I will let you into a little secret.....it's only a nickname!

Stevenson is good. He is fast, tricky, but at the end of the day is a human being. In boxing terms he is quite old too. Superman was of course an alien with super powers and ultimately a boxer with such a nickname is never going to quite live up the full blown majesty of arguably the finest comic book hero.

We cannot just give ourselves a nickname and become the fantasy. I myself don't wear dresses or have magic powers. It is a let down, I know. Boxers are only human and they typically have flaws and get old. When I was younger I expected Calzaghe to come out of his corner with green scales and smoke blazing out of his nostrils. He was a fine fighter and dazzled, but he could never quite escape reality with the powers of Merlin granted by a nickname.
