    It's part of why boxing is so exciting. Anything can happen.

      No, because there is nobody i consider "my fighter".

      I am a fan of the sport called boxing, if one or many of my favorite fighters did not exist, i would still love the sport and watch every big fight.

      To you nuthuggers it might not make sense, but the reason i love the sport is simply because it's a great sport, not because i am a huge fan of a guy that happens to compete in said sport.

        LMAO, hahaahahahahhh

        I don't watch Cotto's fights, i pray when he fights and stay in the locker room. LOOL

        I dont' get nervous when Mayorga or Cotto fight. With the first one i know he has big chances of gettin KTFO and with the other i know he gonna break some bones. I only get nervous when Cotto is in big trouble. Like in the Ricardo Torres fight.

                I think a week is too early. I get nervous a couple of days before the bout and especially in the moments leading up to the fight itself.

                  It's only natural, but you have to be careful come fight night not to get too excited.

                  I got scared when I was watching the Pacman-Hatton bout on PPV last May, I was so excited that my whole arms, hands and face got numb during the rounds...I thought I'd get a heart attack...LOL!

                  Good Luck larry, in my mind I know that PBF got all the advantage to win, In fact I kinda feel that PBF will win, I'm just not sure of it 'coz JMM is a true warrior and adjusts well during a fight. Just enjoy the fight, it's what you've been anticipating... the return of your #1 fighter.

                    I get so nervous, I can't stand watching the fight live!

                    When I watched Hatton vs. Mayweather I was nervous as ****, cuz I knew Ricky would get beat. But I felt sick watching it for some reason.
