    Manny Steward said, that along with Liston, Vitali was the most intimidating heavy he had ever seen.

    I think the fitness level(CUT) and size of the Klitschko can be a mean look in the other corner. Ike Ibeabuchi because he was crazy ( Tyson as well) Foreman because he will be swinging early. Max Baer and Scmeling and Dempsey had the razor cut, no socks,shaved sides Killer look. Liston had a stone Killer face and Joe Louis was impassive but a Killer in every sense and Big Cat had the body and look.

    If I did not know him Valuev is a mean look

    Even a prime Big George said he was glad Norton didnt look down or he would have seen his knees shaking.
    Norton was very intimidating looking, just physique wise.

    At SM Jeff Lacy was intimidating.
    Former JM champ Oscar Albarado
    Juan Urango is the biggest looking JW ive ever seen.

    There is certainly no way Vitali is more intimidating than his brother. Wlad has more power, much better skills, much better technique, much better jab, much better defense, and wlad has never quit under adversity. I think fighters would be a lot more afraid fighting Wladimir.

    vitali klitschko is way more scarier than wladimir, imo vitali is a little bit crazy and sadistic, he gets very angry sometimes. and he is very intimidating, think about that, a 6,6 muscle guy who loves to beat the **** out of his opponents, and who is from the sowiet union, if thats not scary, then what?

    Ken Norton..are you sure? Remember the staredown in the ring with George Foreman in Caracas? It was only a one-way staredown...with Norton looking down at the canvas.

    Sonny Liston, George Foreman, Mike Tyson. Not in any particular order but these three guys have the most menacing looks. Joe Frazier brings a different kind of fear to the ring, typically smiling at you as if you're a meal ready to be eaten. Ron Lyle and Earnie Shavers had pretty intimidating stares too.

    I imagine John L. Sullivan was no basket of flowers during ring introductions.

    He also quits on his stool when faced under adversity. Real Intimidating fighters are the ones you know will never give up, and would rather die than give up their title.

    Please inform us again how intimidating Liston was according to your well-thought criteria.
