The best father and son relationship in boxing

[LHL]

Nonito Donaire father couldn't be that bad of a trainer look how his son turned out. Almost sure he dropped his father lately though

[FLINT ISLAND]

Richie Woodall and his Dad

They trained together

And went fishing together

[diagnosismurder]

Also there is Aaron Pryor Jr and his dad Aaron Pryor the world light welterweight champion but his kid is only domestic standard

Obviously not quite the best just yet but i like the look of Shawn Porter so far, he's trained by his father Kenny Porter. Pac's chief sparring partner for Cotto and by all accounts gave him a few problems early on in camp, currently 13-0-0 (10 ko's) as a pro

Seen him last week seems to do everything well but nothing great.

Yeah i seen him last week, easily his biggest test to date but came through it pretty comfortably.

He's been doing alot of work with Roach at the Wildcard as well so i can only see him improving. Fantastic prospect IMO

[LHL]

Working at Wildcard is probably the best thing he can do at the minute hopefully he lives up to his billing anyway.

I think the Calzaghe and Woodhall Father and Son partnership have produced World Titles and results...what is there abroad that is better, please don't tell me Moseley...

[Dan684]

Ricky Hatton and his father have done well for themselves. Better than Calzaghe and that impet too

Yeah, trained his brother Glenn too and now trains Marvin Sonsona, who won a WBC bauble at super fly last year and is fighting TONIGHT for the WBO super bantam title against Wilfredo Vasquez Jr, coincedentally the Son of Wilfredo Vasquez!!!!

Small World, eh

As individuals they've done well but as far as relationships go you can't really beat the Calzaghe one.

Hate away as much as you like but they never lost together including the amateur fights which is some feat considering Enzo taught himself the trade as well.

I know what you're both saying but the thread started never stated that it had to be a Father who coached, just the best relationship in the sport.

That's a fair point Dan and if they all compared their last 3 bank statements I guess that Ricky and Ray would be sitting at the top...

The success is gauged by the greenbacks as we can't forget that pro boxing ain't a sport, it's a brutal business...
