        Consuming a bit of alcohol every now and again has been proven to provide health benefits. It's only bad when you over do it.

        And guys like Pavlik, Manny and Oscar don't seem like raging alcoholics to me.
        I dont even drink because I cant stand the taste, but I dont think theres anything wrong with even getting buzzed as long as you dont go drivin or anything afterwards.

        we all know theres a limitation though. unless the guy gets noticably drunk or has a Ricky Fatton love for beer, I dont see why drinking would be considered bad at all.

          Well that's what I'm getting at. He's no De la Hoya, and never will be. But we all know him, have seen him, and know he's clean. I'm sure there are tons of amateurs out there who live the same lifestyle, but less than half of us know who they are.

          Juan Diaz keeps it clean.
          Nope, he had a beer once, when he was 16. He's disqualified. Goddamn alchie.

            Precisely. Hatton is the prime example of a fighter who drinks too much. And what does Oscar drink nowadays? A glass of wine with his steak and lobster dinners I imagine. It's not like he's drinking a fifth of JD after every meal.

              I bet a lot of these guys that you think are "clean" secretly indulge themselves behind the scenes.

              Probably a lot of them smoke marijuana occasionally.

                I'd rather hear the dirty living stories.

                I mean a thousand times more interesting. Johnny Tapia's mild stories would be better than some of these clean living folks best ones.

                VIVA MI VIDA LOCA.

                  Because he is more famous for his ******ity( who the fuck cleans their contacts with his/her mouth) than his boxing....

                    Geting ****faced once in a while is one of the worst things you can do to your body, because its not use it.
