Bear Grylls says if you're dehydrated by 2% performance is decreased by 20%. True?

I mean you could never verify or dispute this argument based on how it's worded, how can you ever gauge if someone's performance dips by 20%? what is a 100% performance for that competitor? that being said i would most certainly agree that being dehydrated would be a huge problem for a boxer, but so would being over hydrated, it's on the boxer and his corner to walk the fine line

False. Last year in a desert in Nevada by myself. I was attacked by a group of 10 masked men and I was completely dehydrated I hadn't drinked any water for like 7 hours because I was lost and I beat like 3 of them down with ease while I found a way to escape. I had all that energy being dehydrated for that long so I believe adrenaline > dehydration.
It might be a factor but it can be overcome with will and desire.
