Is it true about hagler

I've heard a couple of times now that hagler was known to eat packets of bourbon creams on the day of a fight.is this true and if so what would he gain from it,is it something to do with sugar intake ?

 

I don't know. I know he used to eat beans on toast before some fights, though.

 

Yea I heard that aswell,I wonder what it was with him and snack foods,he must have been onto something

 

Have there been any other fighter prone to biscuits etc before a fight ?

 

yeh he loved his bourbon creams, he'd wash em all down with a litre of tizer or iron bru.

 

It doesn't really matter what you eat prior to a fight as long as you're getting in a lot of carbs and some protein.

 

He loved eggs

 

Usain bolt claims to eat McChicken nuggets before races. Don't believe him though.

 

Maybe he just liked biscuits..

 

Not before races Id say, but he did say they were his favorite food.

 

hagler did this yes. must of bin a pre-fight ritual that made him feel comfortable lol.

 

Which Bourbon Creams are known for...

 

They're a natural testosterone booster as well, not many people know that.

 

9 carbs per biscuit is damn good. Obviously Hagler had lean beef or chicken or fish prior to a fight as does every athlete but biscuits are a good treat, relatively light on the stomach and are packed with carbs.

 

Sounds like guerilla marketing to me.
