      If no financial interest, I am cool cucumber.
      I think I get even more nervous if I've talked a lot of **** about the fight in the weeks before. Since I have shown tremendous respect for both of this Saturday's fighters and have no money at stake, I probably won't get past anxious.

        Last time I was nervous watchin a fight was when Roy fought Glen and was losin on the cards. Nervousness went to shock when he not only lost, but got KTFO worse than when Tarver dropped him.

          I am a fan of neither Taylor or Pavlik, but I jumped out of my seat when I saw Taylor start backing up before the KO, and starting yelling and punching the couch in anger.

          Not a cool cat during fights for sure.

                When I was in a big group of friends for Mayweather vs. De La Hoya, I told everyone how badass the Rocky Juarez fight was going to be...

                Man, was I embarrassed.

                    Yeah no kidding. I was cheering too because Marquez was winning the round pretty easy.

                    I was like "YEAH YEAH YEAH NO NO NO NO ****!!!"

                      Yes.

                      I get nervous before all the big fights.
                      If I have money on the fight.
                      If I'm a big fan of one of the fighters.

                      The most nervous I can recall probably was prior to Hopkins/Tarver, because everyone was saying Tarver would **** him up and I didn't know how bhop would respond to losing twice to taylor and going up two weight classes

                      Also got really nervous before mayweather/odh for some strange reason even though I thought I didn't really give a **** about the fight
