Michael "Second To" Nunn was always one of my favorites even when I heard it as a kid. In fact that was the reason behind the 2to0 in my old user name.
"Sweet Pea" was memorable if nothing else, I always liked it but Pernell is my favorite fighter of all time.
Same with "Winky"

I don't consider Hatton the hitman so I would not even associate the two
...plus as much of a Tommy fan I am there have been much better names...
The Bodysnatcher is one I always found to be a great one...
What was that one guy's name?
Martin "immaculate" conception? tickles me that one, dont know if it reals or not though.
Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini
Iron Mike....
I like the "chin checker" one also. It reminds me of a video game name....
I was watching some fights down in Tijuana, Mexico. And I just laughed out loud when I heard the announcer go something like "Armandoooooo 'El Tyson' Gonzaleeeeeeez" I forgot the name of the boxer but I remember "El Tyson" was his nickname. I just found it funny;D.
"Iron" Mike Tyson
Described him to a tee when he was young
Forgot the guys real name, but his nickname was "Swamp Donkey" wtf that means I have no clue....Evander "Real Deal" Holyfield. James "Bonecrusher" Smith.
Jinx Spinks
Terrible Norris
Simply the best Eubanks
A few I have heard on here that I liked...Quote:

That would be Roberto Duran of course.
Yeah - 'Hands of Stone' is brilliant.
So is 'The Hit Man' (the real one, not Ricky), and 'Sugar' (the real one, not Ray leonard)
I also like 'The Blade', the 'Manassa Mauler', 'Kid' ...... boxing has the best nicknames ever.
On a funnier note, 'the Pink Panther', 'White Tyson', 'Six Heads' are funny.
'Big Daddy' always made me think about a jovial overweight British wrestler called Shirley!!
Not for a real fighter but I loved all of Apollo Creed's nicknames.
"The King of Sting"
"The Master of Distaster"
...there is another one but it escapes me at the minute. If someone can help me out post it...
joe no shoes morrales ;)
I heard someone call Vitali, Quitali once i thought that was pretty funny ;D
