      Here is a list of fighters who have at one point said they were nervous before fighting.

      Ali
      Foreman
      Tyson
      Eubank
      Holyfield
      Marciano

      That's all ive heard, but I think everyone gets a little nervous and anxious.

          There are probably a couple, like the likes of Nigel Benn who may be less nervous and more "ready to go" anxious, but yeah i'd say they still get the jelly legs from time to time.

            best thing is to acknowledge that the fear is there and realize that the other guy is just as scared. then you use it to your advantage. even Tyson admits he would get scared as hell

              when i get nervous.. i close my eyes take a deep breath and imagine the energy flowing through my body over and over. With each breath im bringing energy in and with each exhale im letting the energy flow throughout my body. After i feel no nervousness.. just energized and ready. i suggest u people try it lol.
