Benn, Eubank, Fury, Hatton: The 10 best sons of former fighters in British boxing today ranked

Boxing has long been considered a father-son sport going all the way back to the Marquess of Queensberry himself.

Conor Benn, Chris Eubank Jr, Tyson Fury and Campbell Hatton are just some of the names that have followed in their fathers’ footsteps.

But who are the best sons of former fighters in British boxing today?

Fortunately our friends over at Boxing News have ranked the top 10 for us so we don’t have to do it ourselves.

Any objections, feel free to send them their way instead.

Honourable mentions go to Tommy Fury, Aadam Hamed and Lerone Harrison – all young up-and-comers themselves who didn’t manage to make the cut.

Since claiming the WBC heavyweight title against Deontay Wilder in 2020, the Gypsy King has cemented his place as one of if not the greatest heavyweights of all-time.

His dad John, also a former heavyweight himself, also fought professionally but lost four of his 13 fights.

He never quite hit the lofty heights of Tyson and after retiring has become a popular television guest.

It’s hard enough being the the son of a legend but it’s even harder when you happen to share the same name.

Considered by some as one of the greatest fighters of his generation, Chris Eubank Sr was an absolute force to be reckoned with at middleweight and super-middleweight, as he held his titles over a five-year period and beat a number of his leading contemporaries including Nigel Benn, Graciano Rocchigiani and Michael Watson.

In comparison, Eubank Jr has lost two of his and has never won a major world title. That said, he’s not done too badly either, as he’s been in contention for a while now.
