Best/Worst Father-Son Combo

[Taansend]

I was watching some random videos earlier & saw this....

Only a father could think of this for a young kid (well, maybe not )

Anyway, there have been various examples of a father training a son. Who are the ones that stand out in your mind, whether they are great fighters or not?

The top two for me are the Calzaghe's & the Lomachenko's.

And knowing this site, there is no strict criteria I love how a simple question gets twisted but it just proves the level of knowledge & love of boxing this site has

Worst?
UK - Eubanks
USA - Garcias (the Broners are just embarassing - brush my hair pops)
Promotional - Hearns

[Boxing Prospect]

The Inoue's? Shingo trains Naoya and Takuma, and his nephew Koki. One of the most under rated trainers on the planet right now

Well not really Barry but his demon offspring...

[ewenhay]

The Mayweathers probably win both awards!

[leejonesjnr]

Richie and Len Woodhall did a fantastic job

[CHRIS TARRANT]

Calzaghe for the best ?????

BANG BANG BANG BANG

Everyone keeps saying that Lomas father trained him from childhood, if so I'd go with him, double Olympic gold, unreal amateurs record, done very well in pros so far in such quick time and he has some crazy skills. If he's always been his trainer I'd say it's best combination imo

[MightyWarrior]

Worst was Joe Frazier, threw poor Marvis in with Holmes then Tyson, lasting about 3 minutes total and won't remember much about either of them

[Bladder]

Two weight world champion Darrin Van Horn was trained by his father.

[bennie]

For every exception, the rule decrees that father/son combinations in boxing is a disaster.

[Ossyrules]

Successful father son

Calzaghe (enzo and joe)
Woodhall (len and Richie)
Mayweather (Floyd and Floyd - though turbulent)
Porter (Shawn and father whose name I don't know)
Garcia (Danny and angel)

Juries out

Eubank (chris and chris)
Benn (Nigel and Conor - though possibly not classified due to nigels lack of involvement)

[ewenhay]

Darkie and Stephen Smith. Just for the memory of the smug Mickey Vann getting chased

DeMarcus Corley is a bit of a pudendum to his son.

Romeo Romeao's dad is fornicating strange too. No xmas for that kid. A swim in the sea at Barry Island and then a morning of having your legs whacked with sticks.

Steve Goodwin giving his boy and girl 50 Essex ticket sellers to match on a show is a bit of a pudenda trick too.

Calzaghe and son worked well.

The Hattons fell out and the police got involved.

Like someone said....itll be interesting to see how the Eubanks get on in the long run.

[forcefraser]

Collins. His dad was in the corner and he watched him take a brutal shellacking against Resto

Should have pulled the lad out. Must be a horrible situation watching your lad take a pasting from the corner

[Counter-puncher]

No mentions of:

Morales
Trinidad
Moseley

?

I mean, I know Lomachenko is all the rage at the moment but damn, he's achieved 1/4 what those dudes did?

[orbtastic]

No mention of the one of the most obvious? Roy Jones?

[BigDoofus]

Who was that Sheffield boxer who camped out in the wild with his dad foraging for food?

[PredatorHayds]

Not father but Cottos uncle for not doing his designated job of watching Margaritos hands get wrapped.
Tend to recall Cotto gave him a few slaps back in Puerto Rico. (Can't not admire Cotto)

Superbad.
