    Default Most intimidating pre-fight staredown

    There are some guys who psych their opponents out before the bell rings. Those few moments when the ref is giving his instructions are so crucial. Perhaps thats why Oscar looks at the ceiling rather than at his opponent. But the all time winner of this award is, hands down - LARRy HOLMES.

    Although at the K-1 championships, Don Frye and Ken Shamrock had one of the best nose to nose staredowns ever.

    Sounds silly but Oscars can be very Off-Putting

    He obviously doesnt fear you, so you must be thinking "whats up with this guy, whats going through his mind"

    Scariest has to be Tyson, the bloke wouldnt even try to be scary he just was...

    Tyson was good. He didnt even look like he was breathing.

    Hagler-Hearns. You can tell they were just waiting for the bell to start.

    I agree that the Hagler/Hearns stare down was the most intense i ever saw.

    Hagler-Hearns, good call.

    Tarver's "You got any excuses tonight, Roy?" - classic.

    I remember the story Brian London gave, about being offered a £100 by his promoter (back in 62/63), to confront then World Heavyweight Champion Sonny Liston, who was on a world tour.

    London stepped up to Liston in a press conference, and thumped his hands down at the table Liston was sitting at. Liston stood up and stared at London... Brian said he "shit himself" and that it was "almost, not worth the money!"

    hahaha im sure most people would s*** themselves, the Tyson v Mcneeley fight must have been intimidating for Mcneeley although he just stood there and laughed, biig mistake.

    i agree-tysons staredown in the ring with mcneeley was scary.

    Just moved his eyes from side to side as he followed mcneeleys eyes.

    Not as scary as wat apened in the ring tho
