    Which boxer has the worst nickname?

    Inspired by the thread about boxers with the best nicknames, which boxers do you think have the worst nicknames.

    I've always hated Devon Alexander "the great." He's the only one I can think of where the nickname is at the end of his real name.

    Also Anthony "the man" Mundine. I haven't watched a fight of his in a while so idk if he still goes by this but I remember hearing it and thinking, my god can you get more unoriginal.

    What are some others?

    Danny swift garcia kind of bothers me because we've seen now that he clearly isn't that fast.

    Andre ward's son of god is a bit odd just because he fights a little dirty at times. Not how you would expect a holy man to fight lol.

    Bradley's desert storm one is more confusing. The only thing I can think of is that he weathers the storm. He hardly causes storms.

    I like Lara a lot but his American dream nickname is funny considering a lot of the American media dislikes him because of his style.

      Bermaine "B. Ware" Stiverne is a pretty half assed nickname

      The best nickname is definitely Dr. Steelhammer, Bodysnatcher was good too

        I think Bradley's nickname is "desert storm" becaue he grew up in the inland desert part of southern California

          Never liked Bradley's either. I get that it's bc he's from the desert and all. It would have been cool had he fought in desert storm but as it stands now its also one of my least favorite

              "The American Dream" Lara is ****ing awful.

              "Mandingo Warrior" Kirkland is just embarrassing.

                Any fighter who calls himself King, it is totally overused.

                Pacman is cliche

                Tyson 2 Fast Fury: It doesn't fit him because he is too slow

                    Jarrod "Left Jab" Fletcher

                    1. It's a horrible name. Left Jab? At least have a creative name for it. Ike Quartey's jab was a Bazooka. That's a good nickname.

                    2. His jab isn't good enough to use it as his nickname. It's like they just used whatever punch he uses most.
