Why would anyone want to physically fight? You'd muss up your clothes, ruin your hair, and potentially damage a nail.
I guess I have never felt the angst to wail on another person.

After watching the highlights of last night's fight.....no way would I want someone hitting me. No way would I want someone wailing on me!

TRUE STORY:
I was the head principal at Central. I had an angry parent who was half my age and twice my size. She wanted me (?) to physically fight her in the front hall.
I turned her down quicker than you can say, "Oh, look, Dr. Weaver got her A^^ beat!"
Two hours later I received a call from the downtown Central Office of the Bibb County School system. That same parent had called one of my many bosses and said that I was uncooperative. Wah Wah Wah
I told my boss that indeed, the parent was partially right. I had been uncooperative. I refused to fight her in the front hall. I then stated that I had no chance of winning and thought professionally it would be black mark on my personal resume.
I received an very nice apology from my supervisor at that time.

One year later, the same parent was arrested, charged, and found guilty of stabbing a person to death with a coat hanger. I clipped the article from the newspaper. I laminated the said article. AND then I sent it to my supervisor with a sweet note. "See, I told you I wouldn't have won."

It was fun to hear the excitement about last night's fight though.
