    Cotto and Trinidad are rumoured to dislike each other.

    I don't think Cotto is particularly popular with anyone, for some reason......

    I've never read any of his interviews, so no idea what he's like in person, but he does look like a bit of a poser with all those new tattoo's every weight in, and wearing shades indoors.

    Nothing wrong with shades indoors. I quite often sport my Ray Bans

    Cotto always looks like a mundane character to me. His "I'll let my promotor deal with that" line is about as old as Hatton's jokes.

    I think his 'I will fight anyone my company puts in front of me' statement sort of backfired when he was told it was Margarito next :lol:

    Biggest feuds include Ali vs everyone he went against, especially his biggest opponents - Liston, Foreman and Frazier.

    Liston wanted to kill Ali, Foreman still cannot take it he lost and Frazier has a lot of bad blood for Ali still (watch the thriller in manilla documentary for a better insight into this).

    Lewis vs Bowe :deal

    When Bowe was going eight rounds with that German pudding this month he spent more time looking at Lennox than the opponent.

    and Lennox has recently offered to come out of retirement and beat up Bowe for free :lol:.

    One more feud: Herbie Hide and Warren.

    British boxing:

    probably Eubank and Benn.

    World boxing:

    Maybe Pep and Saddler; you could also include Ali and Frazier as well as Griffith and Paret.

    Has, has been mentioned Christie/Kaylor is up there and there was no love lost between Minter and Hagler either.

    Sir 'enry took along time to come to terms with Bugner and as far as I know never forgave Gibbs.

    Surely the feud with the most hate was between Benn and Eubank. They really hated each other...did anyone see the 'Gladiator' documentary they did together??

    You can never be sure how genuine the bad feeling is but there has been a lot of needle between these recently :

    Froch & Calzaghe
    Witter & Hatton
    Maccarinelli & Hide
    Haye & Hide

    Unilkely we'll ever see any of these match ups though. :?
