"iron" mike tyson is still my alltime favorite cause it flows
i always liked [the tan terror] and [kid dynamite] myself

Honestly though, and I don't know why.

But Evander "The Real Deal" Holyfield is my favorite nickname of all time.

But Evander "The Real Deal" Holyfield is my favorite nickname of all time.


yeah, true that. i think almost any fighter would take that name had it not been taken by Holy first....

Honestly though, and I don't know why.

"cause im realer than real deal holyfield"

Yeah there are so many good nicknames. Jorge "La Hiena" Barrios is cool because he looks just like a damn hyena.

Oneil "Give em Hell" Bell is pretty cool too.

But for the sake of right now....I'd say it's a tossup between Archak Termaliksatain and Juan Lazcano for having the coolest nicknames.

OMG i forgot about Vinny [The Pazmanian Devil]Pazienza....lol i love his name

OMG i forgot about Vinny [The Pazmanian Devil]Pazienza....lol i love his name

haha yeah that's a good one.


Here are some other absolutely terrible ones.

Michelle "The Gentleman" Picirillo.

Nate "The Galaxy Warrior" Campbell.

Mikkel "Viking Warrior" Kessler.

Those are just ****ing stupid plain and simple.

yeah, true that. i think almost any fighter would take that name had it not been taken by Holy first....

Yeah I love this topic and could spam it all day long. Here are a bunch of other badass ones in my opinion.

Arturo "El Silencioso" Morua. The Silencer.

Nauofel "Chocolata" Ben Rabah.

Victor "El Negrito" Castro. lol that's just hilarious.

Corrie "The Sniper" Sanders

Julio "The Kid" Diaz. That's cool because it's old western style.

Mzonke "The Rose of Khaleyelitsha" Fana. That's exotic.

Fernando "The Thief" Trejo. That's ****ing hardcore....lol.

James "Bonecrusher" Smith has to be one of the best

I don't like nicknames like ''Pretty Boy'' or ''Golden Boy''

Donald the cobra Curry..it really did match his style..

Nigel Benn the dark destroyer...

My favorite is my nickname(DYNAMITEDYE) the weirdist is Ding-a-ling-man

dunno if this has been mentioned..
John the beast Mugabi..

my picks are

joe "the brown bomber" louis
"big" george foreman
tommy" the hitman" hearns

How about Andrew "Six Heads" Lewis? Or Richard "The Alien" Grant? Anyone know how they got those names?

Nate "The Galaxy Warrior" Campbell, wtf?

How about Andrew "Six Heads" Lewis? Or Richard "The Alien" Grant? Anyone know how they got those names?

A while back....they talked about that on H.B.O.

A sparring partner Andrew Lewis had claimed he was hit so hard that he saw six of Andrew. I don't know about the "Alien" thing.

lance "goofi" whitaker ...yup... okay... really....

bad intentions is the stupidest specially since he always looks like a scared little boy in the ring.

I second that ****.

M.A.B. "the baby face assassin" that has an old 1920's mobster feel to it.....

although no one has it, I always thought that a good nickname would be "The Disease". because thats what you'd be inflicting on your opponent, dis-ease.....

The stupidest nick name is "The Little Big Man"Shamrba Mitchell.

The stupidest nick name is "The Little Big Man"Shamrba Mitchell.
yeah but that was because he is little and fights like a heavy ....well thats what they say

The Master of Disaster is my favourite outside of Sugar ......

Also I like USS steve cunningham it makes some sense.

I don't like nicknames like ''Pretty Boy'' or ''Golden Boy''
i like golden boy but when announcers say it in spanish.

the bayonne bleeder chuck wepner
james "lights out" toney

Duangpetch "Nakornthongparkview" Saengmorakot

A while back....they talked about that on H.B.O.

A sparring partner Andrew Lewis had claimed he was hit so hard that he saw six of Andrew. I don't know about the "Alien" thing.


I always thought that it was because he had a big forehead so they called him six heads. Larry Mechant once said he had six heads but no chins.

SuperBad, Like Bernard Mays

Rockin' :boxing:

McCallum and Toney will always have the best nicknames in my opinion. The Bodysnatcher and Lights Out both sound sinister and tough as ****.

as simple as it sounds "Iron" was a good one.

