It's a different kind of intimidating but I'd say Roy Jones. He's not mean looking... you know, the kind of guy you wouldn't want to meet in an alley.
But he didn't intimidate with power... he intimidated you with his speed. I don't know how many fighters (well, probably every one up until Tarver) went into a fight with Roy saying they were going to out punch him, etc. but ended up being "dazzled" by his blinding speed. Most fighters started out the first round or so throwing punches but once they started getting countered, they ended up being too scared to throw punches. This led to many, many somewhat boring Roy Jones' victories.
Now me personally, I would not want to have been in the ring with Mike Tyson at any point in his career. He's got a intimidating build, speed, power, he bites and he's got a general disdain for all human life.Comment
