Because he was this 6ft4 giant with a lot of weight behind him, he was also very sporty as well, he was an athlete. So he had a lot of presence about him. Then the more obvious reason for him being feared was the way he dealt with people that opposed him, he very publicly had people executed. He was also very temperamental so if he was in a bad mood then anyone around him was likely to be executed, for example after accusing Wolsey of Praemunire and sentencing him to death, he soon regretted it.
