Literally no sane doctor would put a prepubescent child on HRT. I mean, it's not unheard of for children that age to experience some degree of gender dysphoria, but only 10-25% of those who do continue to experience it after the onset of puberty.

Even if he was and started transitioning early in puberty it... really wouldn't impact whether or not his dad tried to train him; because a combination of puberty blockers and Testosterone supplements would trigger his body to develop nearly identically to a biological male's.

At a young age you would also need parental support to begin that process, which would mean acceptance, which would mean it would have no bearing on a decision to try teaching him how to fight.
