Because in his mind he couldnt afford to loose to become champ to him that was the crux of his life and he couldnt live with it. It bacame an obsession. He had a winning record but couldnt handle the Big occasion. He was the only kid Ive worked with that never won a title and it wasnt for the lack of trying
Hey Scrap, If you get another like him, send them to someone high up in the new age practice of TFT or Thought field therapy and they can be taught a technique that can overcome any phobia in miniutes any time it arises, they do the formula themselves /tapping certain pressure points while thinking and feeling the fear or the negitive and it snips up all of the film that plays over and over in your mind and it disperses into your whole brain field so that emotion comming from you playing over the same senario is removed. Eventually (quickly actually)that part of your brain that is addicted to that negative thought pattern just gives it up once you have removed the emotion from it a few times.
