you like beating on women huh try it on me"" He'd :|:| like a baby & run away

    one the williams played vs a man ranked in the 200 and he destroyed her.
    decathlon is not a sprinter but a jack of all trades, you will find male sprinters at your local athletics club that would win womens gold.
    bench pressing weight has nothing to do with punching power and being able to fight.

    the difference between men and women is large and no anne wold is not beating a welterweight like khan even with his chin and i agree with others shes not beating the little men either like roman gonzalez

    Have you ever met Anne Wolfe??? Have you ever seen her fight??? I have & its easy to see she feared no one when in her prime. If you did meet her you'd better be polite. Say any of that stuff above to her & she kick your a$$ in a heartbeat lol

    If the Bo Skipper vs Ann Wolfe vs. Bo Skipper "Battle of the S*xes" fight would have taken place, Ann would have KO'd Skipper...!!!

    No she wouldn't. Lucia Rijker is one of the best female fighters of all time, if not the best and she fought a man. He was smaller than her, not even a pro or top amateur, a complete nobody basically, yet he badly knocked her out.

    It was some German guy who wasn't even ranked in the top 200 that played the Williams sisters. He played them both, one after another and beat them easily.

    As for athletics, look at all women's events in the Olympics. If you want to find their male equivalence then you have to go all the way down to high school boys level. There are 14 year-old boys out there who could win Olympic gold at the women's 100m final. That's how big the gulf is. And women's athletics has a much deeper talent pool than women's combat sports.

    Now obviously Ann Wolfe could beat some untrained guy, with no natural talent, who isn't used to being hit, but talk of her KOing Amir Khan is just ridiculous.

    Look, I don't disagree with any of that, but the point is :

    Ann Wolf is just a woman but she is among the HARDEST PUNCHING female boxers ever, and she weighs 172 pounds, a light-heavy.

    Willie Limond is a 135 journeyman professional boxer and considered a "light puncher" for his class.
    Thousands upon thousands of lightweights, amateur and professional, hit harder than him.

    At some point there's an overlap, I believe. Where is it ?

    Do you believe there's an overlap ? Or are you suggesting that even the lightest punching male strawweight would hitter harder than the hardest punching female heavyweight ?

    Yes, there is an overlap but Wolfe and Limond will not be it. The hardest hitting women heavyweights will hit harder than the light punching strawweight men though. Plus a male pro boxer being feather fisted is all relative, they can still punch extremely hard compared to normal people, and certainly women, even ones who can box.

    Yeah, you might be right.
    I just wouldn't be at all surprised if Wolfe/Limond is at or close to that "overlap zone", but who knows.

    :good

    I remember that lucia rijker fight vs a man it was kickboxing and he looked very average and smaller
    He man handles her easy and then when she tried to exchange with him he connects and its lights out completely

    But back to the question she does not ko khan or even last 20 seconds unless he let it
