            tyson rarely did the staredown right before the fight. maybe in press conferences, but rarely the pre-fight staredown. the mcneeley fight, and a couple of post prison fights he did, but those were exceptions.

            foreman, liston, now they liked to do that more.

              Larry Holmes had a stare down that looked like he just caught somebody with his wife and he was about to open a can of whoop-a$$.

              You guys also had great examples.

                Terry,
                I always felt Foreman-Lyle was one of the best, if not the best, neither backing down.

                  Ponce De Leon looks like a serial killer when he's starring an opponent down.

                    If I had a gun to my head and had to pick my one all time favorite fight, I think that would be it.
                    Great choice!

                      Tommy Hearns...I'd feel like Martin Lawrence if I had to stare down with him

                      Julio Cesar Chavez...he has some of the scariest eyes I swear
