    I have fully wondered wether any body has called the cops a few times. Depends on who's fighting I guess.

    I am getting more chill these days though. Haha

    Watching a good fight often results in an unignorable adrenaline rush for me. In the past, I've jump roped between rounds. A more common practice for me though is to shadow box.

    I do this too; Except I happen to be very lucky that we have all the necessary equipment to do full contact sparring directly after a big fight when hanging out with my buds.

    When I watch boxing alone; afterwards I will do some bag work or pushups and shadowboxing afterwards.

    I think a lot of that with me comes from seeing them fighting and wanting to be in there myself and doing it. My muscles get real twitchy from watching that ****

    For the big fights I'll do a lot of pacing between rounds. Also running to the kitchen to grab another beer is pretty typical **** too. Durring the actual rounds thought I'll be sitting down almost always. Durring a good fight I'll be on the edge of my seat and often half bobing or rocking with the action. I would be stupid if it wasn't for the fact that the two dudes I normally watch the fights with (my bro and my cousin) are basically doing the same thing. My cousin whose a former amateur boxer and way more gheto then me will start cusin' out the TV screen if he's really into it. Its freakin hilarious:thumbsup

    Ya, I get that too. I used to get it more thought. It's fuukin' intense! remember for basically the entire day of Cotto Margo I, I was pretty much shaking from the adrenaline. What made it terrible was that I was studying for a test that day and I basically had to sit in one stop and try to focus on my books for pretty much 10 hours straight before that fight started. I could barely read the page infront of me I was soo ampted up. Thats definitely the most jaked I've ever been for a fight.

    Yes! :lol: I do pacing, a little shadow boxing, very much into it. And during the ring walks, I think that's the most intense part for me. That's really when the butterflies kick in, my knees start shaking. That's when it's like, all right, it's finally here. And during the fight itself I'm yelling, "oohing" and "awwing" that's why I don't mind Gus Johnson. A lot complain that he's yelling, but hell, I'm yelling so when I'm yelling, and he's yelling it feels like were both in the same room. So, I don't mind it at all. :lol:

    I get very nervous before the fight, and the excitement and anticipation is unbelievable. Only soccer and boxing get me nervous, hyped up, cussing and yelling at the tv.

    Love it!
