does numbing your hands gives advantage in actual boxing fight?

[miron_lang]

Of course it's an advantage, anything that allows you to take more pain in a combat sport is wrong IMO.

Yep. As Bigragu explained boxing is pain. And anything that masks that pain is an advantage.

BTW, most states in the US have ban this drug in boxing matches, even Nevada has followed suit. I believe all boxers should be natural. No pain injections, no PEDs, nothing.

BUt the USADA and WADA says it's not illegal to use, go figure. The plot sure thickens.

What the xylocaine/lidocaine drugs do.

-Increase pain threshold
-Sensation of euphoria
-Feelings of invincibility
-Failure to recognize injury
-psychological stimulation


This is a big discussion now on other boxing boards. And not everyone that is saying that this shit is an unfair advantage is a Pacman dikrider. Bigragu isn't one and neither am I. In fact I have been pretty hard on Pacman for refusing random blood test. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

i'm confused


You realize that Floyd is the one using xylocaine and not Pacquiao right? for his hands?

I believe the topic is about Mayweather or even DLH who used it before. What does Pac has to do with Floyd or even Oscar using drugs for their hands?

Believe it or not it is more harmful then good in the long run...Aside from the whole using to fight issue...From what I understand the joints in your hand become dependent on the stuff...Often becoming sore all the time because of joint swelling...

That's what I'm saying, don't get me wrong - it is cheating... but if you have ruined hands it's just allowing you to use your hands in the way that a normal person without damaged hands would.

PEDs/Plaster wraps take you ABOVE the level of a normal person... so whilst this is bad, PEDs and loaded wraps are far worse in my opinion.
