Guys who rarely fails to get inside their opponents' head.. List them and give examples..
Chris Eubank was one of the best I've seen at doing that.
Ali, obviously.
Tyson didn't even need to speak. He only had to look at most of his opponents for them to be reduced to a quivering wreck.
Mayweather
Mayorga
Hopkins
I'd even say Froch a bit
Same for Chavez Sr and Duran partly, though Duran was a great trashtalker as wellQuote:

Provodnikov has that look on his face like he is going to eat you. His eyes have a wild animal hunting look when he's in the ring.
James Toney.
Bernard Hopkins.
George Foreman in the early 1970s.
James toney getting on the nerves of Eubank was classic. Him talking shit while Mickey Rouke stood right beside him like two Gss.. The best boxer/actor duo ever. Eubank was on the verge of tears crying about ohhh why is he talking about my mother lol .. so soft and sensitive..
Benn was just his stone cold self and didnt seem bothered..
Toney would have kicked Eubank's ass for sure..

B-Hop is the master in this generation.
Ali with Foreman and Liston are classic examples. Remember Jim Watt saying in a pre-fight press conference of an opponent he was facing who had weight issues that he purposely was eating and drinking in front of him to tell him he had no issues making the weight.
