It's probably not a good idea to get punched in the head, but go for it

Nah, within 3 months you'll be better at boxing that anyone who never boxed. Just a bit of martial art training is a huge difference vs no training at all. If you're in good shape and motivated you can reach a decent casual level and after a couple of years you'll be good at it.
Yeah there are going to be 15 years olds that will beat your shit without breaking a sweat at first but don't let it filter you.

Too late for what? To compete? Probably. Even then try it. I started wrestling at 17 and was still p good at it.

if you are still getting into fist fights in your 30s, you made some very bad life choices

You'll not find anyone willing to teach you real boxing, but you can certainly go to a boxing gym where they do that shit for cardio

90% of the people itt watched some ippo and think they know everything about "real" boxing.
The best thing you can do is go talk to a boxing gym near you and ask.

explain why in prison, older guys beat up young inmates

Because older guys that end up in prison are people who are more likely to have fighting experience and they had the time to get that experience.
A young inmate who is proficient at some martial art will also beat up most other inmates.
Leave your pride at the door if you're going to try boxing.

Depends, do you want to be a 40 year old guy who knows how to box? If so then you gotta do it anyway.

I'm 30 and I'm considering going into tai chi for the first time once I'm done my current cut.
