Golovkin Jacobs face off. Never seen someone look this worried.

    Honestly, they both looked a little tense and nervous, which is normal. Jacobs looked a little bit more nervous, but nothing that will affect the outcome of the fight, IMO.

            Remember when people thought rigondeaux was afraid of donaire

            However, I've gotta go with GGG by tko
            Basically this. If Jacobs came out like I'll eat your children Tyson I'd still be picking GGG to KO him in 6 or less.

            I think people love to play amateur psychologist with this sorta sh^t doe so not surprised people have opinions like TS. I've never made much of this sorta sh^t cuz you don't know whats been going on during the day for any particular guy or their comfort level with a bigger fight media obligations & all sorts of other dynamics that won't be in play or will be less in play weeks later when the two parties actually fight.

              He looked focused for me .but if you are not scared before a fight its something wrong with you,they are both scared in some way.

                With Maxi's history, he may have cursed Golovkin... Is Gennady's chin strong enough to overcome the curse of a bad thread?....

                  Get real. A guy that's been diagnosed with cancer and beat it isn't going to be scared of a boxing match.

                    I don't see it. He looks normal.

                    Plus, fear is good. Fear will keep you smart. Even if Jacobs was scared, it's not a bad thing. You guys overplay this "fear" thing. Fear only plays a big role if it's the Tyson / Fedor Emlianko type of intimidation that psyches out the opponent.

                      Probably tons of both
