notwithstanding the fact that I agree with Kid on this, I would wager that his ability to 'whoop some ass' out of a wet-paper bag to be Sisyphean at best.

I don’t know I bet he knows how to scrap a little bit. He looks like one of those pesky guys who doesn’t really take care of himself but he’s been through it enough times that he knows how to throw punch just out of his eagerness. He looks like he’d be fun to fight. I hated trying to train those guys though. They really didn’t listen. Uncoachable. But a lot of fun.

true. sometimes all it takes is the haymaker that lands on a low-hangin' jaw and it's good night, nurse!

Yup

Agreed about the KR assessment, and know the type well. Was one.

Tossed off inner city YMCA boxing team after many warnings and many more asskicking ‘educational rounds’. Totally incorrigible in terms fight discipline. One jab gets through - one face tag - then it’s on! In my angry young world a fight was a fight and rules were only loose suggestions.

Military years brought me around. Adequately trained now, I look back at young me and smh. I can’t remember the names of any of the YMCA coaches now, but I do see they were much more patient with me than I had any right to expect. God bless those fine men.

Kid may have a similar backstory, but without the benefit of military years.

May be true but after a life of multiple fights I learned to not take any opponent for granted. Th lean wiry types can be particularly dangerous if the fight goes to the mat.

I was just being a smartass, but I absolutely agree. I remember back in the day when the Army began to incorporate [Gracie] Jiu-jitsu as its de facto 'combatives' training. I was fucking around with a Ranger friend out in the courtyard in front of our company. I came at him like a raging bull in a china shop and that wee fucker hopped on my back (rear-naked) like that scene with Cary Elwes and Andre in 'the princes bride.' It was hilarious but it taught me an important lesson about underestimating ones opponent.

Agreed. People who have never been in a real fight just dont understand. Experience is the best teacher and you never stop learning.
