Most Frightening/Intimidating Boxer of ALL TIME: ALL must BOW

[Beanflicker]

Iran brought a machete to the press conference before the James Toney fight. Guess it didn't really work because James gave him a monumental ass whipping.

The only thing frightening about Iran Barkley was his horrendous face...

I'm fully convinced that one of the KDs on Van Horn was him slipping in a puddle It was one of the most charged and amped up I've seen a guy. Scowling menace The Blade!

[Slick45]

Nobody beats Hearns in a staredown contest.

[Vendettos]

Ahh, Big George, the hypothetical monster. The guy that beats them all.... Except the guys he didn't. But surely all others. Surely only the guys that beat him could beat him. Surely.

This is one of those threads that someone starts and someone else makes them look silly and it becomes their thread.

This is now Ron Swansons thread.

I would put Vitali Klitschko up there and a prime James Toney with the scowl and skill set he possessed.

[Mr140]

Honestly i find Ali and Holyfeild to more intimidating then guys like Foreman or Tyson reason being is because they were crazy and feared nothing. Those types that don't really break mentally and don't shut done when things are getting rough are people that you worry about.

[Spicoli]

Lt Heavy Michael Moorer. The guy came off borderline certifiable! Johnny Tapia, Jeff Fenech and Jose Luis Lopez.

@Vendettos Not only have you demonstrated your myopic view on that provincial interpretation, but you have proven to all the most world-reknowned Boxing Experts like Gil Clancy, Angelo Dundee, Emanuel Steward, Kevin Rooney, Al Certo, Lou Duva, Eddie Futch, and a whole host of other All Time Great boxers like Archie Moore for example, that you don't know JACK SHIT about who almost ALL of those people say hands-down was the MOST INTIMIDATING FIGHTER OF ALL TIME---

BIG.....................GEORGE.................... ..FOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRREMANNNNNNNNNNN!

But hey, you can atleast take that TV Dinner out of your mouth for a sec and keep blowing your father

Michael Moorer falls 'just short' of the Top 10.

Ezzard Charles, while quite possibly the best Light-Heavyweight of All-Time,
was 'not' an intimidator. He just 'boxed' your ears off.
