It could involve more than "going a few rounds." You might wind up permanently disabled or on a slab.

If you go looking, the bad guy, if there is one there, has a tremendous tactical advantage. You are vulnerable to ambush or, if there are more than one goblin, being flanked. Surprise greatly favors the bad guy.
