Talking about boxers with 2 fighters (or more) on their records that seem to be from 2 (or more) different eras, for example muagbi has hagler and mcclellan on his resume, foreman has Ali/Frazier and holyfield/ Morrison and de la Hoya has paez/whitaker/Chavez and may/pac and Hopkins, you get the idea !

Ali has Archie Moore who lost to Marciano and Berbick who lost to Tyson. Jack Sharkey has both Dempsey and Louis on his record which is a good one.

dingaan thobela had Tony Lopez/mikel kessler

Looking at Ali, his opponents fought from 1935 (Moore) up to 2002 (Holmes). That 67 year span seems quite remarkable.

Roberto Duran-figthing Ken Buchanan and Vinny Pazienza?
Saoul Mamby-Saensak Muangsurin and Javier Castillejo?

Carl Thompson - Chris Eubank and David Haye.

Roy Jones Jr / James Toney - Mike McCallum and Denis Lebedev.

Hector Camacho Jr - Jesse James Leija and David Lemieux.

good one

Joe Walcott fought Harold Johnson and his son (not on the same night).

Larry Holmes fought Norton/Ali, Tyson, Holyfield and McCall. That's the best part of 3 eras.

pat lawlor had benitez/duran, Norris/Camacho and calzaghe which could cover up to 4 eras !

Wow, crazy.

Arguello had Marcel and Olivares and Mancini and Pryor.

Holyfield had Foreman, Tyson and Valuev.

Toney had Nunn, Jones, Barkley, McCallum and Holyfield and Ruiz.

Bruno fought Bugner, Witherspoon, Tyson and Lewis.

Zarate fought Zamora, Gomez, Pintor and Fenech.

Azumah Nelson boxed Sanchez, Gomez, Fenech, Whittaker.

Jorge Castro has a decent spread of fighters:

Norris, Jones, Johnson, JD Jackson, Duran, JC Gomez, Mayfield, Jirov, Rothmann etc.

Whittaker - Trinidad/DLH, Vasquez/McGirt, Chavez/Nelson/Paez/Haugen/Ramirez

Pendleton - Trice/Randall/Mayweather/Paul/Bramble, Whittaker/Spann/Paez/Ruelas/Lopez, Trinidad/Phillips/Millett/Tackie/Page then Hatton. Pretty crazy resume, not including the Parisis and Tysons of this world.

Howard Davis Jr - Watt, Rosario, Taylor, Camacho, McGirt, Roseblatt

Bugner fighting a father and son - Joe and Marvis Frazier - has a fairly unique ring to it. I wonder how many other occurrences there have been of that?

Tony Mundine fought Luis Rodriguez and Murray Sutherland.

Walcott did it first.

These are fairly recent examples, but cruiserweight contender Dmitry Kudryashov stopped Oleksandr Okhrei and his father Kostiantyn Okhrei, while heavyweight fringe-contender Marcin Rekowski knocked out Elijah McCall, lost a split decision to his father Oliver, then won a UD against Oliver in a rematch.

Right, sounds like it's more common than I thought.

Likewise

pretty sure chavez and son shared a common opponent as I think did Camacho and son

Grover Wiley, the dude who beat Snr in his last fight?

Sounds about right

It's kinda weird. I know the fight happened and not entirely sure I watched it at the time but it's at the end of the JC Chavez docu. In that same docu it shows a very young JC Jnr looking pretty goofy and I'd put him at no more than about 15 but only a couple of years after he beat his dad, he's in with him. Guess he [was] just very young looking.
