I wouldn't get overconfident. If you get caught on the receiving end of a boxers punch--you are going to be fu$#$#k up. They can hit without gloves it's just that they aren't used to getting hit. Same thing with a grappler, don't get overconfident. If you get thrown on the street, you are going to be fu$#k up because their is no mat to cushion your fall. If you get pile drived on the street you will probably end up in the emergency room.
