    Lightning doesn't often strike twice. But its hard to dispute it strikes twice much more often then thrice. While there have been many families with 2 elite pro boxers(whether they be brothers, uncles, sons or cousins) there have been many fewer with 3.

    The Mayweather and Fury clans have more then 2 notable members but member 3 etc is really only remembered for the name.

    Any examples?

    Zivic's(6or7)
    Famechon's(2/3)
    Sands(6/7)
    Turpin's (3)
    Finnegan's(2)
    Gilroy's (5)

    loads more I suspect, but TOP Elite, rare, I guess.

    Sadly, Leon Calvin may have been added this dynasty if not for his murder. RIP.

    Notable mention to the Smith brothers.

    Paul, Stephen, Liam & Callum.

    All 4 brothers won the British title, which will never be done again.

    Callum & Liam both won world titles, Paul & Stephen both challenged for world titles. Paul arguably should’ve got the nod against Arthur Abraham but the judges gave it the other way…

    Floyd sr wasnt really an elite fighter. He fought some names but he was handily beaten in tjose fights. He was nothing special. A clubfighter really.

    I saw Leon Calvin fight. He was even better than Cory. He was the goods for sure. Just as skilled as Cory but he had his dad's aggression.

    Kostya Tszyu and Tim Tszyu were both legitimate world champions.

    Nikita’s story is far from finished and I doubt he’ll get there, but it’s not impossible.
