Can unarmed models still wound?

I thought, "Of course not."
My son disagrees: "The only penalty listed for unarmed is -1 on Fight roll; there is no mention of not wounding, so of course they can wound," he said patiently.
I replied, "So my Cirdan wins the fight, despite -1 on the roll, and kills the Morannon Orc with no weapons?"
"Happens all the time in Assassin's Creed," he said, demonstrating a classic Kill'em With Thier Own Sword move.
Good argument.
What's the verdict?

(this felt like a noob question...though it might belong under Rules)

Assassin's Creed is right

There's nothing in the rules preventing wounding.

You can kill people with your bare hands if you're good enough... and I imagine Cirdan probably is...

Have you ever seen Patrick Swayze's talent/special move in Roadhouse?

The one rulebook states that models without weapons can fight BUT have a -1 penalty on rolls to decide the winner of the combat.
