I remember saying he didn't like boxing because he wanted to remain smart and not lose his head and he liked his nose! Here is an excerpt from Interview Magazine:
SCOTT: Why did you get into kick boxing instead of real boxing?
HANS: As a matter of fact, when I graduated high school I got a scholarship to Washington State where I studied chemistry for a year. I did boxing, fencing, and karate there for about a year. I did pretty well in boxing, but I didn't like it because even if you're fairly good you get hit in the head all the time. I figured if I was going to pursue an academic career it would be stupid to wreck my head. I used to go home punchy everyday. I said the hell with this. I'll do kick boxing karate instead. In karate you can take one punch and it will knock you out, but you're not going to get bam-bam all the time.
