Can you WIN against a Boxer in a Street Fight?

This question is always being asked to boxers all the time. People think that because you are a boxer or a fighter, they want to test themselves against you in a street fight. However, I've never had anyone say they wanted to street fight with me because they know they would get knocked out

Do you know anyone that would wanna “test” their self against a boxer?

I don’t wanna have a street fight with anyone BTW 😆

[johngr]

No reasonable person would want to have a streetfight with anyone

[DLsigno]

A boxer also don't want to pick a fight 90% of the time

[SavageGameHawk]

I’d just be grateful to spar with a champion 😂 not in a street fight setting tho lol 😂😂

In my 23 experience of living, the only people that instigate street fights have no idea how to fight and have a very fragile masculinity complex; a real man wouldn’t get emotional enough to want to his somebody over his poor hurty feelies

[OriginalBernieBro]

No professional boxer ought to engage in such shenanigans as a street fight your opponent should pay his dues just to get in the ring with you. Don’t fight anyone for free!

As a boxer that has had a lot of unfair fights with non-trained ppl. It feels weird because its almost like they arent trying to hurt you or they cant defend themselves. Like beating up someone helpless. All fun and games until you end up in jail lol.

Agreed. When i was out at nightclubs and some guy decided to dislike me because he was drunk...my mates would say to him...mate..hes a boxer..and after that nothing happened. Also, if you have done what it takes to step into ring, you dont want to fight on the streets or a club..but you feel so calm if faced with a challenge..because you know what you can and will do. It results in....no fights. I was not a boxer, i was an amateur boxer and worked for a living...but before boxing, i was in lots of street fights. Once i did boxing, i learnt discipline. No more street fights

As a fighter myself I use to try and fight people in highschool who did boxing and other fighting sport and often I just wanna see their skills but when I became a fighter I realised that fighting people not in the ring is not okay and that just because you can fight does not mean you should be fighting people to show you can fight. I only fight in the ring because I love the sport and thats how it should be

Tony your inspiring personality always push us to go through hardships and not to surrender 😊👍

The only contact I want to have with this gentleman boxer is to shake his hand and thank him for his knowledge he shares.

I had a lot of street fights before i started boxing. After boxing, street fights are like slow motion. You see everything before it happens.

Pretty much everyone I’ve met who’s a fighter is cool and chill af

Im glad it’s very long ago I heard someone say that boxing won’t bring you anything in a streetfight. A couple years ago - I’m glad not anymore - there used to be people saying : I’m a streetfighter and I would knock a boxer out bc they don’t know how to fight in the streets. Damn so cringe and idiotic when people say that. Boxers are literally trained fighters

[fatpurp]

this is so true. If you wanna fight a boxer, go to a gym, train for a year THEN spar properly with a boxer. You'd probably still get KO'd but at least there's some protection

[Chebab-Chebab]

People want to fight me because I'm a golden retriever.

[manubishe]

Yeah, it ain't wrestling - it targets the face, which is used in a work/service environment.

[POOKIE]

The thing is, even if you land a punch, a boxer is no stranger to getting hit.

Tony, I'm a 1500 rated chess player. That would be like me betting my rent money against an international grandmaster. I'd probably would lose within 1 minute!

I actually knew this drunk guy who genuinely liked getting into street fights for fun, and he once asked me to fight because he wanted to test my martial arts skills.
I told him that, 1- I don't play at fighting, and 2- Him being drunk puts him at a great disadvantage and it would be too easy for me.
He finally understood what I was saying and stopped asking 😏
