    Every time I hear that it makes me smile. Dan Henderson is awesome.

    The boxing moniker I like the most though is Steve Cunningham's. Even though it's just "U.S.S." it makes his last name sound like it's part of the nickname. "U.S.S. Cunningham" Like a Naval battleship or something.

        Well i feel we as fans need to be more creative and give our favorite fighters original monikers instead of taking from the pool of recycled monikers that have been used over and over throughout boxing history.

          I already did. I noticed people who like Margarito are starting to call him "Dr. Doom". I made it up for him. Like the comic book character, is where I got it from. Iron Chin and spells doom for his opponents.

              Well that doesnt count because it didnt exactly catch on to the point where he actually became tagged and introduced before fights as dr. doom.
