again, what am I trying to discredit? I just don't think it is a classic rivalry. the motivation wasn't competition between two great fighters.
they both looked motivated to beat the **** out of each other when the bell rang to me.

When you see people crying for a fifth fight you know this is something else, unlike other fighters they let their fists do all the talking... and well, the end of the story (don´t think there will be a fifth) was genuinely EPIC. We won´t see anything like this again, we watched history.

Their 3rd fight was 4 years after the 1st and both gained 10 pounds by then. Just because they were heavyweights and cant possibly go up weight classes means it was a great one?

This doesn't top Ali-Frazier. The Pacqiao Marquez III fight could have been better it was the worst of the 4 fights.

context out of the ring contributes to making a series of fights between 2 boxers a rivalry. we don't call every series of fights between 2 men a rivalry do we?
