They usually just gargle to wet their throats, but they do take a little sip of water from time to time to avoid dehydration.

From what I've observed, they drink every couple of rounds or so...I've seen a lot of fighters spit the water out after swishing for a few seconds...I think it all depends on how the fighter is feeling
