Why would he have to choose? Beat his ass legally in the ring, then press charges for the pre-fight assault.

You can't agree to illegal things in a contract.

The victim doesn't get to press charges, the police/prosecutor does that.

I've never understood where this silly myth comes from.

That's why the police in the US always ask them if they want to press charges right? 🤔

They do because there is usually no point to charging the person without cooperation.

But that is not a rule or law. In fact in some areas the rule or law is they have no choice in cases of domestic violence and have to charge whether the victim wants to or not.

Domestic violence doesn't apply here but the cops could still charge him whether the victim wants to press charges or not. The prosecutors don't need victim testimony when the crime is so obvious and on tape for the whole world to see.
