According to that article, about 1.5 times stronger. There's a lot more deviation than that in the human population. So going by that article, if the type of person who could take on a wolf got lucky enough to be matched with an average chimp, I think they'd have a chance. Especially if they can think of a way to take advantage of the chimp's poor endurance (also in the article).
