    Humberto "La Chiquita" Gonzalez. FYI, Chiquita translates into little girl.

    Andre "The All Terrain Fighter" Ward.

    Owen "What the Heck" Beck.

    Steve "Two Pound" Forbes.

    I had a boxing trainer, Joe Byrd, the father of Chris Bryd, whose name was "Toy Block" The newspapers gave him that name, although I never figured that one out.
    Steve Forbes nickname is quite appropriate though, it's because he was a prematured baby and he was weighting 2 pounds when he's born, he also said in an interview that he didn't like that nickname but that it has been given to him by some friends for a long time.

    Thus said, I accidentally marked the thread as inappropriate, Sorry for that SADDO.

    John "the quiet man" Ruiz. He's not fuckin' quiet, his mouth runs like a train and he's always jabbing jabbing and grabbing.

    Fres "The Big O" Osquendo.... the Big O..... well...

    Eric "Lucky luke" Lucas.... funniest thing is; there was a contest to find him a nickname and this is what the winner came in with.... it's ludicrous.

    Don't you think it's a little ironic that you marked the inappropriate nickname's thread as inappropriate.

    Btw, I thought that Ruiz's nickname pertained to his *yawn* jab and clinch style. Quiet and uneventful? Although I'd think that John "Shut Eye" Ruiz would have fit.
    If you hear a voice within you saying that I am not a painter, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.

    That is a nice irony indeed hehe. As for Ruiz, he should have been called "Jab and Grab", I stated it before and will again, this is the most appropriate I think but I disgress with you, his mouth runs way too much for a quiet guy, even Stoney Stone in his corner talked too much

    Wouldn't we all wish Ruiz would quiet down and either learn to box or retire.

    Except maybe for a madman, we do all wish... then we could rename him perhaps as well "the man to be quiet soon"

    Jermaine Taylor was the first person that popped into my head when I saw this thread title. Should be Jermaine "Out of Gas" Taylor.

    There is a british boxer called Anthony Small. Anyway this guy calls himself "Sugar Ray Clay Jones Junior". So 4 all time greats in that name and though not bad he certainly has not and never will live upto any of these fighters.

    Scott Pemberton always makes me laugh... His alias doesn't mean what you think it would.

    "The Sandman"... You figure it's cuz he puts people to sleep? You'd be wrong. This douche got his name cuz of how sandy he'd get riding his dirt bike

    Herol "Bomber" Graham couldn't be further from the truth. Mind you though that was a smart trick, because in his early career. It used to fool opponents into thinking he was a banger. Then when they get in the ring they were completely thrown off.

    Well you have to admit that Jermain Taylor at least has bad intentions for 80% of the fight.

    How about Bernard "the Exectioner" Hopkins. I don't think that he really executes. The only people he puts to sleep are the fans. He gets all the high profile fights and just escapes with a win/loss. Is the last person he KOed DLH?

    Carl Froch should be "the Mule" rather than "the Cobra". I recall cobras being fast.
