Considering the way it started and the way it ended and all the excitement in between, I think yes, it's got to be one of the best rivalries ever.
It almost ended before it started with Marquez getting dropped 3 times in the opening round of their very first fight. And ended 8 years later with Marquez scoring the KO of the Year after being just a punch or two away from securing victory in their three previous fights... epic.

This is a decent thread but it been ruined by some school boy shyte.
Not the best but definitely deserves a mention.
Nigel Benn vs Chris Eubank.
Not sure how big it was across the pond but in the UK it was huge.
Benn - Eubank was huge. Those two genuinely hated each other back then. The second fight pulled massive worldwide TV audience and, if I remember right, there were over 40,000 people at the fight.
Ali-Frazier is definitely the most memorable and the one everyone knows, its hard not to call it the best.
I personally love Vazquez-Marquez, and think it should get more recognition. They had my favorite trilogy, until they had to go and fight a fourth time.
I completely agree bro with your whole post..Great minds think alike, lol
I think Barrera won the best rivalry ever in the 3 fights with Morales but Ali and Joe were legends whos battles were epic
Gatti and Ward probably deserve a mention too. I'm not sold on the Marquez - Pac rivalry or atleast it isnt one of my favourites. SRR vs the raging the bull is another for teh all timers.
I agree..What do you think was the best one??Sorry if ya already answered this question...I have to go with Ali Frazier...It was the biggest most memorable one of all time..Not to mention the fights really lived up to the billing as well...

Hatred??? How can you "hate" someone online??? You just recognize who's full of s**t online, that's all. And you fit the bill.
You've given me Red K twice and attached messages calling me a f*ggot and stupid f*ggot both times. Quit ducking that and just own it.
I don't even hand out Karma hardly ever, I've probably only done so like 5-10 times my entire time on here.
Don't waste ya time with that clownshoe...Dude red K'd me like a B1tch because I said Valero was a murderer which he is...That kid is a fuccking clown believe me...
The biggest is Ali Frazier..I mean the level it got to on a National stage and pub it got was out of this world...Even now generations later everyone knows of it...Ali vs Frazier was the biggest rivalry in the history of the sport...But my personal favorite is Marquez vs Vasquez...

this was a good one. we got the 2nd fight out here on Showtime and I remember seeing it back then. i went back and watched a couple of documentaries and build-ups to the first fight, it seemed pretty epic to be in the middle of it. great entrances and the fights lived up

I'm done being subjected to hatred and lies. Have a good night.
I'll be looking forward to your abusive karma messages in a week or two. When you can hand it out again

No, because I rarely give Karma to anyone, good or bad.
You on the other hand, call people f*ggot this and f*ggot that. You know it. Keep lying though, it's sad. Just own it man. I respected you when I thought you owned your s**t, I still thought you were full of s**t obviously, but I respected that you owned it, or so I thought.
Now knowing you lie about it and don't keep it 100.....than you're a clown and a joke. Just own it.....it's not hard.
