SuckaPunch 04-09-2005, 09:23 PM I'm just wonderin', why "El Terrible" for Morales. I'm sure it doesn't mean that he's terrible. It's probably some idiomatic expression in Spanish or something. Just curious, maybe someone can enlighten me.

ELPacman 04-09-2005, 11:32 PM All these nicknames are what make fighters unique, why don't we just say, no more nicknames allowed?
what is "popo"?
The sound you make when sucking on a nipple
Hence the fact that Acelino freitas was breast feeding untill the age of 10.
I swear to god. That is exactly where the nickname came from.

It's aiight to call him Pacman
but Manny "pacman" Pacquiao sounds gay
Just callin him Pacman sounds aiight tho
Eatit Amin 04-10-2005, 03:35 AM If Vladdy Matyushenko was in boxing, "The Janitor" would have to be top 10 in the pantheon of bad nicks.
TheGreat1 04-10-2005, 03:39 AM did anyone mention the Ding a ling man?
or touch of sleep, although that would be a good name if he had any power
"The Janitor"
LOL. That is so thug. If I were a boxer, my nickname would be "The Sweep", or "The Cleaner". Maybe "The Principal". Or maybe just "Tidy".
Eatit Amin 04-10-2005, 04:13 AM lol
Probably safe to say that the Russian (Vladdy is Russian) is probably something more like "The Cleanser," some kinda Russian mob-related slang thang.
Eatit Amin 04-10-2005, 04:15 AM It's damn funny that it ended up being translated to "The Janitor" in English, though. Can't you just see Vladdy's Russian advisors asking the genius that did the translating, their brows all knitted into furrows, "De Jahnitore? De Jahnitore? Zis means [insert Russian here]? Yes? Yes? Ze one who cleans ze blood??? YAH VONDERFOOOOOOL!!! YES, VEE ARE DA JAAAHNITOOOOOOOR!"
Komandos 04-10-2005, 08:13 AM Pipino

thunder from down under sounds like the name to some ****o or sumfin.
dando 04-10-2005, 08:08 PM Jermain "Bad Intentions" Taylor, now thats just plain retarded.
Invader_Stu 04-10-2005, 08:16 PM Hey did you hear that Andre Ward changed his nickname? Thank god ATF fighter was terrible, he is now the golden warrior. Its a little corny but its better than ATF whatever.LOL
Oh no way! I like good corny nicknames like ATF - but golden warrior is just bad corny :mad:
delaboxeo 04-10-2005, 09:17 PM thunder from down under sounds like the name to some ****o or sumfin.
