They played football together in high school.
In the novel "The Outsiders" by S.E. Hinton, Darry wanted to fight Paul because he was frustrated and overwhelmed by the responsibilities of taking care of his younger brothers, Ponyboy and Sodapop, after their parents died. Darry felt pressure to provide for his family and ensure their well-being, leading to a buildup of stress and tension. His confrontation with Paul was a result of this pent-up frustration and his desire to assert his authority and protect his family.

Paul Holden is an old high school friend that Darry does not like. He is from the west side and got a football scholarship when Darry couldn't because even with it, Darry wouldn't be able to afford college.
He didn't. Darry shouted, "Come on. I'll fight anyone!" And Paul stepped up. But I guess Darry didnt want to fight him because he use to be his buddy. Darry just didnt want to lose his manlyness and step down.
Darry and Paul!! (:
they hate each other because darry was suppose to e with the socs but since his parents died he never got the opportunity to be like paul . They use to be friends until the misfortune and darry became a greaser due to poverty.

Darry dislikes Paul Holden because he believes Paul is a bad influence on his brother Ponyboy. Darry worries that Paul will lead Ponyboy into trouble and distract him from his responsibilities at home and school. Additionally, Darry may be protective of Ponyboy and want to ensure he stays on the right path.

Darry disliked Paul Holden because he was a Soc and represented the privileged, wealthy group that often looked down on Greasers like Darry. Additionally, Paul had been involved in conflicts with the Curtis brothers in the past, igniting animosity between them.

Darry and Paul!! (:
He is one of the people that Darry went to highschool with.
Darry and Paul!
Darry and Paul played football together before the Curtis family was torn apart. Darryl could have been one of Paul's soc friends if he hadn't been forced to take on the role of father to Sodapop and Ponyboy.
He took on Paul, they were really close friends in high school but because Darry was in the Socs they stopped being friends. It is also worth mentioning that Darry doesn't want to be with the Greasers because he doesn't want to stay with them the whole rest of his life because he actually does want to do something in his life. It is mentioned before Darry fought Paul by Ponyboy.
