Father-Son Boxing Career Comparisons

[TitoFan]

Are there cases where the sons have been famous, and the dads had been famous as well? That's a tough one.

Another example of a father-son boxing combo was Hector "Macho" Camacho, and Camacho Jr.
Junior showed a little promise early on, but fizzled out faster than a candle in a gale force wind.

hows about actors? the first one that comes to mind with regards to actors is Keifer Sutherland, as for boxers in the UK again as much as it pains me to say it Eubank Jr is quite a big name for the casuals.

I want to call him a cunt but he isn't at David Hayes level just yet but he is certainly knocking on the door

cory spinks had a pretty good career he won a few world titles, beat mayorga and so on, son of leon who wasnt that great but was certainly famous after beating ali.

and mentioning ali, not father son but laila ali is one of the most famous female boxers ever(mostly due to being related to being mohammeds daughter :S), no idea if she was any good as I dont watch female boxing.

Cory and Leon are a pretty good example of a father-son combo where there isn't a clear-cut winner as to who was more famous/ successful. I'm sure you'd get an argument either way. Michael, Leon's brother, was pretty good in his own right.

Leila was good, but it seems she faded quite quickly.

Couldn't be a wider gap than how Aaron Pryor jr ended up compared to his Father. 6'4 and double digit losses was not Pops way. Guty Espadas Sr and Jr I believe were the very first Father-son pair to win titles, with Jr arguably doing just as well and being robbed vs an undefeated Erik Morales. Tracy Patterson and Floyd did very well for themselves.
