boxers on marijuana?

[JOINTMASTER5]

hey, i havea really reallly good feeling that james toney smokes before he fights, im not saying that no 1 else does, but who else feels the same? any other boxers you think might smoke?

[Ganj]

You think so? I imagine smoking weed before a fight would be harmful to your performance because it's not exactly a performance enhancing drug, like steroids. James Toney is simply a hardcore mofo. He might smoke weed when he's not training though?

[JOINTMASTER5]

i stricktly heard he smokes right before the fight to get blasted, really blasted, then fights, how can it mess u up if you also train with it?

[Ganj]

I'm just asking you think about it. Marijuana combined with an exhausting sport like boxing. It's probably not wise to smoke it before a fight. I'm sure his trainer would agree. To be the best takes great responsibility, even if it means passing up the blunt. I know I wouldn't do it, but I'm also not a professional boxer.

Also, reaction time wouldn't be at top shape. :rasta:

[tokin'smoker]

man, after a good toke, i can't even walk in a straight line, i don't know how the hell anyone would be able to jump up and down, dodge fists and punch a moving object. shit.

[MacWQ33]

Would definitely help with the pain aspect. I've worked out while lit, and you can go for longer, because you don't really feel your muscles burning...you feel it after though lol.

Anyway...Tyson's been caught with trees multiple times, and coke and shrooms (go figure) before. And Roy Jones Jr. was featured in a song "I Smoke, I Drink", lol, pretty self explanatorty.

But, yeah, I definitely don't doubt a few guys might get high before. But I would definitely say the majority get high otherwise.

dude how dov yyou work out higgh i cant do that tsthit. i end up becnghin like 30 poinds less than normal


i would get the livning shitb beeat out of me if i was higb and boxed

[weedmaster]

boxing is all about speed and reactions,no pro would be that stupid,also it takes along time to leave the system, so any drug test would show up even after a few days.

Well, once you get used to weed (I can see by your typing that you might be new to it LOL)...you can do whatever. I've done it like once or twice, but I got really into it and pounded away. And then there's basketball, which sometimes when I smoke, my reaction time and concentration definitely increases and I can run the court.

[JOINTMASTER5]

i duno bro, im asking this because i box as well, and everytime i smoke some good sativa haze i just rip asss in the ring, i cant feel me getting exhausted, cant feel my body pain, and my reaction time is brilliant, it also opens up many thought chambers for me i start ripping crazy combos, my opinion i duno maybe im just different, i also run alot, and only sleep for 3 hours a day, i guess every 1's just different tho wen it comes to weed

[buddah123]

i cant evne run amile when im high i dont gev you guys

[MacWQ33]

good sativa haze

I was going to mention that. An Indica isn't going to do much justice with any physical activity, but a Sativa is what increases the focus and just provides a head change and not a body load.

different brains means everything i guess? you could do irreparable damage by nullifying your body like that. just because you can't feel it doesn't mean you're not taking a pounding.

[JOINTMASTER5]

i was once told that thought manipulates energy.

[Ganj]

i've always believed that thought is energy. good or bad? you choose.

[JOINTMASTER5]

i need some shrooms man, badly, gods telling me to get them, or else i wuldent b having dreams constantly of runing thru a shroom garden, and if dreams are wat u think of during the day, im thinkin of doin it for a reason, I NEED SHROOMS! GAHHH!

hello mate,im 38 i dont fight no more but when i used to compete(full contact thai boxing)most of us used to blaze a doobie b4 a fight it relaxed us and put us in the zone:thumbsup:

[Reefer Rogue]

I have marijuana on my boxers.

[JOINTMASTER5]

exactly, its like a shaolin fighting zone i get into, its the ebst feeling ever, and the more i work out the more into the world i seem to get, 10x better than runners high, i duno it feels like boxing on ecstacy, i feel like i see the sport for more wat it is than wat it looks like, kinda hard to explain

[Light It Up]

duh tyson smokes.

put this together:

SUPER munchies while fighting
nearest thing is ear

[JOINTMASTER5]

ROFL!:rastasmoke:

[User Name Here]

yeah im defenseless when I smoke.

