Like when the boxer is on his stool the cornerman or trainer will be pulling the waistband of his shorts away from his body. Why is this?

It helps the boxer to breath easier. He's actually pulling on the protector worn under the trunks. This takes pressure off the abdominal muscles.

Two reasons, one there's no hitting below the belt, the higher the trunks, the higher the belt line, the less of a visual target for a body puncher. Also sometimes the cup slips, and if there is anything worse than a low blow, it's a low blow with the jock out of place.

some desire somebody shorter than themselves, of course they do no longer desire thus far a female who feels like an avatar status beside them. i think of a guy ought to affiliate being the taller interior the couple as manly, and probable experience much less masculine in the event that they're the shorter one interior the couple. it rather is the comparable with a lot of girls who might desire a taller guy because of the fact they experience secure and extra look after than relationship somebody their very own top or shorter than they're. each to their very own :)

It allows the diaphragm to push the abdomen out of the way to get deeper breaths.

It allows the stomach muscles to relax. Those Everlast shorts are grossly too tight.

To help him breath better. If he is sucking wind, doing that will help him get more air.

during the fight the cup can ride up and be very uncomfortable.and if the ref see;s it he will tell you to pull them down anyway.
