Yes, it affects you. It destroys your liver which in turn weakens your kidneys. So, there's your answer.

The fact that you just came back from a 5 month lay off should be even more conservative with the alcohol, you have to bring your body to a high level of competition bro.
Believe me I'm all for getting buzzed with my friends and dancing with girls and having a good time etc but, drinking every weekend is too much when you're trying to compete in boxing at a high level. You will regret it when you're in the ring getting your ass kicked b/c you didn't train to your full potential.
Its like this you want to be the best? Limit your drinking to once a month or so at the most, otherwise risk it and see what happens...hey its all on you..

Alcohol can leave you sluggish and with a bad headache, even a couple days after consumption. Plus it's killing your brain cells and damaging your liver. Worst of all for a boxer is that it's a lot of excess calories. It's going to make you fat, especially if you binge. Boxers can't be fat, you'll be slow as hell and who's to say you'll make weight easy with all that extra fat to cut?

the drinking will slow u down big time. if i drink on a saturday night i feel monday and tuesday pretty much go to waste as far as training is concerned. i feel fine but my body cant reach the level i want it too, and the results of my training suffer. so drinking mess u up both short term and long term. i personally replaced it with weed, much less harmful to the body. only drink on occasion these days.

"Proverbs 20:1 Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise."
Essentially training is to make you stronger, alcohol will only make you weaker, it is poison after all. How many guys are killed in ring but how many people are killed by alcohol every year...
