Brawler:
brol'-er (Qere midhyanim; Kethibh midhwanim, "quarrelsomeness"; amachos, "not fighting"): Spoken of the quarrelsome woman; "a contentious (the King James Version "brawling") woman" (Pr 21:9). He who seeks the office of a bishop should be "no brawler" (paroinos the King James Version "given to wine," Tit 1:7); "not contentious" (the King James Version "not a brawler," 1Ti 3:3; Tit 3:2).
Brawler: One Who Is Inclined to Fight.
A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a BRAWLER, not covetous. (1 Timothy 3:2-3)

an adjective, lit., "tarrying at wine" (para, "at," oinos, "wine"), "given to wine," 1Ti 3:3; Tts 1:7, AV, probably has the secondary sense, of the effects of wine-bibbing, viz., abusive brawling. Hence RV, "brawler."
