    Where one fighter has more than a fleeting resemblance to another one.

    About 20 years ago there was a photo of Elijah Tillery in one of the boxing mags,and it was pointed out that he bore a facial resemblance to the great Muhammad Ali. Max Schmelling was remarked upon as looking similar to Jack Dempsey.

    Who can think of others ?

    At least d 1 that anarci had on his avatar reminded me of DLH 2d point where I thought it was dLH , but then I took into consideration it was B&W.
    Yes , Douglas and HW Moorer do look alike , maybe u should refresh your memory by watching their pix/fights.
    In a way , young Holyfiled and Michael Spinks look alike
