Also as others have said it's about equality. Other classes have skills that have the same effect but no MP cost. Why only Pugilist?
Other melee classes do also have abilities that cost them MP. It's part of the game, you are too hung up on "magic based"=mage, it's a fantasy game many things have a bit of magical explanation surrounding them (including pugilists).
