    We will never see it in action, but Sam Langford seems to have intimidated many much larger opponents into submision.

    Barbados Joe Walcott likewise.

    I get that too man, that coldness he gives off especially with his dead-pan face, for some reason reminds me of that speech in Jaws talking about the sharks eyes being lifeless and like a dolls...creepy ****
