Riddles part 3

[Spicoli]

Try this one.

I started my career winning half of my first six paid fights. My nickname I adopted some would debate due to my style , I had a patchy period but then reached good international levels. I failed in two world title fights. In these title shots I should have shown a bit of the nickname of the city im from and maybe I would have won.
I finally won a World title by showing some animal cruelty in controversial circumstances.
I retired at 38 after more than 10 title defences one of which was a controversial draw.
I fought in three divisions during my long career.

Who am I.

Tough one is this my friend. Almost thought it was Armstrong but Baby and Casanova were not paper champions and he defended his 147 19 times. Another hint if you will.

Im a fighter from the modern era
I am far from an all time great

Stab in the dark here bud...Johnny Nelson ?

Cool bud. The patchy start, wins and losses building to three title tries so started thinking double digit losses. Also figured he was based in UK and you indicated modern. 'Animal cruelty and controversy', iffy tko of 'the Cat' Thompson and was big help .
