Boxer's who live(d) in their brother's shadows?

I was watching Bobby Pacquaio/Velazquez today and struck me as funny that two brothers, with such similar phsyical attributes and appearance, and one would be the #1 fighter in the sport and the other would be a decent journeyman at best. They are not even in the same league. I realize also that Ricky Hatton's brother Matthew is in the same boat. Mike Quarry had a respectable career but obviously never came close to reaching the acclaim of Jerry.

What are some of the other boxing bros who had one successful one and one (or more) who remained relatively obscure and unsuccessful? Obviously that can't be said about the Klitschkos. And even though Leon Spinks became one of boxing's casualties he did have his 15 minutes in the sunshine.

Henry Coppers brother was a good fighter just that Henry dropped Ali.

Wlad, and it can be said.

I believe Librado Andrade has a brother who boxes; and he claims is better than himself. Not as if Librado has a "stellar" career but he is a good fighter and you don't hear much about the sibling.

Also I believe Jorge Linares has a brother who fights:confused: Correct me if I'm wrong. If so he will have a hard time being as well respected as Jorge.

Bobby Pacquiao just needs to stop getting knocked out all the time and he'll be right there with Manny! Manny is known for his short right hook and most importantly his straight left, BUT, IMO Bobby has the better signature punch...the deadly low blow!

Donald Curry/Bruce Curry
Jake La Motta/Joey La Motta
Khaosai Galaxy/Khaokor Glaxy
Terry Norris/Orlin Norris
Ricky Hatton/Matthew Hatton

Im sure Muhammad Ali had a brother that fought on the Fight Of The Century card ? anyway heres some more that come to mind.

Milton McCrory/Steve McCrory
Henry Cooper/George Cooper Twin Brothers ?
Floyd Patterson/Ray Patterson

Chris Eubank - Peter and Simon

Tho both are P4P boxers, I'm guessing Rafa is more popular in Mexico than Juan Manuel due to their style of boxing... Rafa is more of a Mexican warrior style willing to go toe-to-toe anytime while Juan Manuel uses a somewhat boring counter punching style...

How OR what draws you to this conclusion?
Have you ever even been to Mexico?

That would be Nelson Linares.

Orlando Canizalez and Gaby....swore never to fight one another.
Harold Warren and Frankie
Matthew Hilton and Davey.....Matthew had some skills
Mike Ayala and Tony....both just sabotaged themselves badly.Tony ruined other lives as well.
Gabe Ruelas and Rafa....Always thought Gabe the better fighter
Victor Rabanales and Bruno
James Leija and Louie

Well I'm only guessing (see my original post)... :-X

I think Mexicans love punchers... most boxing fans love punchers... not counter-punchers...

For a while,I thought Derrick Gainer was Roy Jones Brother.He seemed to be on every card with him and always around him like an adopted puppy.
