boxers have to literally harden their muscles around their vital organs because some of the impacts they take have the capability to stop their heart and/or cause internal bleeding. Generally speaking I think a boxer could beat a soldier/marine/commando in a boxing match but in a fight to the death a soldier would kick the boxer in the groin and gouge out his eyes before he could set up a fancy combo.
Reply:First off, I've never heard any of these claims coming from any boxer.





Secondly, Marine, Army, Navy, whatever personel are trained in very abbreviated versions of martial arts. The seals are now training in BJJ and only in a limited capacity. Hand to hand training only makes up a small part of overall military training. So in that sense, it is unlikely that a regular marine/seal would be able to stand in with a professional fighter, who trains completely for hand to hand combat.
Reply:You tell those boxers to watch the Kimbo Slice vs Ray Mercer fight. Even a street fighter with no formal training in Martial Arts could defeat a former heavyweight boxing champion of the world in everything goes type of fight. Boxers are good in what they are doing and that boxing, that's it.
