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

[Beanflicker]

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 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

Donald Curry had another brother who was a pro fighter Graylin Curry. Don and Bruce both won world titles, Graylin never took boxing as seriously as the others

That would be Enrique Ornelas.

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

That would be Nelson Linares.

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.

Zab Judah/Joel Judah

[holmcall]

Robbie Sims, a very inderrated fighter fought in the shadows of his half-brother, Marvelous Marvin Hagler.

[Preme]

Wlad, and it can be said.

na, Wlad doesn't live in his brothers shadow at all. He has made as much if not more money than vitali, and is as well known. To live in somebodys shadow, to me anyhow you would go about pretty much unknown because all the attention is on the other person, as is true for mathew hatton, bobby pac and a few others. this is in no way the case for Wlad.

Zab Judah/Joel Judah

thought Joel was Zabs father, and was a kick boxer?

Some one has already said Matthew Hatton

But I don't think Matthew's heart has ever truly been in boxing If Ricky wasn't a boxer Matthew would be a carpet fitter

He has had a nice little career and achieved more than most and more than he probably expected, so I don't think he lives in his shadow just firmly attached to Ricky's coat tails and happy to be there
