• jeff "left hook" lacy was pretty dope.
• "lights out" is one of my faves
• "brown bomber" is slick... and kinda racist. HAHA
• "pretty boy" floyd... always amused me
• "thunder" gatti... very fitting.
• "smokin" joe frazier.... classic
• "golden boy".... you guys CANT hate on that.
• "Dr. Steelhammer" & "Dr. Ironfist".... matching names, nice.
Up there with the worst must be Juan 'The Hispanic causing Panic' Lazcano. I would have hit the idiot who suggested that name to me! One of the best nicknames has got to be Carl 'The Truth' Williams' even thoughe couldn't live up to it. Both Tomm Hearns and Aaron Pryyor lived up to their nicknames though.
I'm pretty sure that for at least one fight Lazcano changed it to "the chosen Juan" which I thought was much better lol
And I always liked the sound of "the real deal Holyfield"
Roberto "hands of stone" Durran
"Smoking" Joe Frazier
Worst has to be David "Tuaman" Tua
Honorary mention goes to the "Italian Stallion"
Am I the only one who thinks that PacMan is actually pretty good. I quite like "Katsidis, The Great" and "David Hayemaker Haye". Now if you want bad nicknames, look no further than Snooker Players...

The cheesiest and worst:
Ruslan "White Tyson" Chagaev - First of all his style is nothing like Mike Tyson's. Secondly, why would joo want your knickname to be that of another boxer....
That's why he's the best coz he's second to none.
Wonder how he's doin in prison. Effin' waste Nunn is.
write him a letter
i can almost guarantee that he will read it.
can't get better than #tyson fury" and he deserves a couple of bonus points for it being his real name.
on a similar note, "marvelous" marvin hagler is pretty cool and again bonus points in order for having his name changed to that by deed poll!
