    Chavez and Chavez jr
    Gustavo Espadas and Gustavo Espadas jr (son did it in 2000)
    Jorge paez and Jorge paez jr
    Ali and laila? (If we're not being sexist)

    Can't think of any more.

    Future- Monk Foreman? Chris Eubanks jr? I hope.

    Jorge Paez Jr never has won nor has he ever fought for a world title so that one is out

    Wilfredo Vazquez Sr and Jr both have won world titles and they're the first father and son duo to win titles in the same weight class

    Paez Jr won the WBC Youth World welterweight title.

    Which is technically a world title.

    But to be fair I was clutching at straws and kinda knew it wouldn't count lol.

    I knew the Vazquez one but I never knew it was the same weight class.

    that's more of a regional or interim title type thing, not really a world title
