Yes it can, it makes you tired and relaxed. You dont want to be like that before a fight you want to be pumped up of energy so you can have a good fight.

Truth be told it's pretty much and old wives tale. Sex does not weaken you to the point that you will collapse in the ring. I can understand if you had sex with 2 gymnasts and 1 bodybuilder then ok you might have extended a bit too much energy than you would have wanted to, but like I said, it's a myth.

Yes it can.
You want to be filled with testosterone and energy.
Having sex uses up majority of your testosterone and will effect you in the ring. Mentally and Physically. Mentally your mind will be elsewhere and physically your body will be very relaxed, your punches wont be crisp and you will tire easily.
It is best to avoid any type of sexual contact (even masturbation) for about a month before a fight. if you cant control your urges for that long try 3 weeks before a fight.
the longer before the fight, the better. after the fight you can do what you want.

the problem is not necessarily having sex before the bout, but actually putting in the effort to get some. which can be as tiring as boxing itself.

That is the worst thing to do before a fight or basketball or any sport. I have always been taught that, Like everyone says, it alot of testosterone. So don't do it.

having boxed before, its the boxers choice if nothing else! most boxers stay away from their partners because they are getting in the zone before a fight, and or to grumpy, and aggressive in training. i have had some of the best s"x before a fight..... its just a myth really..

Depends, if the guy is just laying back letting the girl bounce around, then no. But if he is working it then yes, it could definitely effect his stamina, his knees, and possibly his arms

for guys yes, sex uses alot of the testoserone in your body, and make you less agressive and not as able to throw harder punches.
but is is recomended for women befor a mach for the exact opposite reason.

If you can't control yourself for such a trivial matter before a fight, then no, I don't think you should be fighting at all.
