Alright guys, I dont want to seem weird, but surely I cant be the only one that notices this. Anybody notice things in a fighter before the first bell, that "doesn't seem right"? With that in mind, does that weird observation tend to make you think that the fight results will be take a wild turn?
As fight fans, we can make ALL of the predictions in the world, but seeing the fighters all the way up to the first bell can possibly make someone change their prediction. It doesn't always have to be the physical appearance, but it can also be the "otherwise overlooked" things that can happen before the first bell rings. For example, I've read posts from guys noting how long Froch's hair was during the Bute fight, which gave folks an idea that he would probably come up short. I guess we can put that theory to rest after the results though. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Seriously though, I noticed his hair as well. Most would make a point that watching Floyd walk out first for the Cotto fight (though Miguel was the champion and thats traditional), gave them a last-minute thought that something would go wrong. Your observation can range anywhere from the entrances, appearance, backstage stuff, etc. Thoughts? |

Good topic, C' .
When I saw Margarito coming to the ring against Mosley (I had turned down the volume so I didn't hear Merchant saying all that illegal wraps stuff ) , I was almost 100% sure judging from his face he would lose that one. His eyes were telling the story. Also, Prince Naz vs. Barrera. Although he was flamboyant as always, he didn't do his signature flip across the ropes and we all know the result.
