I disagree. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a better martial art for women than Aikido. With BJJ you actually have training partners who are going 100% against you, unlike Aikido that has training partners going 100% with you, ready to fall.

Dan Gable is the greatest that's ever lived. But never fought in MMA.