I liked Jake [Bronx Bull] Lamotta
Lennox [the Lion] Lewis - Kind of adds to the whole English royalty thing
Jean [The Marksman]Marc Mormeck

Funny
Oleg [The Big O] Maskaev
David [Tuaman] Tua

Hate Nikolay [Beast from the East] / [Russian Giant] Valuev

The Dark Destroyer.

Alejandro "Payasito" Hernandez.

That means "Little Clown".

Favorite....gees, so many to chose from; but if I had to pick one it would be Dempsey's..."The Manassa Mauler". Modern fav: "The Atlantic City Express"....what a waste of a good nick name. :rolleyes:

Worst...without a doubt..."The Boxing Banker".

Calvin Brock's a good fighter; but he coulda done better than that! I mean Calvin "Rock-n-Sock" Brock", "Rockin'" Calvin Brock, Calvin "Don't Touch My C*#!?" Brock, etc.

THE POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLES; but he chose "The Boxing Banker".

:rolleyes:

"Suck My" Dick Tiger

One of my favourites is Hector "Macho" Camacho.

Best Ever...."The Count of Monte' Fisto"....Apollo Creed. :D

I always thought Dr. Iron Fist was the dumbest nickname ever.

favortie nickname is pacman and the worst i ever heard was king dingaling

Mike "The Bodysnatcher" McCallum

Even sayin it puts the ****s up me!

ricky "the hitman" hatton is awsome

i also like pacman pacquoia and iron mike tyson.

Worst is zab "super" judah. how original is that. gay if u ask me. good fighter, boring nickname. certainly not the worst though

What about Barry McGuigan...."The Clones Cyclone"...that was pretty cool.

I always liked "The Brown Bomber" and "Smokin"

I always liked "The Brown Bomber" and "Smokin"

the Louisville Lip and Gaseous Cassius were pretty funny.

Ramazan "RazzaMatazz" Palyani

Lew "The Sweetheart Swatter" Jenkins A.K.A. "The Living Death"

Martin "Too Much" Power

Jozeph "The Hangman" Nagy

Sergio "El Maestrito" Blanco That means "Little Teacher"

Some of these names are cool, especially Lew Jenkins

Owen "What The Heck" Beck sucks willy.

nicks' i don't really find appealing:

- owen "what the heck" beck. where did this nick come from? any clues?

- "the golden boy" oscar de la hoya. sounds like it should be the nickname of a junior amateur boxer.

- andre "s.o.g." ward. the s.o.g. i believe stands for "son of god". his old one sucked as well.

- ricky "hitman" hatton. it has a nice ring to it, but there can be only one. and that one is now 46 years old.

- o'niel "supernova" bell. just doesn't sound right.

- samuel peter "the nigerian nightmare". oh they must have put a lot of thought into this one.

nicks' i like:

- thomas "hitman" hearns. the name fits him pretty well.

- james "bonecrusher" smith. that just sounds good! great nickname.

- mike "the body snatcher" mccallum. sounds kinda scarry, doesn't it? it's one of those nicknames that you don't forget.

- "iron" mike tyson. has a little ring to it, and added to his early reputation as a beast, fits him pretty well.

- vinny "the pazmanian devil" pazienza. kind of a funny nickname, but i like it.

- henry "homicide" armstrong. that's one badass name.

- vitali "dr ironfist" klitschko. not necessarily one of the better nicknames, but it sounds like he's a superhero from a comic book. so it's alright in my book.

- lew "the living death" jenkins. not super creative, nor does it have a ring to it, but it just sounds like it'd be a great movie.

- "marvelous" marvin hagler. yes, he was marvelous.

I was just about to say Marvelous, that was a great nickname.
Give em Hell was also good before Bell changed it.
I agree with Run when he said the real deal. That is a great ****ing nickname.
Im also torn with Shark Attack. I cant decide if its cool or just retarted. It does flow nice with his name though, which i would think would be nearly impossible.

"Chop Chop" is pretty weak

Mike Tyson's nickname is "Iron" but I like his other one " The Baddest Man on the Planet"


worst is gotta be John "the quiet man" Ruiz

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, Nate "The Galaxxy Warrior" Campbell. Worst.Nickname.Ever.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, Nate "The Galaxxy Warrior" Campbell. Worst.Nickname.Ever.
I thought his nickname was Nate " I give u a free shot..zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzz what happened?" Campbell

defintly "THE BADDEST MAN ON THE PLANET, IRON" MIKE TYSON

Donald "perfect record" Hoskins 1-0
