Should women be able to compete in men’s? divisions at grappling tournaments? While the women’s divisions continue to grow in many tournaments, we’ve all seen the lone 135 blue belt who drove several hours to have no competitors.? At best she’ll have to fight up a weight class (or two) to have a match.? That being said, is a 145 lb woman at a “natural” disadvantage against a 145lb? man? Or is she at a disadvantage only if the man resorts to brute strength versus technically sound jiu jitsu?? Your 2 cents:
