Any fighters with "performance anxiety"?

[real2124]

Some fighters may have been absolute beasts in the gym, in sparring.... But once they step into the octagon it's another story. Nerves get to em and they just don't fight at their potential.

Any note worthy examples ?

 

[Arm Barbarian]

Cowboy Cerrone in the biggest fights.

 

[Son of Werdum]

Jones and Silva, although in different ways.

They needed those pills though man.

 

[Rondas Pillow]

Every opponent of Connor

Silva got busted after shattering his leg. Can’t really blame him. I was nervous kicking a heavy bag the next time at the gym lol- he had to be freaked out.

 

[Chomsky Honk]

Forrest tested positive for Xanax

 

[John 8 44 -8 47]

Kat Zingano. Bamboozled herself in the match that counted most.
