Last year before the fight of Manny Pacquiao against Timothy Bradley, there was a snippet that I read in the papers about the habit of Bradley. A day before the fight, he stops taking a bath. Readers like me assumed that the boxer may be trying to ferment his body odor which, I believe, can affect the discretion of his opponent. I don’t think I would be at ease fighting toe to toe someone who has body odor. I’m not saying it is true but I had read it in a major newspaper.

This is interesting but as far as conspiracy theories go, anything applies. This makes me recall me a brutal civil was in a certain African country where combatants on one side used to fight naked terrorizing their opponents. There is a certain deterrent that comes with such bohemian tactics.

All have their own characteristics. Somebody could fight, some do not
