    It has been reported that Duran kissed DeJusus even though he knew he had aids.That was considered very risky at the time

    Maybe not the worst, but Sam Langford - Jack Johnson deserves a shout.

    Frank Bruno certainly couldn’t stand the sight of him. Never seen Frank so riled up though things also got a bit heated between him and Joe Bugner in the lead up to their fight.

    I thought of that one right away, also. I would imagine there was no love lost between Peter Jackson and John L. Sullivan, either, since Sullivan refused to give him his deserved shot at the belt. In the Case of Dempsey and Wills, it was more the Promoter that nixed that fight than Dempsey, himself, and I believe Wills understood that as well.

    I believe there was a lot of bitterness in the Terry McGovern v Young Corbett bouts, but it may have been more of a case of Corbett baiting McGovern.

    I know that Duran hurled insults in Spanish at Sugar Ray Leonard's wife prior to their first meeting in Montreal.
