Why do men take off their shirts before beating each other?

let the other man smell the sweat easily ..
bigger chance of ending up in a brokeback cowboy scenario

It's just how it's done:

Well duh, blood is very hard to get out, I don't want him staining and ruining my shirt. 🙄

That's the sixth rule of Fight Club.

We can’t be held back by a thin cotton layer of cloth.

Sexual foreplay?

Suppressed homoerotic desires.

The only reason that it should be the case is that a shirt can be grabbed and held on to. If you take it off then it's harder for your opponent to grapple with you. Plus the likelihood is that your shirt will get torn to shit during a fight.

only try hards to that stupid shit haha.
If a guy starts taking his shirt off before trying to attack you. Get to him while he is undressing and finish it before it even starts
