    Default Boxing's Best names

    Done before I know, but I think you will struggle to top the Zimbabwean Heavyweights of the 70s/80s:

    Jukebox Timebomb

    Captain Cleopas Marvel

    Hitler The Killer

    Looks like Captains Marvel opponent George Foreman fought some weird names too.

    Black Tiger, Kid Power, Proud Killamanjaro and Hisman Flash Chisango all seem like they are straight out of a comic book.

    Archie Moore fought against some bizarre names himself.

    Piano Mover Jones
    The Pocahontas Kid,
    Sammy Slaughter
    Dusty Wilkerson
    Honeyboy Jones,
    Shorty Hogue (followed by...)
    Big Boy Hogue (brothers perhaps?)