[orangeman]

I don't believe anyone smokes marijuana before they fight. I mean why would you get high...and then fight. That's just ruining your high if you ask me. I could never fight high, it's like I'm paralyzed. Marijuana is a peace drug and fighting under the influence usually should be an 'only if you have to' situation.

[JOINTMASTER5]

i gues you missed my point, i dont see boxing as fighting at all, a street fight is all out, boxing is more of a chess match, and the chess match for me just gets better when im smokin sativas, i get into very relaxed zone and actually end up boxing better, my opinion tho from experience

belive it mate,i never look at it like fighting its more like a game,trying to out wit one onther,and when your training it lets you train harder and puts you in the zone,i always get hyper when i smoke it feeds me i never couch out even on a nice indica.iwas competing from the age of 13 till i was 35 when my licence run out,i still train every day and smoke 4 grams i love it orangeman,by the way your grows looking good,:stoned: :thumbsup: peace

[Brett1038]

yeah, i could see where some people do it, when smokin nice sativa stuff i get more creative i feel like and playing sports, especially basketball i think i can sometimes do better when high

edit: actually i have a friend who smokes and boxes, i forgot about that :stoned:

but yeah he is an amaetuer boxer with a manager and everything and he also grows some nice KB :jointsmile:

[Diary of a Madman]

This working out on weed shit comes up all the time. I have this to say...

There are some minor psychological effects like, thinking your endurance goes up, some people even say it regulates your breathing (mmm.... ok>?).

But riddle me this, havent any of you been punched in the fucking face while high????? I am pretty much sober after that (same goes for sex, with myself and others). Also, with trainers around that would call you a dipshit and being inside a no smoking facility with hundreds of thousands of dollars on the line, I think the boxer would probably just wait till after. Do you know what kind of insane fucking cardio they have to output? They tweak their diets to the most minute little detail, I think they would consider breathing tar into that equation.

I heard Tito Ortiz smokes sometimes, but probably not before a fight in his fucking dressing room.

Come to think of it, I participate in sports after I get stoned too. It doesn't effect my performance, but I'm not a professional either nor am I very athletic, so my opinion isn't consequential. When I get high, I like to "couch out," as xxxhazexxx put it.

Lol thanks and yeah I realize everyone is different so I'll just speak for my self on this one. I can't fight for shit high, flat out lol.

well thats wat im tryna say, i box when im high getting punched or not, and i believe many pro boxers train with weed, there just that good, maybe its the key to some of the champions that makes their fighting style different? if every 1 fights the same the whole chess game of boxing is ruined, thats why eveyr 1 needs to have their own unique style, i know for a fact boxing on sativa gets my brain alot ore open, my guard alot tighter, punches stiffer, and combos just flow naturally

[JOINTMASTER5]

lol alot of angry ppl posted angry shyt on here? did u guys recently lose a fight fight or smething? i didnt ask for ignorance i asked for ppl relating tot he same shit, in other words, im asking active ppl that box if they smoke and box, im not askin fat asses that sit in chairs all day long if they think is possible for them or for science.....lol

Now all of us are guilty of posting inconsequential material.

[JOINTMASTER5]

lol.....

[Diary of a Madman]

i didnt know tysons been caught with that stuff, i dont know the other guy tho, anyways, i dont think that any of em smoke before a fight.

Wow, Tyson got caught with a shit ton of drugs? LOL. No wonder
a) he's a fucking criminal and
b) Most of us could probably beat his ass now, and he's only like 35. Boxer's used to come out of retirement like formean at such an old age it seemed.

Well, like I said, there are some psycho. effects. I guess what I wanted to say was this.......If you run 2 miles, and running 2 miles is what you normaly do, then smoking will make you go on autopilot. But if you were going to run from say, the nazi's, in a life or death situation (and if I was a pro boxer, I would have to consider my match life or death), then I wouldnt want to put myself on autopilot, or take that 1% capacity away from my lungs. Thats all im saying, might not make you 100%.

If I punch another human, I am instantly 100% sober, maybe just me.

hell give it a shot and let us know... psychonaut!
