Hey guys,
I need your help here. I have a bout (amateur) scheduled today at my gym. I've been training hard and have been waiting for this fight, but this morning, I woke up and felt nauseous and dizzy and ****. My fight's in about 2 hours and I still feel the same. I don't want to call it off cuz I don't wanna look like a *****.
Can I do anything to save myself?

Sugar sugar sugar????? that is the complete worst thing you can do before a fight. Maybe some fruit but no sugar.

did u win?

Hey guys, thanks for your help. And you were right it was the sugar. My trainer got all mad at me and started yelling, but I won the fight. Luckily, the guy I fought was 3 inches shorter than me and stocky. He was really slow and kept his hands low the whole fight like he was trying to say he had a good chin, even though we had the headgear on. So, I got the decision, but I was really lucky because I didn't feel right at all.

why sugar?

Sugar usually for burst energy or a *jump start* kind of effect. Not a good long term solution but can help with sluggishness on a slow day.

like as soon as possible say 10 mins before the fight have some chocolate or lollies for a quick boost........
congrats on winning the fight man, you performed well under adversity nicely done.

whats your record and age and weight?

Sugar, chocolate, before a fight? That isn't a very smart idea.

Sugar gives you a short burst of energy, then you crash.

Try eating good foods specially before a fight. After weigh-ins I usually get some pasta, along with a orange juice(Which I dispose of quickly), and then a gatorade. After that it is all water.

Don't fill your body with junk, specially moments before a fight.

Hey Kostya, I am 3-0, that was my third amateur fight. I am 14 years old, 5'8", and 132 lbs. Trust me, I learned my lesson and I plan on competing in the amateurs for a long time because I love to box.

good luck with your career bro, don't eat too much sugar and crap before a fight, thats just nuts!
