    The most/least befitting nickname in boxing.

    Which one of these active boxers has the most befitting (relevant) nickname, and which one has the least (irrelevant)? Not what nickname a boxer deserves. Feel free to name a boxer that isn't on the list.

    King (Abraham)
    The Great (Alexander)
    Desert Storm (Bradley)
    Hayemaker (Haye)
    Executioner (Hopkins)
    King (Khan)
    Dr. Ironfist (V. Klitschko)
    Dr. Steelhammer (W Klitschko)
    Tijuana Tornado (Margarito)
    Maravilla (Martinez)
    Pretty Boy/Money (Mayweather)
    Sugar (Mosley)
    Vicious (Ortiz)
    Pac Man (Pacquiao)
    Punisher (Williams)

          add Andre "S.O.G" Ward... least befitting imo

          Bernard "the Executioner" Hopkins is best fit

                      Hopkins, Wlad, and Vitali all have really fitting nicknames.

                      Shane Mosley having the Sugar nickname is weird since he isn't anything like Robinson or Leonard, and Ortiz should have to earn the Vicious nickname back after the way he ran from Nate Campbell.

                              yeah I know what you're saying about Mosley, he's the least deserving since his boxing doesn't really involve the sweet science and consists mainly of brawling..
