Should Snickers (And other candy) be banned as PEDs for 4 hours before a fight...?

So many upper performing athletes that gorge candy before playing. Marshawn Lynch, one of the best to ever do it, topping that list with his Skittles addiction.

And now Andy Ruiz who admitted gorging on Snickers just before going out there and beating the hell out of Anthony Joshua and "setting physical fitness back 100 years!" (Teddy Atlas)

I know I would have Twix every day at PE, the candy machine was right there by the locker room. Every day. And I would go out there beast mode. Then I would crash an hour later, but it got me through that hour like a beast.

Obviously they're not drugs...but if you're using that sugar rush to give you boatloads of energy for that 36 minutes...? Performance Enhancing Diet? Should they disallow this...?


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The preceding post should be considered complete sarcasm.

This is why Ruiz can’t fight the rematch in the UK.

AJ and Fast Eddie will buy up every Snickers in the UK and put them in a vault before Andy’s plane lands. And any he tries to smuggle in will be confiscated.

Just watch and see... there WILL be something about that in the fine print of the rematch contract!!

The details of the rematch were signed in the original contract, split/venue choice/timeframe/allowed candy.

Or no candy. We just don't know.

NY you can't eat or drink anything other than water in dressing room so AJ was KTFO without Snickers

He wasn’t even allowed to have one before the AJ fight so its not like it makes a difference.

Ruiz only needed to whip out his trusty Snickers before the first bell to power himself to victory.

And before the fight...

“To tell you the truth since I was six years old my dad would always give me this Snickers before every fight and it gives me energy.

So we know he had one, whether he snuck it or not, whatever. He could have stepped out to the bathroom and went to town with that chocolatey goodness. You saw how much energy he had...
