In the past, mixed martial artists have earned the right to intimidate by looking mean, acting mean and performing even meaner.
They’ve done so by channeling a certain type of inner beast. One often depicted in movies such as Beowulf and Cloverfield.
From bone-splitting punches to chin-smashing kicks, these physically and mentally superior athletes have marked the cage with blood, sweat and destruction for nearly 20 years.
With that said, based completely on intimidation, here are the best of the best when it comes to instilling fear and doubt.
Enjoy.
