    Marquez hated Pacquiao with a deep and burning passion.

    Any where both men didn't shake hands afterwards, hug afterwards, kiss afterwards or make love to each other afterwards

    Fury was so god damn nice to Wilder and Wilder hated him just because he beat his ass in the ring.

    Wilder will get over it when he gets a free belt in the near future and Fury has retired and people hold him in extremely high regard, Wilder will be like "yeah only guy who could beat me was a GOAT who cheated"

    Agreed
    Fury did obviously sell the fight with trash talk, but he always spoke so highly of wilder and still does

    Even when he was robbed in the first fight he took it on the chin and was gracious to deontay

    Wilder even had his wife shout insults at fury and Tyson held it together

    Wilder has a lot of heart and a warrior in the ring. Can't take that away from him, but he is an excuse making terrible loser. After the 3rd fight he should have taken Fury's embrace instead of telling him to F off

    Fury broke him and showed who he really is inside

    Tyson vs Mitch Green, I've never seen Tyson that pissed off at any other fighter before the start of the match

    Will not get a better class act and should god forbid Fury ever lose a fight you'll see how a true fighting man reacts.

    Lennox Lewis Vs Mike Tyson. Tyson wanted to eat his children (even tho Lennox has no children), took a bite of his leg and when the fight happened there was security in the middle of the ring to stop them getting near eachother. Tyson was humble enough after Lennox battered him but at the time the hate was real.

    What's funny is that if Tyson said that he wanted to eat Lennox's children, it would be more apt now because Lennox now has children. LOL

    De La Hoya/Vargas had legitimate hate surrounding it between both of them. Their fight really was the culmination of a feud that had lasted almost an entire decade up to that point. It's good that they've mended fences now, but they absolutely loathed each other back in the day.

    For me it has to be from both guys. Usually it’s one sided. Guys that had real hate when fighting was Barrera and Morales. DLH and Vargas to me was more Vargas. I didn’t think DLH realy cared and only hyped it up to sell fight. Marquez dislike of Pac is real but I don’t think Pac cares. GGG and Canelo was mutual. They both hated each other but have buried it and moved on after the 3rd fight
