Now that Iron Mike is long since gone, who is it?

Is it this guy?

Sergei Kovalev - Devastating power allied to decent boxing skills makes him one scary proposition right now.

Honourable mention to Gennady Golovkin who looks like he can knock down houses every time he hits you.

I've got to say the same...GGG and then Kovalev. Kovalev has been down a couple times otherwise it would be a lot tighter race.

I'd go for Kovalev ............. but then he is my favourite fighter right now.

He looks like the terminator taught him to smile.

GGG by wide margin.

Two good choices in GGG and Kovalev, but I can't go past Anthony Joshua. The guy looks like he is carved out of rock, is 2m tall and is knocking out decent boxers like no one's business. Plus he seems to have a nasty streak in him, when he gets in the ring.

Whoever it is I know they'll be Eastern European

Triple intimidating G

Kovalev by a long way.

Fighting Chagaev in his adopted homeland Chechnya must be a daunting task these days

He hasn't fought anyone decent.

Oh please.....

GGG isn't intimidating at all.

Totally agree with Anthony Joshua and possibly Klitschko.

Ah, that is why most of his opponents lose mentally before even getting into the ring with him. Rubio and Geale quit when they were not hurt so bad, because Golovkin is not intimidating at all.

Ward......GGG....Kovalev

Depends on the criteria, if it's based purely on boxing ability then no doubt GGG takes top spot, but for overall intimidation factor it has to go to kovalev, he just has this whole "I'm going to fornicate you up and eat your soul" aura about him.

Beterbiev will prove these opinions wrong but I think their wrong anyway, GGG is a better choice.. Kovalev has been dropped, visibly hurt, not to mention guys are actually confident enough to fight him like Pascal and Grandpa Hopkins.. only one wanting GGG ain't even in his weight class.

Doesn't matter if he's an Ivan Drago, Terminator MOFO stone cold killer with ice running through his veins.....

He looks like a Tesco shelf stacker.

Naw those guys aren't intimidating at all imo.

Deontay wilder is fuucking gigantic, ripped up and can hit like a bulldozer.

I doubt anyone here would wanna be crossing an alley and stumble Upon that muthafucker.

Thomas "Cornflake" Lamanna

Golovkin
Wilder
Kovalev


Anyone who hurts opponents in the ring as often as these guys do are going to be intimidating.

Depends on the criteria really. Purely appearance then maybe someone like Lucas Browne. P4P boxing wise, GGG.

Kovalev is most intimidating... P4P at least. The thing that makes Kovalev scarier than GGG is that he actually seems to have cold and sadistic personality, while GGG is all smiles and "good boy!" when he's not knocking guys out.
Wlad is right up there with Kovalev- he has a great game-face when walking into the ring and staring down opponents, an imperious and contemptuous expression.

In this ordeer: GGG, Kovalev, Beterbiev and Walters.

if going off appearance and not ability then Alfredo Angulo

otherwise its Kovalev over GGG by some distance
