i think its when the oesophagus dont take the food to the stomach properly. Thus causing pain in your chest region-ish

I've had esophageal spasms due to acid reflux disease
It’s where your airway seizes up and you can’t move any air. Mine typically lasted between 10 and 30 seconds. It just scares the fuck out of you, because you don’t know how long it will last and when the next one may come on. If Mike treats his acid reflux he will be fine. I haven’t had one of those things for about 8 years now.
I was wrong - it was laryngospasms not esophageal spasms I had
But esophageal spasms don’t sound like much fun. Mike should still be fine so long as he properly treats his acid reflux.
so we could call this a swasm?

btw does anyone else think 185 was swicks optimal weight? still good speed but what seemed like better punching power

i think so
He looks like a crackhead at ww..he was out muscled by okami and decided to drop…muscle isn’t the only thing that wins fights..I don’t have proof but I’d bet most of andersons opponents were physically stronger..work on other areas…if that doesn’t work..then drop…but I’m not a fighter, its just an opinion

well..
If he goes back to 185 he could always try adding muscle and doing more strength trainning, but im not him so I have no clue how his body works..
For what profit is it to man if he gains the world , and loses his own soul?
