          I said he popularized it. Up until angel garcia started calling fighters killers, no one was using that term at all in the boxing scene.

            I'm not in a boxing gym so i don't know if it's a common term in gyms but angel was the first doing it in interviews and now everyone is.

                  Mick called Clubber Lang a ‘killer’ in Rocky III. That was in 1982.

                  Term been around boxing (real and fictional) for a LONG time.
