    He's calls himself that as they were his 4 favourite fighters growing up thus his inspiration to start boxing. He's not being cocky or anything when he says that.

    That's true. When he first went into Fitzroy Lodge, like many of us who go in first time, he got little help, so he learnt to box, by watching old fights of Leonard, Robinson, Ali & RJJ. He uses the nickname as a way of honouring what he learnt off them. But given the way Anthony is, people do take it as arrogance, which in this case it isn't
