I must admit that "The Hispanic Causing Panic" literally made me spit some beer out of my nose when I first heard it...kudos to the poster that mentioned that one!
I also loved "The Body Snatcher" as well, unique and really fit his style of fighting as well.

Oh crap, another post just reminded me of the funniest (and accurate) nickname for a fighter..."The South Pole" for Andrew Golotta...LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!
Can't believe I forgot about that one, it is by far the best one out there yet!

I always loved the simple nickname of the journeyman heavyweight from the 60s, George Scrapiron Johnson. Simple, and says what it need to say.
Funniest to me is the name of middleweight contender of the 70s, Elijah “tap tap” Makhathini, who owns victories over Emile Griffith and Curtis Cokes. Wander if Ray Mancini didn’t take his “boom boom” from him… They at the very least “taped taped” and “boomed boomed” almost in the same era.
