If its mutual combat, where the dude is getting hit by the woman and she won't stop, I think the guy has a right to self defense.
You don't think so?
No but it depends on the size. I think if it is a huge lady that can do some serious damage, then you can fight back, but if it is a person who will not do serious damage, then the best action would be to constrain that person rather than try to injure. No different than if it were a severely undersized man.
Lose-lose if you fight back against smaller people, so you should try to hold them down until others help to break it up or the person calms down.
