Who are we?

I was thinking Arturo and Joe but they weren't in different centuries.

I was going to say Syd & Fitz Vanderpool

What is the answer?
The Matthysse's was another that came too mind but I'm almost certain they was born in the same country (Argentina)

I should probably have specified, that by "world" title I mean one of the "generally recognized" titles - WBA, WBC, WBO, IBF.

Anyway, even if we include the WBF, All Fitz's fights for this title took place in the same century (the 21st century didn't begin until January 1, 2001).


As for the Matthysse brothers - they have only boxed in this century, so they can't be candidates.

They did in fact both fight for world titles in different centuries - so that's the correct answer right there. Good job!
