My choice is Ali vs Frazier. If you agree, what is your 2nd choice. If you don't agree, who do you think is the biggest rivalry in boxing.
thats a great call and one i'd forgotten about:goodtogether with ali-frazier i'd add robinson-lamotta and saddler-pep
not the biggest...just ones that sprung to mind....obvious enough ones really Griffith- Paret Walcott- Charles Zale- Graziano Bowe- Holyfield Duran- De Jesus Gatti- Ward Louis-Schmeling Saddler-Pep
Some of the more obvious ones are picked .So Jeanette /Langford/ McVey/Wills, is a Round Robin, of pretty awesome dimensions.
Yeah, I say if not Ali/Frazier then Saddler/Pep. But I'll think about more. Morales/Barrera definitely gets an honorable mention from me.
Surprised Tunney-Greb hasn't gotten a mention. Grantland Rice and Regis Welsh thought Harry took their second match, and some sources also had him getting the better of the newspaper draw for their fourth bout in Cleveland, when Gene was coming off his filmed shellacking of Carpentier. Could Greb have legitimately won that series 3-2? I can't see Ali and Frazier being eclipsed though, between the FOTC and Manila. Two phenomenal epic wars with reversed outcomes.
