Back in 2011, noises were being made that Nigel Benn’s son, Conor, was considering a life inside the boxing ring. The inevitable suppositions followed, in various articles, that one day Benn and Eubank may fight again – in the form of a battle between their sons.

What I’d like to ask relates to this. Has this happened before, where a bout between two fathers is followed, a generation later, with a bout between their sons? If so, how did these fights pan out?

I might be way off but didn't Laila Ali fight Joe Frazier's daughter?

(Not quite father & son but near enough!)

Not quite, but Hector Camacho Sr & Jr both fought Luis Ramon Campas within a few months of each other. That must be a pretty unique event.

Another not quite, but I think I remember a father and son actually fighting each other, they were Dutch heavyweights if memory serves.
