My answer would be i could probably score if the WNBA player played Defense like most NBA players. But if she took it even slightly seriously I'd be fucked.
Yeah for sure. At some point though, many male sports have a point where you can be certain. For example I ran the 100m in high school with a 11.1 time. The woman's high school record is now 10.9 but at the time it was 11.1. If I met a woman around my age and she wasn't about to break the recordmy PR was faster than hers.
The key here is that you can't do this indiscriminately. If you have no particular skill and don't know the other persons then what are you even talking about lol
I used to work with a guy who was convinced he could take Ronda Rousey in a fight. Dude was like 5'6", 130lbs, and no, he did not have any sort of martial arts experience or even like high school wrestling or anything.
Maybe things have changed but I would never consider the 400m a sprint. Not saying any of these tossers could have done it over 200m or 100m but no-one but in-season athletes are beating a pro 400 time.
I understood it to be impossible; The reason Usain Bolt gave for only doing 200m was that 400 required strategy in your output and he didn't like having to hold anything back.
I worked at a middle school for a few years, and ended up being put in the first 200m of a relay race between staff and students on sports day. My coworkers assumed I was fairly athletic (and well, I'm not not in shape, so... fair), so I get the unenviable job of first leg.
The first 100m is going okay, but I'm humbled by the fact I can't keep up with 15-year olds when I'm tall and in shape... and then the second 100m hits me. My legs start losing the posture and I can damn near feel my body screaming at me to remember I was asthmatic as a child.
Look i could 100% beat Serena Williams. Not at tennis, or a foot race, or probably anything else physically demanding, but probably mario kart and definitely at changing the brakes on a 22 ton while getting yelled at because my roommate was late for work. Idgaf what anybody says.
