    See? See we told you that men are not a threat in women's sports!! We told you that greater body mass, lung capacity and larger muscles would make no difference. And NOW we have proof. We checked the world over and found one little guy that failed.

      Was actually three guys, plus all the guys form the previous tournament
      And also, Maddie is not the only girl besting boys in wrestling these days. There is also June Welch, Audrey Jimenez, Megan van Houtum, Reanah Utterback, Heaven Fitch and Julianna Ocampo.

      Are you really so dense as to not recognize that one person is not representative of an entire sex? There are literally dozens of examples of males absolutely dominating female sports, but one female is the proof that women can physically keep up with males? That's so freaking laughable.

      all of the videos of women beating men are well experienced female athletes vs beginner men who don’t have experience but the thing is that sometimes experienced women beat men who don’t have experience and sometimes well experienced women lose against men who don’t have experience. I have seen a lot of videos of inexperienced men beating a very well experienced female athletes. When it comes to sports, strength is not the only thing you need, skills and techniques are very important. If you don’t have skills and techniques, then your strength is mostly useless against skilled and technical opponents but still, inexperienced males defeated well experienced female competitors a lot. When it comes to well experienced male vs well experienced female athletes, male athletes go too easy on female athletes, they don’t use their full strength and defeat female athletes very easily like they are small children. Female athletes work very hard to become more and more better, so it is pretty much hard for inexperienced beginner males to defeat experienced female athletes

    The skilled, athletic " tomboy" girl will most likely beat a fairly trained boy by pin, overwhelmingly. These girls seem to have better endurance, incredibly superior maneuvering skills, lower and even upper body strength, overwhelming confidence that they will pin their boys. They quickly assess their boys weakness very early on, and await for their boys to get exhausted and weakened to make their power pin.
