Has Prince even been a fight?

Im just curious. I just can't picture Prince being in a fist-fight.

Do y'all think he's ever been a fight (other than in childhood) or has he ever mentioned anything about being a fight before? But thanks to Purple Rain, I can definately picture him hitting a bitch.

For some reason I get the feeling that if you punch Prince in face a couple times, instead of him, you'll end up being the one all bruised up and bloody like some kinda of instant karma effect or something.

I'm sure he's been in a few. I hear he's a pretty good fighter, so he must have some experience to back that claim up. Besides, the fact he was a short kid with the name "Prince" suggests he'd have to learn how to fight or else get his ass kicked all the time.
The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

there was that one time that he knocked apples over under the bridge and she threw his earring at him, then that other time he tried to pull his dad off his mom and he got bitchslapped.

and then that time The Kid and Jellybean got into it [as seen in the trailer] -- i'm sure Prince can be pretty mean when he wants to -- just look at the way he plays basketball and guitar

Morris Wilson, a Minneapolis jazz musician who worked with Prince's dad, John L Nelson, said at Prince was a good basketball player and fight "He's very quick, very fast, he could be all over you before you knew what was happening." He got bullied for having a weird name, being a short basketball player, and mixed raced. In the 1981 Rolling Stone magazine interview Prince said "People would say something and we'd end up fighting, I was a good fighter, I never lost, I dont know if I fight fair but I go for it. The girls loved you, and the guys hated you."
Goodnight, sweet Prince.

Someone posted a link to a Jellybean Johnson interview about a year ago. Jellybean said that Morris Day once punched Prince in the face and Prince punched him right back.

It made me think P is a lot tougher than the public image he puts out.

I heard when Prince opened for Rick james, Rick james was pissed because Prince was stealing all the glory. At the end of a show Prince and Rick got into a shoving match, and Prince punched him. Could be true or not, but it came from a good source.

Like I said Jellybean Johnson said he jumped right up after Morris hit him and popped Morris in the face. He may be a better fighter than we think or just has a bad temper.
