    I do. I get sweaty palms and my heart rate climbs. My muscles get all tensed up and I have to tell myself to calm down and breathe slowly and deeply and then I begin to relax.

    It's weird and it happens every time I'm watching fighters that I support. I guess it's just how you feel when you're watching something you genuinely care about. You get an adrenaline rush as if it was you that was about to throw down in front of everyone. I kind of like the feeling to be honest.

      I think anybody here who doesn't get nervous doesn't belong here

        As a big fan of both Hatton and Pac I prayed to the boxing god (Calzaghe) Hatton didn't get ktfo or humiliated/killed.... But that's EXACTLY what happened. I feared for his life and was right to do so.

          Man it's weird to me because when I watch fights I start shaking and I stutter my words but when I'm fighting I'm as calm as Ghandi. It's weird man

            When I fighter I really like is fighting, man the feeling is crazy. He might be winning, but you always know "this is boxing, ANYTHING can happen."

            Other than that if it's just a good fight, I only get nervous for a fighter when they get iced hoping they recover well.

              For what its worth I went to see rigo and donaire at radio city and around the fourth round I had a panic/anxiety attack and watched the rest of it with the security guard wo was checking tickets in my aisle (spelling). Weird fight to get nervous over not much action and rigs was dominating but I had too much riding on it.

                Yeh I always get nervous like the b!tch butterflies when the main event starts. Nervous and excited at the same time.

                  Yeah I had the same feeling when Hatton got iced, I thought something seriously bad happened when they started to turn him.
                  Same thing when Marquez iced Pac as beautiful as both KO's were I'm glad both are ok.

                    I only get nervous and agitated during Pacquiao's fights. And when he wins via KO/TKO I have the pleasure of getting arousal too.
