    Floyd Patterson looked like he was going to an execution before a fight.

    Max Baer walkin' into the ring against Joe Louis.

    Haye on his ring walk and face off with Wlad. Voice breaking when he spoke.

    Naseem Hamed always looked tense and petrified on his way to the ring aswell ;)

    Oscar De La Hoya always looks like he's on the way to the gallows when doing all his ring walks, no matter who he is facing. Usually wins anyway.

    Tyson looked scared coming in to face old shot Lewis

    Imagine the terror on his face if he'd been forced to fight Lewis when they were in their primes :scaredas::scaredas::scaredas:

    :yep Doing the sign of the cross every 30 seconds was a giveaway. To think i got suckered in by the hype that Bruno might do something.

    Tyson/Spinks is the most vivid, especially with that entrance music.

    Golota was in a right state against Lewis too.

    He did for the pacquiao fight. He looked awful.

    As did Hatton..he clearly **** himself.

    As did Cotto. It looked like he knew he couldn't win

    I think you should watch it again!

    LL when he fought Tyson... it took him a couple of rounds to relax, and then by the 4th he was gaining full confidence.

    But before it started and for the first couple of rounds he shat it! :deal

    It's not a negative but Floyd always looks nervous like a wide eyed scared cat ready to strike out. Always noticed this..... The nervous energy helps his incredible flexes and D.

    When Floyd gets that scared cat look you know he's in the fight and 100% on point with his reflexes.
