Name the best and worst boxing brothers combination in boxing history

Ah right, yeah I misunderstood the question then. You could phrase it as the widest gap in ability between siblings who turned pro then I suppose...
Mmmm. Still I guess there's a good few really unsuccessful bros of stars we just ain't heard about, the Judah Bros spring to mind - Daniel and Joseph. Joseph aka Chris Crosby had a brief 9 fight run as a pro and went 6 - 3(1). Daniel looked fairly promising against journeyman and club fighters but his limitations became glaringly apparent when he stepped up a bit. He's still fighting but his record now stands at 24(11) - 11(5).Comment

I'm not sure where I would put the Peterson brothers. They are somewhere in the middle. Not really good, but not bad either. Lamont and Anthony Peterson.
One of the worst brother combos I also have is Miguel Cotto and Jose Cotto
And Canelo Alvarez and all of his brothersLast edited by The Time; 04-23-2017, 05:09 AM.Comment

Into the best list Juan Manuel Marquez and Rafael Marquez.
Canelo Alvarez and Inocente Alvarez, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr and Omar Chavez, can be considered for the worst list.Comment

The Fullmer Brothers, Gene (55-6 Middleweight World Champ) , Don (54-20) contender, and Jay (20-5) were all pro boxers.
This would be the wrong family to get on the bad side of.
Gene was a tough man to deal with and has huge wins on his record.

Now that's going way back. I definitely remember Gene Fullmer seeing film of him during the Sugar Ray Robinson era. I wasn't aware of his brothers. That's good to know about such a historical fighter. Thanks for sharing.Comment
