    Was just thinking earlier watching Vazquez vs Marquez, has there even been better pound-for-pound boxing brothers than Juan Manuel and Rafael Marquez?! Just wondering everyone's opinions on this, can be active or non-active sets of brothers- Who are the best boxing brothers? (Ricky and Matthew must be in with a shout here... ;) )

    I like the Peterson brothers, Lamont and Anthony. Both still undefeated at 27-0 and 29-0 respectively, although that aint necessarily a great yardstick.
    I don't think you could say they were the best brothers as obviously they aint achieved yet what they may possibly go on to do. I enjoy watching em though so far, both can certainly box.
    FYI. Lamont is fighting Timothy Bradley on the 12th of this month.

    The Klitchko brothers have certainly achieved in the sport too.

    Spkinks and Klitschkos must be joint number one,

    Canazales brothers were both good

    The Spinks brothers have to take this surely, even with Leon rapid fall from grace.

    The Hatton bros:yep. In all seriousness, I'm saying the Marquez bros as they campaign in, arguably, the best divisions. The Mayweather family should get a shout as well with the two stand-out bros being Rog' and Jeff:yep.

    The booths, the Hattons,the Shepherds,the Gillbodys them 3 twats from down south who baseball batted someone? The Spinks's, the Klits. There were 2 London born Ozzy brothers The Waters I remember Guy waters,the other was called Troy, gettin beat by Dennis Andries for his world title,then 10 years later getting battered off David Starie.
    And Rafael Ruelas who beat Billy Schwer had a brother Gabriel.

    The Ruelas brothers, didn't one of them die in the ring? Never mind I looked it up. I was thinking about Gabriels fight with Jimmy Garcia, it was Garcia who died as a result of his injuries.
