List of boxing rivalries

:This is a partial list of some famous boxing rivalries. (If there is one that is not included here, please feel free to add it.)

Just like in other sports, boxing has had its share of famous rivalries. Boxing rivalries can cause great interest among boxing fans due to many reasons. Usually, reasons involved for a rivalry between two particular boxers to become interesting to fans include: contrasting styles, ethnic background, boxer personalities, and general uncertainty as to which boxer is better than the other.

Boxing commentators and historians usually define boxing rivalry as two or more fights between two similarly talented fighters.
