I don't think she could take you either, but with that brush in her hand one mistake and its stars and white lights, then sweep stomp. In a heads up sparring match its hard for any woman to beat a man of near equal ability.

But she has waxed intermediates all the time under the rules that we fight under men too of her weigh size and bigger, under ranked can't grapple with her long before tapping. She has gotten slammed but if they don't stunn her they are tapping in the next 5-10 minutes. I've grappled and sparred her she has hit me with a pretty good combination and almost set me up for a lock when I though I had a choke. She is crafty and smart technicain if she was stronger and had more weigh or a man, she'd be something else.

So she couldn't take you heads up. But if you make too many mistakes you could be seeing stars. No mistakes there hardly anyway she gonna beat a much bigger skilled man. But miss one block and the ends that brush hit you in the grion or temple.

You like having bruises and scars?
Strange, I certainly don't, and I think most guys don't like them either.

I've got more scars on my index finger than my fiance has anywhere. I love them for some strange reason. I think it's the adrenline and excitement.

How on earth do you get that many scars on your index finger anyway? I never saw anyone get cut during sparring.

Iaido, when putting the blade back into the scabard and missing slightley is one way.

I don't get scars from sparring, just bruises and bone chips in my nose.

I really don't know where I got all of my scars, we'll just say I'm very adventurous bordering on stupid.

I attend a Silat/Kila seminar this week end and how this connects to this thread. There was some stick fighting done there using foam covered PCV pipe most testing targeting.

We were attired in protective gear head, arms and etc... long story short the women were able to beat a lot of the hard charging stronger men with angles and long range strikes winning several of these matches.

Women can beat stronger men pending rules.
