    Great question, I love Vasquez/Marquez because it was brutal with high skill.

    Morales and Barrera had serious hate for each other.

    I actually think it has to be Ali / Frasier for the significance of it. But the Barrera / Morales one was also a "true rivalry" with real bad blood.

    What about Duran-Leonard or Leonard-Hearns? Greb-Tunney? Wills-Langford? Pep-Saddler?

    There are so many grat rivalries but i think Ali-Frazier was the best - and the most hyped.

    I loved Barrera Morales, and its basically the one I am most familiar with however Ali Frazier is probably the most popular
