gnasher16 29,662 Posted July 1, 2016 Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 (edited) No need to get excited about it mate we,re only chatting . When a fighter " peaks " his body its for 1 moment of 1 day of 1 week........the timing of that " peak " is vital to his performance you cant ask a fighter to peak 2 days in a row its just not possible ! I hate to use it as an example but its the only one that will make any sense.....when dogs are matched at weight they weigh in usually in the pit itself and are fighting within minutes of making weight.....they are totally peaked out,physically healthy and at their best fighting weight............same could apply to boxing.

Funny thing is Don Mayfield used to dry them out that much they would look like corpses but he was that expert at training them they'd be a powerhouse in the pit.

Mayfield was a great conditioner in his day but would be left behind in todays times back then the idea was drying a dog out would create more haemoglobin in the blood which using dex or azium would coagulate in order to carry more oxygen and possibly bleed less.....it actually has nothing to do with the intake of h20 a dog will drink very little water infact on the tapering down days they sometimes wont drink any at all thats how you know a dogs in good shape but its like anything techniques that seemed sensible at the time get left behind nobody in their right mind would dry a dog out today it would be like racing a 200k Ferrari low on coolant ......drying out is for bodybuilders a fighting man or dog needs all the organs tuned and hydrated.
