I'm 56. I'm not sure what my age, experience, and current skill/fitness level have to do with Mayweather or McGregor, though.

Martial arts and boxing are two different things. Yes, boxing is a "martial art" in the broader sense, but in a narrower sense, it is a sport with a very restrictive set of rules. Nothing taught in mamby-pamby "martial arts" transfers very well to boxing.

I think you put a lot more weight behind your avatar than the rest of us. Quite honestly, I don't think anyone on this forum would recognize it for the statement you hope it makes - no one realizes just what a badassmotherplucker you really are. Dang. Maybe you will just have to tell us...

God damned impressive. No wonder Mayweather isn't fighting you.

Yup. But, that said, I retired about 30 days ago, at the ripe old age of 56. I've been putting my energies into things that I find more important than being the toughest guy on Pelican.
You go guy - get another belt in another goofy, trendy, "martial arts" discipline wherein you never really have to fight. That will make you an expert on even more stuff. And any decent boxer will still kick your ass...
