Boxing is awesome and so hardcore! I do traditional chinese martial arts, and I have no illusions about being able to take on even a moderately skilled boxer. Even just the training is more hardcore than anything I’ve done!
16 years in Karate, Judo, Jujitsu, and Kenpo here. My absolute favorite sparring partner I've had was a traditional boxer. He hit like a freight train and getting through his guard required some serious creativity. Boxers are nuts and I really miss that dude.
