... Naming themselves. Others are named perfectly, like Pernell "Sweet Pea" Whitaker, and "Marvelous" Marvin Hagler. This is your chance to fix those who don't. Pick one boxer, help him fix his name.
Boxer: Ivan "Iron Boy" Calderon. Great little boxer. Dictates nearly everything in the ring. How about, Ivan "The Little General" Calderon, or for his fans in PR, Ivan "El Generalito" Calderon-- or just something more dignified. And while we are on PR fighters, someone do something for Tito, who was a monster in the ring, despite his nick name. |

I realize Lacy's torn rotator cuff has all but rendered his left hook ineffective, so this is probably a little unfair to him, but his nickname just doesn't suit him at all anymore. A more fitting nickname at the moment would be Jeff 'Clubbing Right Hand' Lacy.
Sam Peter stole 'The Nigerian Nightmare' from Christian Okoye. 'Sluggin' Sam Peter would have fit well. |
