Would taking one of those 5 hour energy shots before a fight be cheating?

Pretty sure that's illegal for fighters to do. They get tested after the fights for **** like that.

Ever tried one of those things? I don't think getting a headache and feeling your heart palpitate unnaturally will help you knock a guy out.

NO athletes drink that ****. They actually dehydrate you and would hurt you after a couple rounds. They drink water for a reason.

Seriously there's better things to drink for energy than some whack caffeine drink that'll dehydrate you before half the fight is over.

If anything, I wonder if fighters take N0 products before a fight. Is that illegal?

I've never tried it before.
