If (when) he does get his ass kicked the he could always become a porn star, after all he is a "superhero" in bed.
I think he's going through some sort of mid-life crisis
Don't be haters. He'll do his best. He trains hard and is in good shape. He moves forward in life even through ups and downs. Even if he get's his ass kicked, at least he will try and live his life the way he wants to.
So what if he started a drug binge. I used to idolise him too. Don't be so judgemental, you never know what awaits you or i around the next corner of life.
