    Yeah, it's true. It's in his biography. He reckoned cheese originated from the moon, giving him out of this world powers such as his famous speed and power.

    Wow, all that dairy before that kind of exertion? I'm surprised it didn't make him vomit..... but then he is the G.O.A.T.

    Maybe it was a block of G.O.A.T. cheese? :D

    No, but he would drain the blood from a piece of RAW BEEF and he would drink it for stamina. It's documented.

    It was also documented that he would also do this to psyche out the opponent. Lamotta thought he was nuts.

    Cheese? Never heard of this.

    It was said that Jim Jeffries drank an entire case of whiskey to cure himself of Pneunonia.
