Can’t we all just get along? Some of sport’s fiercest feuds

The Woods-Garcia feud appears to be dead and gone, during the whole saga- it was all TENSION ELEKTRIKA across the Golfing world...  However, sport's long history is full of even more bitter feuds, encompassing wars of words and even outright violence. And am like Cant We All Just Get Along?

Sportunes is unleashing 3 of the fiercest sports feuds



Muhammed Ali Vs Joe Frazier



Ali's astonishing powers of eloquence always seemed to desert him when the subject of Frazier came up. He resorted to branding him "dumb", "Uncle Tom", and laid into his appearance on more than one occasion: "Frazier is so ugly that he should donate his face to the US Bureau of Wildlife," was just one such epithet.

Frazier has never forgiven Ali for his cruelty "I hated Ali," Frazier said in 1990. "God might not like me talking that way, but it's in my heart." They fought three times, Ali winning twice.

Roy Keane Vs Mick McCarthy



"Mick, you're a liar … you're a f*****g w****r. I didn't rate you as a player, I don't rate you as a manager, and I don't rate you as a person. You're a f*****g w****r and you can stick your World Cup up your arse. The only reason I have any dealings with you is that somehow you are the manager of my country! You can stick it up your b******s." What a way for the Ireland captain to withdraw from the 2002 World Cup following arguments over Ireland's facilities and training in Saipan. The two men later made up - though not after long and bitter recriminations.

Kobe Bryant Vs Shaquile O'Neal 



Two of NBA's biggest stars were team-mates at the LA Lakers from 1996 to 2004 and won consecutive titles from 2000-2002. However, the two giant egos were never compatible as both felt they were the true leaders of the team. After some bitter exchanges behind the scenes, Shaq was eventually traded to the Miami Heat in 2004. He said of Kobe: “In the seven or eight years we were together, we were never together.”
