Question
in your sport do you eat certain stuff because i am doing a boxers diet on a project and i need to no what they should eat and do eat do you think you can help me out

Answer
Every fighter is different, but for the most part a high protein diet is necessary for muscle repair due to all the exercise that is being performed.  If a fighter has trouble with energy levels then many times they will supplement with vitamins, and the day of the fight will drink pedialyte.

Thanks,
