Hearns-Benitez Leonard-Benitez I think these are good ones, not because they're intimidating, but because of how smug and confident Benitez looks staring two of the greatest fighters of all time straight in the eye. 4 realz dog.... that foo Benitez had that straight g stare. Fearless Legend.

Hearns-Benitez Leonard-Benitez I think these are good ones, not because they're intimidating, but because of how smug and confident Benitez looks staring two of the greatest fighters of all time straight in the eye. Ali-Shavers was pretty funny, Ali rubbed Shavers' head for good luck. I also liked Ali-Frazier I because of the evil grin Frazier had on his face.

Vitali has some great stare downs...

14y ago

serio dog, I was trippin on that too when I heard Foreman was scared. Frazier had a crazy ass mean mug pre-fight.

the first Frazier/Foreman was pretty intense. Damn straight and what was shocking was foreman was terrified of frazier lol.

Nigel Benn dealt some major death stares.

Check my sig..... got to go with this one, what an epic staredown and great fight.

14y ago

Heres another good one http://youtu.be/52psY3bbykY haha yea theres no way anybody can stare him down dressing like that

14y ago

Prime Mike Tyson vs. Everybody. Hopkins is also a master of the staredown. Tyson rarely got into the prefight staredown. Maybe during press conferences but during the ref instructions, him bothering with the staredown (Ribalta, McNeeley) was the exception, not the norm. Foreman-Lyle Hearns-Benitez Trinidad-Vargas Leonard-Benitez: not during the refs instructions, but when they entered the ring, before the intros.
