    I'd probably go with Tyson because he was an absolute machine in his prime days and scared the **** out of everyone.

        ask sonny liston this question lol
        but id say it was tyson.
        hes record for knocking people out at such a young age was intimidating itself but when ppl got in the ring and was getting whacked the hardest they got whacked in there life nd couldnt hit him back i wud say u was scared.

          I would say Tyson because the guys he fought could be intimidated. Where guys that Liston fought like Cleveland Williams were tougher back then and couldn't be intimidated.

            Tyson has psyched some VERY good boxers out before a fight. I think i would pick him. The examples are probably:

            Foreman vs Norton

            Liston vs Patterson

            Tyson vs Spinks(Or Seldon, but he was not good)


            Most impressive one was Tyson vs Spinks.

              Watch Nigel Benn's first 22 fights then look at him staring Eubank down in 1990.. I'd of been ****ting myself if I was in Eubank's boots more so than in any other situation in boxing I can think of ever.

                  I think Patterson was scared ****less actually. I just think back then guys had a tougher mentality.
