RE: Would you get with a woman that could kick your ass?
I would date two of them at the same time, make them fall in love with me, and then enjoy the most epic girl fight ever when they inevitably found out about each other.

Only if "most" men didn't properly fight back. Sure, some Buzzfeed writer would get battered because he'd just sit back and take it, but if he tried the outcome might be a little different - genetically, he's a bloke, despite his hatred of that fact! (Edit - Erin Toughill does look pretty tough, no pun intended. She look like she could actually fight)
I think some people massively overestimate woman's physical strength. Have you ever had a jokey arm wrestle with a sister, female friend etc? Even the ones who work out aren't strong in my experience. I'm not particularly strong either, in male terms, but I was far stronger than them.
Science says women have on average 40%-60% the upper body strength of men...I'd say it's certainly closer to 60%.
If we're talking about a woman who is very skilled in boxing/mma, then that's obviously a different story, within reason.
Punching Power comes from the core/hips. A female MMA fighter on the professional level is a deadly weapon. A untrained or recreational male fighter would have his hands full I would think weight difference or no..

I know where punch power comes from, however it's also a mass x speed equation. Females lack the high intensity explosiveness that men have. Obviously, there are some women out there who can beat up some men. Sure, but from the evidence of the video above of a random (albeit large) dude in the ring with that trained female fighter...I don't think the male race has much to worry about in terms of physical supremacy.

RE: Would you get with a woman that could kick your ass?
A big issue is that, even if she's stronger and a better fighter than you, you can't fight a woman the way you would another man. If she kicks your ass, nobody cares. If you kick her ass, her brother, cousin, male orbiters, any white knight within earshot -- not to mention the legal system -- will be out for you with a vengeance.
This is why it's so annoying when women act tough and hard. It's only possible because of a female-biased legal system and white knights at every corner. The social stigma around hitting a woman, even if she's a professional fighter, is powerful and omnipresent. Yeah, go ahead and act all gangsta girl...it's only other *men* and, perhaps, my own sense of decency, that's stopping you from getting smacked.
