There’s plenty of debate on whether abstaining from sex improves athletic performance, and IG model Holly Sonders is looking to prove that’s the way to go. Oscar De La Hoya’s girlfriend, Holly Sonders, is laying down the law prior to his fight against Vitor Belfort on September 11th.

According to Holly, there will be no sexual activity leading up to his fight.

“Oscar De La Hoya’s GF, Holly Sonders, says she ain’t gettin’ any … at least not until her man’s scrap with MMA legend Vitor Belfort on September 11.

TMZ Sports ran into Sonders — who’s been dating 48-year-old Oscar for a few months — in Beverly Hills on Friday … and we hit her with the most critical question?

Sex or nah before the fight?

“We are very disciplined, I will say that,” Sonders tells us … “More than anybody probably ever thought we could be.”

And, boot knockin’ ain’t the only vice the couples cut out … Holly says they’re temporarily sworn off booze, too!

“I decided weeks and weeks ago I wouldn’t be drinking, I wouldn’t be partying, I’m right there with him.””

Watch Holly explain below:

The thinking behind the abstinence is sex before a fight lowers testosterone, which can only hinder performance.

We’ll have to wait and see how sex less Oscar fares.
