Relatives who faced off in the ring?

All this talk about the two Klitchsko's has me wondering. To anyone's recollection have any fighters who were brothers or even cousins ever faced each other? I know some good friends have on numerous occasions. Shoot Tillman was in Holyfield's wedding party or vise-versa before Evander destroyed him.

 

Roy Jones fought his daddy three times.

 

The Jakubowski bros

 

I'd pay to watch a Mayweather family Battle Royale. Give Jeff a chainsaw and have all the others unarmed & handcuffed.

 

I am in favor of this idea.

 

I like it

 

Really?

 

Thanks. That would be an interesting highlight to see.

 

chris byrd fought one of his brothers as an amateur.

 

this is much more common in amateur wrestling.

 

There was a sanctioned father v son match a few years ago I think in Germany. The father fought under an alias in what seemed like a record padder for the son, who won by knockout.

The father's alias was Rocky Van or something like that, but I don't remember their real names other than it being Sr v. Jr

 

yea i remember reading that on fightnews. the dad was also his trainer or something and stepped in when the original opponent didnt show. what a farce that was.

 

Its amusing that people so-castigate the Klitschkos for not fighting each other, when the Moyers, Mayweathers, Fullmers, Spinks, Marquez's Quarrys etc never seemed to have fought each other.

 

Most of the Rest of them Fought in DIFFERENT Divisions Though...The Klitschko's R INTENTIONALLY Muddying the Heavyweight Picture...We've Known who the 2 Best Guys Have Been for Quite some Time Now, but when we Look Back Upon this Era, we Can Only GUESS on Who THE BEST was...

Possibly so, possibly so.....still.......I think we know who the best of them is or was....maybe they should do extended heavy-sparring sessions so we can see a little better.
