If the sport of mixed martial arts has taught us anything over the course of its
existence, it’s that looks can be deceiving. Time and time again, physically im-
posing fighters have been best by smaller, more technically proficient fighters.

Rather than being a purely physical factor, MMA’s most intimidating fighters
strike fear into their opponents’ hearts because of their reputation of brutality.
When a fighter consistently inflicts incredible amounts of damage on their op-
ponents, the word spreads fast. While being intimidating doesn’t necessarily
have a direct link to success, it sure doesn’t hurt. Intimidation can beat an op-
ponent before the fighters ever step into the cage. These are the most intimi-
dating fighting in MMA today.
