Sonny Liston and Danny Williams
3 names are needed between Liston and Williams. This is an easy one. You have Liston, now find a Liston opponent, then the opponents's opponent, and so on. Just find the connection.
Here's a funny one that connect a HOF'er who started at 90 lbs to a HOF'er who was about 230 or so...
George Dixon, Terry McGovern, Joe Gans, Sam Langford, Jack Johnson, Jess Willard
That's out of my range. I don't follow the black & white era much. I am from the 70's and on. A bit of 60's also.

Amazing how you can connect a jr. lightweight with a middleweight.
Yeah, it's pretty funny what you can find, as you can connect a Featherweight like Willie Pep to Muhammad Ali by only using a few fighters...
Pep, Angott, Robinson, Maxim, Moore, Ali.
That's a tough one, I think.
Hmm...Limon, Chavez, DLH, Vargas, Wright, Soliman?
Does that work?
That works, but it was not the one I had in mind. I had this:
Limón, Camacho, DLH, Trinidad, Wright, Soliman.

How about this one?
Rafael Limón to Sam Soliman.
I want four names between Limón and Soliman.
That's a tough one, I think.
