    Jason Litzau looked like he was about to **** his pants when he got traped in the corner with Adrien Broner at the end of the 1st round.

    Bruce Seldon against Mike Tyson was the most obviously intimidated I've ever seen anyone before a punch was even thrown.

    I genuinely said that ODLH looked scared/nervous on his ring walk for Pac. Im not saying he was scared of Pac but maybe he just realized how weight drained he was.

    Haye's falling down for no reasons against Wlad was no picknick either.

    Bruno in the second (?) Tyson fight. He blessed himself about 36 times on the way to the ring.

    Grant was clearly very nervous before the Lewis fight.

    I think it was before he fought Tyson, that Golota had to be practically dragged to the ring.

    seldon came to the ring trying to smile like he wasnt at all worried..but it was the most fake nervous smile ive ever seen...he was terrified...amd this was a guy who was a monster physically, had some good tools...had a shot , and was in prison for 7 years...and he was terrified...i dont get it

    Those guys ain't scared....just like what those ESPN guys said. They might have been scared but they took the chance and went in there. That's what the job call for. Mayweather to PAC is what you call scared. When you're a prize fighter fighting for money and you don't want to face a certain someone, even for the most money that's scared. That's a coward and it's shameful.

    Dirrell when he fought Froch, he looked like he was crapping himself in the dressing room.
