Does Khabib abstain from sex for 90 days before fights like Muhammed Ali?

It's called "Ventre vide, couilles pleines'' : ''Empty belly, full balls''.
A way to be the sharpest possible

scientifically proven false many many times over.
Its not biology. In biology testosterone increases with sex an with ejaculating.
Having sex with another person actually increases testosterone significantly.

Here is just one of the many hundreds of peer studied science papers that have been published on the subject.

Where do people keep getting these false idea from. It would be nice if people knew what they were talking about.

Male and female salivary testosterone concentrations before and after sexual activity.

Abstract
Salivary testosterone concentrations were measured in male and female members of four heterosexual couples on a total of 11 evenings before and after sexual intercourse and 11 evenings on which there was no intercourse. Testosterone increased across the evening when there was intercourse and decreased when there was none. The pattern was the same for males and females. Early evening measured did not differ on the two kinds of days, suggesting that sexual activity affects testosterone more than initial testosterone affects sexual activity.

T levels naturally rise during masturbation and sex, and fall to normal levels after orgasm. Ejaculating from masturbation doesn’t have any noticeable, direct effects on serum T levels, however. This means that T levels don’t get lower the more you masturbate.
In fact, a studyTrusted Source published in 2001 found that refraining from masturbation for three weeks may cause a mild increase in T levels. Another studyTrusted Source from 2003 found evidence that T levels may increase by nearly 150 percent seven days after you’ve stopped masturbating.

A 2007 study on rats found that frequent masturbation lowered androgen receptors in their brains. Androgen receptors help your body use testosterone. Another study on ratsTrusted Source showed that frequent masturbation increased estrogen receptors. These assist your body in using estrogen. Over time, frequent masturbation may affect the overall ability of your androgen receptors in utilizing testosterone.

One moment please

Many elite fighters past present and future swear by this

Muhammed Ali is one of them

I wonder, considering Khabib is Muslim and the common skepticism among fighters, maybe Khabib is one of the last guys still believing in this

Done it on and off myself for many years and can attest to the legitimacy when it comes to improving your fightin ability and overall athletic performance

Bit weird to me how so many Modern martial artists are seemingly blind to transmuting sexual energy towards martial arts or fighting in general

Let's be honest here, sherbro... You didn't willingly abstain from having sex, it just sorta happened

True about masturbation,
but were talking about sex baby.
Hense this part "Having sex with another person actually increases testosterone significantly."
The question was does he abstain from sex.

Baby? Same shit. Testosterone goes up when you don't ejaculate.

Sex only increases testosterone temporarily. I posted long term studies, you posted short term studies.

Don't use words like "baby" when you're discussing sex and it's effects on testosterone with other men. It's weird and awkward.

It's all in your mind man. Science already disproved this myth. Just don't have sex right before or max the day before. No need to abstain for 90 days lmao.
