    i hear it does well for athletes who do marathons and such, and thought that if it helps them with energy running, or cycling it would help in a boxing ring? any suggestions yes or no?

    It only helps for events 90minutes+. Maybe when boxers had 200 round fights it would've been useful.

    Not 'carb loading' as such, but a high carbohydrate intake is going to be beneficial.
