As for being afraid of a blow to the knee.. of course.. if a fight happen... the boxer should be trained for at least 2 months, in trying to avoid those, and find ways to counter the chargers...
Not saying an top speedy heavywight boxer would win everytime ... But as a good chance to win everytime..

If you think 2 months is enough time to stop the whole arsenal of take downs that Jits have, then again, you are wrong.
You saw one takedown, which is the double leg or omote gari in judo. I'm not arguing the fact that damage will be done to take shoot on say Tyson. I'd be an idiot.
Look how many times in Boxing a clinch happens. That is what a grappler wants, to get in real close, from there, taking down an untrained, or rather a 2 month trained boxer is quite easy.
Style versus style was proven over 10 years ago in the octagon. Art Jimmerson, a top 10 fighter, once taken down to the ground by Royce Gracie, tapped not to a submission, not to strikes, but because he couldn't breathe and did not know what to do with someone sitting on his chest.
Enough said.
