When have you sensed tension/nerves in a fighter
When have you sensed tension/nerves in a fighter?
Mayweather against Hatton, even on his ring walk he looked full of trepidation, he was also tight as anything when the bell rang, infact i think Roger or Ellerbe kept telling him to relax.
Barrett against Haye, dude started coming apart days before the fight complaining about the way he had been treated, that and the fact he ran to the ring and fell over the top rope was a sure sign, to me at least, that he had let all the nervous energy consume him.
Khan against Barrera, this was not Amir's come back fight but it prolly was his first biggest test since that KO, i sensed a lot of jittery, nervous energy from the way he fought in the early rounds, it was as though he was using his speed at a high intensity because he was trying control that nervous energy.
