Als man heb je dan toch niets te winnen, enkel te verliezen.

Die Fallon Fox moet een keer kapot geslagen worden door een kerel, wat hij zelf ook is.

Gewoon meedoen met de mannen zou wel zo normaal zijn inderdaad.

waarom zou je als man uberhaupt tegen een vrouw willen vechten?

Omdat hij een pussy is die niet tegen een kerel durft waarschijnlijk.

Was the right message communicated with Shooto’s male vs. female hoax?

Bad news for those of you who were looking forward to a little co-ed MMA this weekend. You know that man-versus-woman bout that Shooto spent all week hyping in Brazil? Yeah, that’s not actually happening.

If this news surprises you, I can only assume you’re also going to be stunned when I tell you that Chael Sonnen really didn’t have his stomach opened up by a surgeon the day before his fight with Rashad Evans.

As it turns out, the whole male-versus-female thing was a publicity stunt, which we all probably should have guessed when Shooto Brazil president and Nova Unaio head honcho Andre Pederneiras made vague reference to a secret set of rules that would only be revealed closer to the bout.

What most of us probably didn’t guess is that it wasn’t a publicity stunt to promote Shooto (that appears to have been merely a side benefit), but rather to draw attention to domestic violence and “Lei Maria da Penha,” Brazil’s 2006 law stiffening the penalties for it.

“This ‘fight’ has a social representation that is more important for the society than to the sport,” Osiris Maia, a member of the Brazilian athletic commission (CABMMA), told MMAFighting.com. “There’s no way a man should fight a woman. This is being done only to show the society the importance of ‘Lei Maria da Penha.’ You can’t have a man beating a woman in a sport, so it shouldn’t happen anywhere. That’s what they want to show.”

In other words, you were supposed to be outraged at the mere thought of a man fighting a woman. That was the point. You were also, it seems, supposed to assume that the outcome was a foregone conclusion, which seems like the leap that many MMA fans weren’t quite ready to make.

It probably doesn’t help that this whole man-versus-woman thing? It’s been done. And as anyone who’s seen the Rio Heroes video knows, it was far more of a fight than an assault.

In events pitting similarly sized competitors against one another, it’s not outrageous to think a woman could beat a man. Strength matters, but so does technique. Just ask Manolo Hernandez, who loves to tell a story about UFC women’s bantamweight contender Liz Carmouche breaking a male fighter’s nose in practice, leaving him vomiting in the gym bathroom by the end of the night.

It also seems to diminish the shock value when you consider that, in MMA, men and women regularly hit each other in the face. It just happens in a gym instead of an arena, and it’s under the guise of training instead of competition. Many female fighters train and spar almost exclusively with men. The idea of actually fighting one might seem distasteful to them, but probably not as alien as many outsiders assume.

In fact, former Strikeforce women’s 135-pound champ Sarah Kaufman said she almost accepted such a bout once, back when she was competing on the local circuit in Canada and female opponents were getting hard to come by.

“And even then I knew it would be a lose-lose for the guy,” Kaufman told MMAjunkie.

This, believe it or not, was the most common objection I heard when I polled a few female fighters for their reactions to this bout earlier this week. It wasn’t so much that they were concerned about the health and safety of any woman who steps into the cage with a man, at least not if the woman was a trained fighter. They were more concerned that it was just stupid, that it proved nothing, that it would make women’s MMA out to be a sideshow. They knew that if the woman won, most fight fans would take it as a sign that the man was a crappy fighter. If the woman lost, then all the man would have done was beat up a girl.

Certainly they did not equate it to domestic violence, probably for the same reasons that they don’t equate their own bouts against other women to criminal assaults.

That seems like the real miscalculation in this stunt from Shooto. When most of us heard that a man and a woman would fight each other in an MMA bout, we didn’t think “illegal.” Instead we thought “dumb,” or, more likely, “fake.” That’s because we recognize the violence between willing competitors as sport. The violence between a perpetrator and a victim is something else entirely, and most of us have no problem drawing that distinction.

I guess the best thing you can say is that, at least Shooto meant well. I’m not sure there were many people who heard about this fight and then immediately reconsidered their previous views on domestic violence, but the cause was a good one. It was just the execution that was sloppy.

It did succeed in getting people talking, after all, which seems to have been the extent of Shooto’s planning on the matter. Next time, it might be best to consider what those people will actually say.
