Women in ground combat in action. Sorta.

Men and women matched up various combatives tournaments.  All sanctioned by the military. Same weight, except for the bottom fight where the woman was arguably heavier.

This is in a controlled environment.  Imagine th4ese women in an actual combat situation.

PFC Chokes out a female captain in a Southern Iraq Tournament. During weigh-ins the PFC and a male CPT (who was performing the weigh-ins) got into an argument. The CPT told the PFC that there is a female CPT in his weight class and he is sure to lose. PFC smiles and tells the CPT you don't know me. CPT gets pissed off and continues. Ironically, the PFC's first match happens to be against the female CPT. His only goal was to put her into one move that would be sure to make her tap out. He was not being a A$$ about it. After the positioned himself for the move and executed it correctly, about 30 seconds into the PFC realizes the female CPT must be out. The way she was positioned, the ref or the PFC could not see her face to tell. You see the PFC let go and get up. After he sees her purple face, he puts his hands over his head as you hear the ref call for "MEDIC". The CPT was fine in the end and continued to compete in the tournament. The PFC later gave the CPT advice for getting out of the move. The weigh-in male CPT did not shake the PFC hand we he had placed 1st out of Army, Marines, Navy, Air Force, and Civilian Contractors. The PFC was not even Level 1 Combative Certified. This was right before his promotion to Blue Belt when he returned home. Many people have seen this video and threaten the PFC because of how it looks. The PFC is not an a$$, and is a good sport when winning and losing. He has competed in the Pan American BJJ tournament twice. Once as a White Belt (lost his 3rd match to the guy who won the tourny) and once as a Blue Belt (lost his first match by 1 point).


Then there's this one:
