Why is that? Is it because you assume he would be violent outside of the ring? Because if that is the case I can assure you that more often than not its the furthest thing from the truth. Having boxed myself for several years and being on friendly terms with some of the local boxers from my hometown I can tell you that most fighters are very friendly and easy going outside of the ring.
There are the odd exceptions of course but generally speaking we leave all our aggression in the ring/gym and outside of it we are just like anybody else. Besides, boxing/mma is not just about getting in there and mindlessly battering your opponent into a bloody heap on the canvas, fighting professionaly is not like some Rocky movie were two men walk towards each other looking to trade blows until someone falls.
Boxing is called the sweet science for a reason, behind the blood and guts there is some beautiful skill on display by fighters who have spent most of their life practicing and learning their craft. Anyway I am going off topic here but I am curious to know why you feel the way you do.
Don't worry man, women who think like that have never had their safety
seriously threatened by street thugs. I have done kickboxing, and the
military style Close Quarter Combat. Most of my ex girlfriends said it made
them feel safe that if anyone threatened us on the street, on invaded
their home while I was there, chances are, they would get seriously fucked
up. Trying to say that a man who takes care of his fitness, and his physical
ability to defend himself and the ones he loves is an unappealing trait is
about as limp-wristed as it gets. Women like that marry latte-sipping
effeminate metrosexuals.
Knowing how to fight does not make people violent. Some of the martial
artists I have trained with are the most disciplined people I have ever met.
You need to do your research Patchos. Guys down at the pub are much
more likely to be violent than guys who know how to fight.
Why? We know we can fight. Don't have to prove it.
