That made me think of something spooky. Maybe the uber-badasses we all commonly cite as being top tier teachers and fighters in their day were at one point in time easily provoked 20-somethings. Can you even imagine being a bouncer or just some poor schmuck in a bar trying to deal with an out of control Paul Vunak or Frank Cucci?...The people that post here would be scary as hell enough as they are to have a bad encounter with.

What about a Mike Brewer, Michael Wright, Demi Barbido, Ray Floro, Guro Raf...?

There would be no way to tell. It wouldn't be like some ego inflated boxer or MMAer you'd be able to tell on sight with an entourage, but just some average-joe. You guys are a bunch of wolves in sheep's clothing.

Is there any good way to tell if somebody is on that level, or is it like stepping into a bear trap. I want to know what cues YOU guys give off before a fight. This may be an interesting case study.
