    For me it's gotta be the Klitschko's, especially Wlad. He gets this mean icy look on his face. It's funny, in his first fight with Brewster, they had an intense staredown, but in the rematch Brewster was so intimidated he didnt even look at Wlad in the staredown.

    After the Klits I would put in Valuev and James Toney I guess.

    Vitaly.

    That is just someone noone wants to stare at knowing there will be a fight.

    At least with Wlad one can pray for the freak thing to happen. With Vitaly you pretty much know that you are going to get a throrough beating an dwill not see the final bell - other than on your back counting the stars.

    If - in history - then Tyson. He didn't actually stare alot, but damn people broke water just from being in his presence.

    Hearns always immediatly comes to mind. Those big eyes of his!:scaredas:

    Tyson always looked intimidating as hell at the beginning of the bout and his opponents looked petrified. :lol:

    Tyson looked like a great white shark circling around its prey and eyeballing it.
    Swaying back and forth, popping his neck and looking like a pissed off pitbull.

    Margarito as well. That dude looks mean. In the prefight weigh in between Margarito and Cintron in the rematch Cintron looked like a **** victim facing their ****** for the first time.

    I agree with this as well. Cotto has an intimidating staredown.
