It does the body good...



On HBO's HBO's Mayweather vs. Marquez 24/7, Juan Manuel Marquez himselves revealed a few of the secrets of his training regimen. The Mexican fighter stated that he lifts rocks in the mountains, visits a hyperbaric chamber, eats raw quail eggs, and drinks his urine.

“I also drink my urine because that’s where a lot of proteins and vitamins are, part of your vitamin intake, and why not drink them again instead of wasting them,” said the light weight champ.

I mean who isn't a stranger to giving your piss a quick taste after a few beers (just to make sure you don't have diabetes) but drinking a whole cup of your own urine seems kind of weird. I mean it's tough to think of a reason that it would be bad for you...it could dehydrate him but I'm sure he takes plenty of fluids, or I guess it could contain toxic metabolites of the various steroids and vitamins he is taking. But the reality is that its probably not doing anything, good or bad. I do find his argument of protein and vitamin efficiency interesting though...hopefully he's remebering to chow down on his semen too...no stone unturned baby!

"Both teams played hard...goodnight and godbless."
