Does having a religion make you better at boxing?

[Trrmo]

7 days could mean 7 days as decided by god, which could be any amount of "human" time

..

thats just a so typical cop-out when the scripture doesnt fit the reality, change the meaning of it, so one day doesnt mean one day, but 1000 years or something.

If your serious about the sport you would do this anyways, you don't need the koran to tell you not to eat pig or drink alcohol.

No the reason why most of the top fighters are religious is that they were also generally from poor socioeconomic backgrounds. These poorer areas are usually highly religious, so it does go hand in hand, they aren't better boxers because of it, they were just raised that way. Aetheism is an informed choice and the very essence of a fighter, after all we are challenging the beliefs that billions of people around the world hold.

that is such a typical snobby atheist upper class thing to say "religion is for poor people" is basically what you just said

id like to see the gym you go too, probably some health club where women in short shorts slap the pads to work up a sweat

Doesn't help you in 1 bit imo.

Your spiritual preparation in boxing or anything you do is as important if not more important than the physical. And your body and spirit are not disconnected. If one is lacking than the other will be lacking also and not in any small way. In fact your spiritual preparation is more important than the physical. And nobody wins or loses passes or fails anything except by God. And your religion determines who are also.

Example

Propaganda is a more effective and important tool of war than is a main battle tank. But of course propaganda is no good if it's lies and it's counter to Christ it will have the opposite effect. For this reason a modestly equipped divsion spiritually preparded would almost always defeat a 3 splendidly equipped spiritually depressed divisions. And if your Catholic your religion is going to determine entirely who are as fighter. Your whole being and your soul. It's the most important thing even in boxing.

During training show me a fighter who goes out and binge drinks, I know Hatton does, but in his time off.
