[ Kim's first instinct is to say no. He's kept up his work-out routine over the years, but that's mostly been a healthy use of the Precinct treadmill, or running outside when Revachol's weather was particularly nice and he wanted to get some fresh air. But he tries not to neglect other areas of fitness, and he is trained in hand-to-hand; you have to be, for the job, and he's had to use it more than he would like. His style of fighting is less brute force, more quick, nasty movements and prodigious use of chokeholds than anything else, but it's true that it's been many years since he's actually trained for it.
Now that he's here, in a place where he may well get in a fight in the near future, it's probably wise to brush up some of those skills. ]
...maybe, [ he concedes. ] It might be a good idea to brush up my skills, all things considered. I'm a little rusty.
[ Which is to say, he's going to train well before he ever steps into a mock fight with Kamui or Harry. He has his pride. He's the sort of man who, if he ever enjoyed such economic bounty to be able to hire professional cleaners, would clean his apartment from top to bottom before allowing someone else to touch it. ]
