Yes, they have a greater chance of escaping without being raped. But those who fail to escape after attempting to physically fight back are more likely to be severely injured.
So it's up to each individual woman. If you feel you are strong enough and skilled enough to fight back against your attacker, you should certainly do so. But if you are relatively weak without any self-defense skills, you should probably not to fight back, but still attempt to verbally "fight back".
