Juan Manuel Marquez Drinks His Own Urine To Prepare For Fight Against Floyd Mayweather Jr

Juan Manuel Marquez Drinks His Own Urine

Juan Manuel Marquez is not sparing any expense whatsoever while training for his fight against Floyd Mayweather, Jr. And that apparently includes drinking his own urine. Seriously.

According to Marquez, it helps him regain lost vitamins that he urinated out during the day. UFC Light Heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida does the same thing, and it apparently works for him. Still, I'm not buying it. There's a reason your body gets rid of the stuff.

Wait ... Is That Boxer Drinking His Own Urine? [Deadspin]

Plain and Simple...this is truly disgusting.

Maybe he got crazy because he can't get Manny to box with him. So he settled for Money Mayweather. Now he help conserve water by drinking his own urine. He can have mine too if he wants.

9/9/09 | BluDevil | 618 respect

And I thought I wanted Money to destroy this guy before. Now I want him to beat the piss out of him!

9/9/09 | BluDevil | 618 respect

True and yet disgusting at the same time.

If he can dodge a wrench, he can dodge a punch, obviously!

Really? From what I actually had heard, is that he said his urine tastes more like scotch.

I'm so pissed off at you Juan! How could you do something like this? More importantly how could you let this leak out to the press? I guess we'll have to go to the head to figure out what the hell is wrong with you. Whether you know it or not, you're in a lot of trouble!

Excuse me, I'm on the verge of passing out!.......Yucko!.......

9/8/09 | sprode | 52 respect

Idiots, lol. It also contains all the wastes you urinated out during the day.

Just go eat your veggies, kid.

9/8/09 | dwyermaker | 39 respect

I think he's just doing it to scare the hell out of his opponents. It's got to make you think, if a guy is drinking his own urine on national television what is he doing in private? And you have to love the Mayweathers reuniting on that show after 9 years without talking by playing high-stakes craps on Jr's pool table. Those 24/7 boxing specials are just about the best thing on televsion...

I'm with you on this one, Pat. The only reasonable justification for that would be in a survival situation in order to counter dehydration, as long as you weren't so dehydrated that you couldn't pee, of course. Nasty nonetheless.
