AITA for saying that my BJJ trained friend couldn't beat up a Chimpanzee?

I mean this really isn't anywhere near as clear cut as people in this thread seem to think. The internet loves to overestimate nonhuman primate strength. A small amount of googling with confirm its a bit of meme. In actuality the advantage in muscle "power for weight" is something like 60-70% higher for chimps. Which is more or less comparable given a Human Male can easily be twice the weight of the chimp. And that's before you factor our massive advantage in muscle dexterity and combat training. There are likely plenty of human fighters and wrestlers who could fight a chimp and have good odds to win. The real danger would probably be in their jaws, but they certainly couldn't break a lock of heavy weight fighter.
