This post isn't directed at anyone, as I believe all have given honest answers. That said, I would like to pass on something.
I have been in and around a few scraps in my time. I have seen some really good fighter's go at it for real, that were MA'ers and boxers. Very rarely was it an easy time with a few shots, even against untrained street fighters. With that in mind, I would strongly recommend that Boxers not be taken lightly. I know no one here is doing so, but, through the years I have seen that attitude be prevalent among MA'ers. Remember, it's hard enough as it is against thugs. Add training to those thugs, at the very least, equal to yours, and you got major problems. Boxers are much better trained mentally and physically than they are. Plus they are speacialists, with tons of experience in that area of expertise. I would seriously advise those interested in this to take what you think and try it out with some, if you haven't already. Some good experience will be gained.
True words here. I guess we could use this example. Take Mike Tyson, in the early years. Now, I know skill levels will always be different, but Mike was KO'ing people in the ring, now imagine facing him in the street.
