A member asked:

I am a boxer, why is it advised not to have sex or masturbate the night before a fight? does masturbating or sex leave a man weak?

Dr. Francisco R. Rodriguez answered

Specializes in Urology

Sex before fight: Obviously you are going to use some energy in masturbating and having sex and loss of rest and sleep. This is nothing you can't recover from by taking a good nap before the fight.
