Top 10 most intimidating fighters of all times

Vitali Klitschko. shame you only have 2 boxers to pick from.

P4P top 5 scariest as they'd all be Heavys otherwise Sonny Liston Mike Tyson George Foreman Roberto Duran Nigel Benn

I'll keep it short and simple. 1. Paulie Malignaggi 2. Ivan Calderon 3. Carlos Molina

I used to love how Tyson looked so relaxed as he would pace back and forth before a fight, and his opponent just KNEW they were about to get murdered.

1 nikolai valuev 2. pipino cuevas 3. marcos maidana 4. mike tyson 5. edison miranda 6. alfredo angulo 7. kimbo slice 8. antonio margarito 9. george forman 10. ricardo mayorga

I think we've covered most of the bases gents......but a few leftfield suggestions. Jeff Fenech in his pomp scared lots of the smaller guys rigid. Azumah Nelson - see above. Ike Ikeabuachi was briefly very scary indeed, before he was locked-up for being very scary.

Foreman lower than Liston? Foreman before Ali to me was the baddest man on the planet. Maybe his renewed teddy bear look hurt has hurt his bad-guy image! Why? Foreman had a bad boy image early in his career. Liston broke policemens legs for fun. Trust me, George at his worst can't match Listen.

Bernard Hopkins Cant take hopkins serious with that execution mask on.

all different opinions m8 , it would be a sad world if we all viewed it the same way lol. it's still a cracking list green coming your way! Cheers for the green k mate. Has been returned.

I did think of Langford and Benn, but they seem to be rolling around on a lot of those lists. So just made one with my own picks. But they could certainly be there. all different opinions m8 , it would be a sad world if we all viewed it the same way lol. it's still a cracking list green coming your way!

Good list, and I'd agree with most of it especially the top 3. I'd consider putting Valero in the list as well, the phycotic look on his face when he went to work and devastating power must have scared the 5hit out of his opponents. I also think Pac, Floyd, and prime RJJ were pretty intimidating in a slightly different way.

i have nothing against pryor , the guy is actually one of my favourite fighters just i can think of a few more who were more menacing i.e monzon benn langford and even a few more I did think of Langford and Benn, but they seem to be rolling around on a lot of those lists.

I thought about Joe Frazier, but he was too nice outside of the ring. What do you have against Aaron Pryor being there? That stare of his before the first bell was pretty intense. People were scared of him. i have nothing against pryor , the guy is actually one of my favourite fighters just i can think of a few more who were more menacing i.e monzon benn langford and even a few more

where the hell is joe frazier and aaron pryor as great of a fighter he wasn't really that intimidating , carlos monzon get's slot number 10 for me.

I suppose there's various forms of intimidation. Holyfield was intimidating in that his belief in his religion (helping him) was so strong that it did give him extra strength. But for me this thread is about bad/scary guys. Liston & Tyson joint top for me. Young versions of Duran & Foreman next. .....Then in no particular order...... Nigel Benn, especially pre Watson (even us in the crowd fed off his demeanour) Marvin Hagler Stanley Ketchel Jack Dempsey Khaosai Galaxy Tommy Hearns Foreman lower than Liston? Foreman before Ali to me was the baddest man on the planet. Maybe his renewed teddy bear look hurt has hurt his bad-guy image! Vitali Klitschko. Why?

I would replace Holmes with Jack Johnson.
