The young George Foreman. I saw him at the Lewis Ruddock fight in London and the guys head looked like the size of a pumkin. He just hasthis look that he'd be impossible to hurt. Tyson did pretty well.
Even though he's a little guy, I'd be intimidated by Aaron Pryor. Just to see him looking crazy getting all riled up in the corner across from you about to come out like a tazmanian devil...and that shit that he pulled with Arguello...the whole point and stare deal. It would suck to know that you were going to have to take a lot of punishment before dispatching the fucker too.
yeah, i'd agree, even now aaron pryor looks like a crazy fucker, i saw him at ringside at a recent fight and he looked like he'd skullfuck a guy for no reason. i'd say the most intimidating fighter is james butler, because even if you win the fight he might just lose it and fuck your shit up afterwards when u can't see it coming

There's only one...Mike Tyson in his prime struck fear into the hearts of everyone he faced. Opponents were so scared they were already beaten men before they got into the ring!
When Mike used to make his ring entrance with Public Enemy's "Welcome to the Terrordome" blaring in the background...man that was the shit!! How could you not be scared?
Foreman when he knocked out Joe frazier with an uppercut. Joe went up 1 or 2 inches from the ground bro. It was brutal!!!
And of course Pacman's intimidation of ledwaba. Damn! Ledwaba got scared after tasting that left. Ask barrera too.
The most intimidating fighter, pound for pound, is Bernard Hopkins..
I agree 100%, no emotion in that stern face of his. He just keeps coming and coming destroying your hope and morale.
Well he scares me anyway out of the present day fighters :D
When discussing intimidating fighters, a lot of people bring up Tyson, Liston, Foreman, etc. and for good reason. They won fights before they even started. But people often leave out Terry McGovern, the 118-126 pound fighter, who pretty much destroyed everyone that stepped into the ring with him at the turn of the century.
The guy was small; however, his punch and mean streak were anything but.
Manny Pacquiao :D Smiles nonstop, looks like everyones best friend, go in the ring with him, hes a tornado that will eat you alive :eek: I think knowing that your opponent is friendly and cool to be with before a fight though knowing he's going to fight you like you mugged him is worse than an intimidating looking fighter that you know can break down if you get him good.
