BoxRec

Ive heard a few world champs over the years and domestic level boxers have been partial to the odd salmon from time to time....Can anyone name a few who smoke....Bit irrelevant but ive always wondered which boxers are smokers and which arent.

i heard he was one of them lol

Smoking Joe Frazier

sorry, couldn't resist

i think i seem to recall Billy Smith saying in his BN piece earlier this year that Ernie had recently quit fags so sounds like he used to like an odd'n. I don't imagine any of them go at it much tho, altho I've read somewhere that Mayorga's been on a good packet or more a day at times.

Des Gargano used to smoke

Seeem to remember reading somewhere that Eamon Magee smoked.

Like a chimney by all accounts, as well as liking an ale or 20.

Michael Maguire, the outstanding amatuer used to smoke!!!

johnny bredahl freely smoked & said it helped his nerves.

kirkland laing loved a spliff, ive seen him at boxing show's year's back puffing on them D he didnt give a monkey's

Daniel Zaragoza smoked like a chimney.

Damn, that is dedication for you.

What's with weighing food though? Surely, Carl would be more interested in how many Calories are what he's eating, how much fat, sugar, salt, etc, rather than the weight of the food?

weighing the food helps you to more accurately determine how many calories you are eating per meal

Benn liked the odd ciggie. Toney smokes cigars. Tyson smoked weed out of training. Tarver smoked crack b4 turning pro. bruno smoked weed after a fight.

Is it true that Loche would smoke on his stool between rounds?

That's probably my favourite boxing story ever, if it is actually true.

Exactly, it's no good knowing how much calories, carbs, protein, fat, sodium etc a food has per 100 grams if you don't actually know how much of that food you're consuming.

didnt he spark up during an interview straight after his fight with forrest i think it was?

from the weight of the food you can judge the fat content, carbs, etc. whereas rough estimates ove r6 meals could have you far off
