    Steak and veggies is junk food?
    Since when
    Falafel is only chick peas fried in vegtable oil topped with cucumber sauce,just straight veggies is just straight veggies,just straight steak is just straight steak.
    A proper cheese steak is chopped steak with american cheese on an Amaroso roll with peppers and onion and sauce of the tomato.
    Im not getting the junk food part
    Now if I was recomending fast food joints,youd have a point,because as good as they taste,most of those fries are suicide as far as fat content,I would have mentioned Chinese food,but generally,I either go for quantity,or just any place thats a whole in the wall in that cities Chinatown that isnt serving duck.I like ducks,and even if I didnt,theyre fatty as hell anyway.
    But regardless,this is what your eating on the road,wether you like it or not,you probably cant afford a private chef,and room service is probably worse for you if the hotel your in even has it.

    Japan-find a way to bring your own food,except for maybe hibachi style,it was either just squirming very recently,and I do mean squirming,or is a variation of American food that is 5 times more unhealthy then the American version.
    What these people will do to a poor innocent doughnut will make you get a clogged artery just looking at it.
    Also,avoid pizza,they put corn on it for some reason Ive never fathomed
    Go with the hibachi resteraunt

    Why would you encourage a fighter to eat Pizza, Burgers and Cheese Steaks?

    Exactly my point. He's listing a bunch of high-fat, oily foods and saying it's healthy because there's a vegetable in it.

    Exactly my point. He's listing a bunch of high-fat, oily foods and saying it's healthy because there's a vegetable in it.
    And you exactly missed my point
    Your in down for mostly 3 days,you come in probably late the night before the weigh in,you have the weigh in/interview/autograph session the next day,if your smart you showed up under weight.After the weigh in this probably the only unsupervised time youve got. The next day is the fight,and they cant wait to send you home the next morning.You dont have all day to be traipsing all over the city your in. So youd best know where your going and what your planning to eat in advance,because if left to themselves boxers just end up eating in the nearest diner.
    Now diner food tastes good,but if you want to talk high oil content.............

    I dunno TM, but my diet the day before and prefight has nothing to do with time and convenience, and everything to do with loading up properly on carbs and the right amounts of sugars to have the energy I require to fight at my best.
