Best Boxing Nicknames

Anthony "Sugar Ray Clay Jones Jr" Small Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android

Juan 'hispanic causing panic' lazcano

Sam "The Egg Beater" Eggington

The "Babyface Assassin" Barrera

Buff Bagwell

Hekkie "The Hexecutioner" Budler. There was a South African Welterwight whose nickname is Homicide. He sucked, and only 2 of his fights have been televised, but still, Homicide. But if you want dope nicknames, look no further than South African football (soccer). Some of the nicknames are pure class.

"Touch of Sleep" is a great nickname. Elegant, subtle, yet hints at there being dynamite in his hands. Beautiful.

Darnell "Ding-A-Ling Man" Wilson

Lewis was not the first (original) six-heads ... ... I trained with a guy at King's Gym in Oakland named "six heads" ... ... back in the late 1980s ... ... but I can't remember his name ... ... (it'll come to me though) ...

Alex "The Destroyer" Stewart. Pretty good heavyweight, great nickname.

"Cobra" Froch "Hitman" Hearns "Dr Steelhammer" (translates weird but that's part of the charm) "Smokin" Joe "El Terrible"
