    Yeah but some fighters fight best when they are relaxed before a fight. I think it truly depends on the individual

    sex before a fight is bad as it makes you weak.....scientific proof not needed

    losing 10ml of blood is bad as it also makes you weak.....scientific proof not needed

    Il'd imagine it does I always just feel that bit more better about myself and confident with a full sack as opposed to if I go on a fap session before a night out. Of course totally different scenarios.

    Yea, I think so as well. I was just saying there may be a bit more to it than just Placebo.



    I wonder if 24/7 will make a big deal out if it a second time around, considering all the hype it got.

    Way back when I was getting my masters in sports physiology, this was a hot topic.

    The general consensus (culled from many studies) was that it's total BS, unless you're talking about 1 hr before the fight. Additionally, sex the day before tends to improve concentration & reflex speed.
    ------------------

    It raises an interesting question: Let's say a fighter went without sex for a week (not a weak :cool:) and then found himself losing in the ring. He's having trouble reacting to his opponent's jabs. So, in between rounds he decided to whack one off.

    Would that be against the rules?

    There might be one instance when sex before a fight could hurt you:

    Having sex with the promoter's wife. :shock:

    According to Angelo Dundee, it's not sex but the chasing it (late nights, alcohol, etc.) that mess up a fighter. Boxer's who are married don't have that issue. Read it in his autobiography.

    Although SRL did say that he abstained from it before fights in his autobiography.

    This is what trainers have been saying for many years. The biggest drain on a fighter pre-fight though can be the chase to find sex. Actually having sex is sometimes only a portion of the overall problem.

    Masturbation would be more of a problem than sex,

    "When aren't you throwing the right man, why???"
