Its that moment when you find yourself and realise your a somebody. Boxing has done that for thousands. Avery good case history, this fighter I always thought had ice running through his veins, this timein the dressing room he got a headache and said he had bad nerves I sorted the problem by massage, but he was shitting himself. He went out that night and boxed like a dream,the winner and new world champion. I said to him hows your headache, what headache scrap
yes,, trying to impress everyone and to not let everyone down.. its very taxing mentally.. like Scrap say it all passes with time.; just remember that your people are gonna love you win or lose, just go out there and have fun and relax.. good thing are gonna happen. ! O0

Re: i have a problem before i get into the ring
As the song goes, everyone is different. But the common thread here is that EVERYONE gets nervous in one way or another. One of the most notable people to suffer from boxer's performance anxiety was Tyson. He would think himself dizzy about all of the bad things that could happen to him when he stepped in the ring.
"But once I step into the ring, I'm a god, no one can beat me."
Personally, I used to get into serious cold sweats even before a sparring session. I wouldn't even be thinking about anything, it'd just be the anticipation that would get me. But once I get into the flow of things, like almost everyone else, I'm completely fine.
The only thing I can tell you is that if you manage to step into the ring even after having those feelings, then you've already done more than most people could do. Most people only think about doing things, you're actually doing what you want and love. So give yourself a pat on the back for that! I'm sure with more fights, you'll be acclimated and wondered why you ever got those feelings in the first place.
