    Roy Jones Jr. I am not sure it is rare. Many fighters come from fighting families. Oscar Delahoya was better than his father also.

    Many fighters have better boxing careers than their fathers. A lot of great fighters entered the sport because of their fathers.

    But usually when a fighter is a great fighter, or a very good ne, and has a son that enters the sport, the son isn't very good.

    It´s not boxing but I´d go with Michael and Brian Laudrup. Finn Laudrup the father.
