    I dont think there's a fighter in history that could have stared down Evander Holyfield.

    .....before his first fight with Mike Tyson, Holyfield and Tyson were involved in a really heavy intense staredown.......
    ......If a fighter could reach inside anothers soul and rip their heart away, Evander did that to Mike Tyson, when after intense staring for several moments during the refs instructions, Tyson finally broke his sight of Holyfield and had to look away.....

    That staredown was a fight within a fight, and Holyfield broke Mike Tyson with his stare!
    Not opinion, but fact!!!!:deal:yep

    Exactly.

    People always mentioning Tyson in this regard don't know what they're talking about and must not have watched enough Tyson fights from the opening instructions. They probably only remember the rare occasions (McNeeley) when Tyson stared down opponents during the pre-fight staredown. If people watched all his fights, they'd see that Tyson did it a couple times when he got out of jail, but most of the time rarely got into it.

    On the other hand, Wilfred Benitez had an intense staredown.

    thread stealer has a point. tyson always looked like he had something on his mind other than the fight. he was shy earlier in his career and rarely made eye contact with anyone.
