Sorry... but I don't believe, Cory has even a single HOFer on his record!
You're right, so far Zaragoza and Gatti are the only HOFers on Tracey's record... so that's another example of at least 2 fought by both a father...

Stribling is a good example, I think! Another that comes (to my) mind, is Jack Britton. Besides his long series vs Lewis, he's probably best...
