    Kermit Washington had one fight in his life. He had the misfortune of playing in the late 70s, when the liberal national atmosphere created European-style vegetarian long-haired players. In reaction, NBA coaches and assistants ridiculed them to not take anything from opponents, and to use beer instead of drugs.

    For a short time, punching opponents was considered the norm. He simply landed one normal punch, instead of the baby slaps that NBA players usually make, with spectators laughing that they don't know how to fight.
