Are the relentless energy shots any good?

Should i take energy shots before a fight?

• So i had a boxing bout today and won. I was extremely happy but before and during the fight i felt really tired. Now my conditioning is pretty good i can last 3 3 minute intense rounds and all i had to do today was 1.5 min rounds, witch was really confusing. But for some reason i just felt tired all day and im thinking that since i dont take any energy shots or ever gatorade should i take maybe 2 five hour energy shots before a fight? Or any other different shots. Btw i have a good 9 hours of sleep a day, but i did train very hard the whole week except thursday i just sparred for an hour. I also had some pasta and chicken 3 hours before a the fight but made sure not to eat to much. Should i have just note at at all except for fruits? Thanks for the help guys

• Answer:

  Those energy shots don't help with anything or with anyone. You're obviously already fit so it's your style you need to look at... Are you coming foward throwing punches at a moving target too much? Are you constantly on your feet moving around too much? These are ways to slowly ware yourself out. you need to fight at your own pace even if you can last intense rounds. It's about being comfortable and in rhythm in the ring
