they proved it was a myth, but personally whenever I bust a nut, I feel weaker throughout the day and less aggressive

I say you try it and see if it affects you

I've talked to several pros about this and they all agreed that one of the common sources for their marital problems and even divorces is the lack of sex

After a good fap, I usually want to take a nap.(rhyme)

So I think fighters would want to skip training for that day after a good mashing.

testosterone drops slightly after ejaculating. It takes about 1 week for levels to rise. The positive thing about abstinence is that you're ignoring your limbic system and strengthening cortical systems which are important for motivation, thinking, drive, just overall mental sharpness etc...departments that boxers should be strong in. There are psychological aspects to this, probably moreso than just the small bit that is physical, which is oscillating testosterone levels when you're sexually active.

Sexual frustration is a great motivator.
