Thomas "The Hitman" Hearns, also known as The Motor City Cobra.
Current examples:
"Pretty Boy Floyd" and "Money Mayweather" (the first was obviously better)
Chad "Awesome" Dawson and "Bad" Chad Dawson (I prefer the first -- it's kind of funny as a boxer nickname)
Actually he's got 3 nicknames. He is also known as "Asshole".Quote:
