Re: Sex before a fight myth!?!?!?! :D
It's kind of ironic that in their test to see if women really do weaken legs they choose a fighter whose legs are already gone :rolleyes:
I guess to widen the study and get more balanced view they will test again with Winky Wright, Arturo Gatti and Erik Morales :-\

Re: Sex before a fight myth!?!?!?! :D
A couple boys at my club believe this as well. I can't see how it does but he swears it makes him more agressive not having had sex with his girl for a while ;D

Re: Sex before a fight myth!?!?!?! :D
It causes your thighs and calves to cramp up if done a day or so before a fight.
Thats a fact.

Re: Sex before a fight myth!?!?!?! :D
i was watching the joe louis special on hbo and they blamed his loss to max the first time around to fooling around with that blonde dancer the night before?

Cool test, but anyone who has taken a Psychology course knows that the results really can't be taken as fact because the test was not controlled, the test subject had a result already in his mind. He openly said that he WANTED to disprove the myth, so you gotta take this with a grain of salt.

Re: Sex before a fight myth!?!?!?! :D
One thing that's always suprised me about this myth is that almost every boxer accepts it as fact. It's almost like a superstition with them.
Now never having boxed I can't speak from any experience as to whether it does weaken your legs or not but I'm suprised there arn't loads of boxers who make a point of having sex the day before, or even the day of a fight in order to show how confident they are and that they don't believe in superstition.
If I was a world class boxer, I'd be like Paul Hunter the now sadly departed snooker player and boast about how I had sex in the dressing room an hour before the fight!
Then go into the ring with a big grin and the confident stare of a man who knows he doesn't worry about stupid myths and superstitions, even if there's some validity to them.
In effect you'd be saying 'I'm so confident of beating you I don't need to deny myself, I can screw around an hour before the fight and still come in here and kick your ass!'
Now I'm just amazed no boxers ever do that :confused:
I mean even if they were lying and actually didnt have sex before, why not just pretend like they did to get a pschological edge?

It definitely stiffens legs, thats for sure.

Is it the sex though or the actual physical effort involved?
I mean is it any different from say going for a run the night before a fight, or doing squats?
Do you think it's the actual act of ejaculation that causes the legs to weaken rather than the physical act of sex?
-
Re: Sex before a fight myth!?!?!?! :D
Ejaculation merely makes you lose a small bit of testosterone and some nutrients. Easily replacable.
But the physical movements involved make your thighs stiffen badly

Re: Sex before a fight myth!?!?!?! :D
The no sex thing has always been a bit of a myth...more psychological then anything...Though you do have a bit of aggression pent up but more or less due to irritability then anything...
Sex an hour before the fight I can understand the day before..not too sure...I seen then Sport science episode on ESPN...Love how his wife was so casual with it lol

Re: Sex before a fight myth!?!?!?! :D
I believe this theory I was told in the amatuers to take 15 days off before a fight.To tell ya the truth I had sex the night before one of my fight's and to me it felt like I was stuck in the mud.My legs were completely gone by the beginning of the 2nd round.As a result it was my only loss.A professional fighters take somewhere around a month.I've heard the great George Foreman say he would take 72 -78 days of no sexin' before his big fights.But for someone like John Conteh he said it was no big deal for him.He would sleep with woman and party to the early hours of the AM before his fight's.

Re: Sex before a fight myth!?!?!?! :D
i'm no doctor or anything but after doing the deed, oxytocin is created in your body, which makes you real calm.. hence the book "why do men fall asleep after sex".. obviously we all know that calming feeling, and i know that i don't want to do ANYTHING afterwards but just hang out (well depending on the situation but i have a girlfriend so we'll leave it at "just hang out")..
but if you don't do it for a while then you definitely have more agression, it's just natural.. you know when someone says "DAMN you need to get laid" because the person is all pissed off at everything..

Yes it's better to be feelin' mean as hell during a fight (like Clubber Lang). People like that must NEVER get laid.

Re: Sex before a fight myth!?!?!?! :D
During my time with the monks I had a lot of study to be done on Chi, energy, matter and of course where girls pee from if they have no willy.
Think of this, in manly terms if you will, like a laser.
As we are all energy, our manifestations of our surroundings come from the focus of our thoughts. This is quantamn physics, although since I'm not a quantamn physician, I am HMHT (But Please Note - I am NOT Bruce Willis) this may be a little off, in a non-gay way.
If those thoughts of mating were used like a laser to focus on other things (CHI ENERGY HERE) well, something else happens.
So sexual release = loss of Chi, is it a myth? No, it is a fact. It's science.

Only if it's done right.

Re: Sex before a fight myth!?!?!?! :D
I dont have sex for five weeks before a fight. It not just the physical, but mentally it can be a distraction. To be honest being in a relationship during training camp is hard enough. Some other fighters I know dont have sex for 2-4 weeks before a fight. Im old school and take no chances.

You'd need a hard matress or I'd just put my sheets on the floor maybe? soft matress might hurt like but I dunno.
There's always spooning but I'm not really a huge fan ;)

Sure, because like attracts like, the energy flow what you put out you pull in, in a gay or non-gay way.

What about wanking do you stop that too?
Because personally I don't for a second believe it is possible to go 5 full weeks without even a wank,
Simply can't be done, you would get cancer of the testicles and your bell end would explode.

Media conditioning, sex sells.
1 drop of semen takes forty to eighty drops of blood to make, depending on which saggy breasted, big waistlined spiritual guru you believe.

No man, no sex or wankin. It is hard for the first week or two but then all my energy goes into fighting and I think about it as much. There is about a week after a fight that i turn into a small dog and f#ck everthing with a pulse ;D Seriously though, I look for any edge I can get and thats just one of the bigger sacrafices.
