    I don't know, at least when it comes to cricket we've had plenty of father/son combos - with the sons outshining their father. Hadlee, Cairns, Harris, Braces and Latham on their way.<br><br>
    Rugby might be the case Paul Williams, Anton Oliver good careers but not their dads for sure.

    <p>Back on topic, Haumono's last fight was shown on Sky Sports.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>He took several rounds to finish off a fat unfit Argentinian who didn't even attempt to throw a punch.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I won't be giving duco $50 to watch the farce this fight will be.</p>

    <p>will be interesting how they promote the next one and for how much, especially with the streaming issues they have had too.</p>

    <p>Anton would go down as a better AB than Frank surely ? I mean he was one of the hard men of his generation but, throwing aside, Anton was pretty decent.</p>

    <p>Don Bradmans son changed his name by deed poll to escape the pressure. I guess averaging over 100 is quite a bit to ask for.</p>

    <p>I'm pretty certain Adine Harper/Wilson took a year off netball to have a kid, came back and then retired because she was pregnant again</p>

    <p>My boys ( 6 and almost 8 ) have been mistaken for twins on three separate occasions by the same person, I might start going to a different supermarket where the staff are a bit more onto it......</p>

    <p>Wouldn't be surprised. Imagine the pressure to play any sport and be brilliant at it.</p>

    <p>Listening to Darcy on radio sport, interviewing Jeff Wilson :)</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>His first question was, so how far did you make it in basketball?</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Which one of you stalkers is Darcy?</p>

    <p>I smell a rat , and I dont think Duco can see it , </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>the biggest paydays for Joshua are , Fury  ,  Haye , Klitchko , </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Joseph is the mandatory and has no profile in England , no profile equals little money , </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Haye beats Joseph and takes the mandatory  , that gets rid of that problem , Haye and Joshua have the same promoter , </p>
    <p> </p>

    Gotta keep away from Hayes as nothing to gain there. Very high risk fight. Whyte would be a better option if looking to raise parkers uk profile

    Exactly, Haye would be a tougher fight for Joe than Joshua IMO,<br><br>That would be a fight I would be avoiding unless it involved the title itself
