    i know this thread has probably been done loads, but instead of just your opinions what do actual fighters say about this

    firstly (no homo), this seems like a valid point about when a fighter should stop, if ever before competition or if it suits people differently

    muhammad ali apparently went months without sex as did marciano believing it would make them invincible

    joe calzaghe said he would only stop 1 week before a fight and its not like is aggresion levels were decreased, seemed more increased

    roy jones says he would have any sex before a fight but dunno how long before

    pacquiao stays away from sex 3 weeks before a fight (unless he's with someone other than his wife) haha

    and im guessin tyson would be ****ing in his changing room before the fight
    if he had his way

    and most of u probably just saw the video with chris byrd, seemingly proving for him it made him stronger (what a man) (no homo) :D

    so any of you guys know of any other dudes who stay away from it or if others think its pointless

    I'd advise anyone who isnt sure on this subject to empty their sack and I mean completely empty it the night before your match.

    Let us know if you won your fight or not.

    Someone actually did a study on this and found it makes zero difference, but I'm sure there's a placebo effect (e.g., people think it will help, so it does).

    I have seen a study about this , i think it was with Chris Byrd . If i remember correctly ( i probably don't) Chris was punching harder after sex because of the testoterone.

    I know Bute don't have sex 1 month before his fight

    Bullocks, as long as it`s a couple of nights before your fight it`s Ok, just to prevent being too relaxed on fight night.

    Fighters should be ****ing regularly, it helps concentrate and keep your mind sane.
