While the police officer in question may have been showcasing his impressive boxing skills, his actions have been met with a mixed response Although some have praised his athleticism and dedication to the sport, others have criticized him for having more confidence in himself than his skills suggest. However, the need for officers to train in any combat sports is beneficial given the amount of crime that is plaguing society.
