Most dramatic stare-downs of all-time?

good post, Liston was the Tyson of the early 60s no one could stare down him.

 

I agree the best staredown ever.

 

Wow you didnt know that, when did you start watching boxing
Everyone knew that line

 

Mike Tyson looking away, because Evander Holyfield had his number. Mike Tyson tried to stare at Evander Holyfield for afew seconds but looked away.

But Mike Tyson had a different kind of look, not a bad ass look, but a cold hearted stare down in this fight.

Valuev seems like a too nice a guy to scare people, yea he's huge but he seems passive, it looks as though he let up in the Barrett fight because he was afraid to hurt him, Wlad on the other hand looks as though he really is trying to inflict a lot of damage on his opponent, that's why he kept going for Brewesters bad eye in that last fight...

 

True, like I said if he worked on it a little bit I think his stare down would scare anyone.

 

Foreman-Lyle.

 

Foreman - Frazier comes to mine.

How important is the staredown?

 

Less so than the knockdown.

 

Well you can get a psychological advantage for about one round.

 

Quinton Jackson takes it. holy ****.

 

Wilfred Benitez used to have serious staredowns. He had serious staredowns with Duran, Hearns and Leonard.

 

Rocky and Drago. while Rocky is holding Apollos dead head in his arm, and curling his lip. That **** sent chills down my back.

 

Mike was intimidated there, for the first time ever I think, which was a reverse of what happened in the previous fight.
