Fighters nicknames ! guess the boxer ?

[BattlingNelson]

Now that's Sweet.

Oh yeah and Billy Smith might have been the dirtiest boxer of all times, which correlates fine with what Kearns said, since he likely was DQ'ed the most and that in a time where few rules was enforced.

One low-level club fighter we had around here, oh, 15 years or so ago, was a policeman who boxed on the side who had a good nickname/gimmick.

He was nicknamed "The Law," and came out to the song, "I Fought the Law and the Law Won."

James Green is Hard Rock.

The Matchstick Man aka The Merthyr Matchstick (after his hometown in Wales) aka The Bionic Bantam was the late Johnny Owen, who tragically tied when he was knocked out by Lupe Pintor in a brutal and savage fight. RIP, Johnny.

You probably meant Hatcher for Mad Dog, but to me it's Edgar "Mad Dog" Ross, who was a junior middleweight contender in the late 70s/early 80s, as he's from my hometown.

Oh ****! Better memory than me! James Green! That's it. I've actually got a couple of his fights against some of the top guys of the 80/90s.

Couldnt remember if it was Jimmy Owens or Johnny. J. Owens anyway. Didn't realise he was called The Matchstick Man. I remember learning about him because of Samart Payakaroon, in a weird roundabout way though. Fenech fought Samart for his title, who won it off Pintor who was in lots of great fights that I ended up checking out. Already knew him from his great fight with Gomez of course. Tragic fight when I watched it and found out about what happened.
