Apart from FLOYD!

Which Boxer had his son go on to have a great Pro Boxing Career?


Pryor
Chavez Jr
Spinks
Frazier

Any really good stand outs?

Spinks out of all them

Pryor shouldn't even be on that list.

I didn't mean Pryor Jr was any good, just that his dad was.

Spinks was easily the best among the sons of those listed.

Ronald Hearns won't be keeping the family name going, that's for sure! Agreed, of that list Spinks is definitely the best.

Chavez Jnr is the most constant embarrassment to his father.

Maybe, but he has at least won a world title.

I guess Laila Ali would be the best woman daughter if that counts

Didn't Butterbean have a son that looked identical but got Ko'd in his only fight?

Tony Mundine very good middleweight contender, and his son Anthony Mundine who's held world titles. I'd say Mundine Jnr is better than most of those sons already mentioned that are around today.

(Whilst not strictly on topic) I'd say Ken Norton, Jr. was the most successful sporting offspring of a boxer.

Famous footballer I remember some discrepancies about him obtaining a fighters licences or entering the golden gloves because already pro athlete they didnt allow it & apparently he was a chip of the old block.
You ever stood next to him??
