That's quite the judgment, Jeff. I'm thinking that you may have gotten caught up in yourself.

You read way, way too much into that statement. Just yanking his chain...

I'd hazard a guess that when in my prime I'd incur less damage being confronted by a skilled boxer than a skilled MMA.
My thoughts, anyway.

I agree whole heartedly. In a street fight, bar fight, or what have you - with no rules, no referee - the MMA guy will do a lot more damage.
We are, however, discussing a boxing match. Or at least most of us are, while some sniveling punk is doing his best to drown us out with his cries for attention.
Rod - no one cares about your belts. The only thing now "painfully obvious" about them is that you somehow escaped the humbleness and humility that is developed through true mastery and the hard work necessary to obtain it. Your attitude here is more indicative of someone who "earned" these levels in a video game. Or maybe you've been telling your mom to buy the cereal boxes that say "kids! - free inside! your very own ninja belt! collect all five colors!".
