First of all, race has no real weight when it comes to fighting. The reason why blacks are/were feared more is because that we supposedly grew up fighting. There are other races that grow up TRAINING, but doesn't mean they were fighting...
But blacks having to fight isn't really the case as much anymore... but in some ways it is. Whites are a lot bolder because a lot of them are riding the MMA/BJJ wave but a lot of blacks still train in Martial Arts or Boxed before all this shyt got big
I trained in boxing/MMA as a kid (I don't think I'm much of shyt right now but I DONT KNOW, haven't been in a real fight since HS) but most my homeboys trained in boxing or Muay Thai. I still do bagwork and spar with my non-black friends here and there.
My ex even did BJJ as a kid and her homegirl boxes armatures

.
But training still doesn't mean you can't take an L. I did it for the workout and as a just in case precaution
