Have any fighters with the same name ( or nick name ) ever fought?

Hawk vs Takamura

 

If not for Carl Frampton being scared of Rigo, we would have gotten El Chacal vs The Jackal.

 

Sefer Seferi vs Evander Holyfield would have been nice.

 

Must have happened with Latino fighters, how often do you see a Diaz, Garcia, Molina, Ramirez etc..

 

Sorry to bump an old topic (doing research for something similar and this popped up on google)
To add to the question though

SRR fought another Sugar... boiled his ass into caramel IIRC.

 

Must happen a lot with Korean fighters.

 

I was looking for examples and didn't stumble on any particularly quickly with Korean fighters

In Japan Yoshimitsu Yashiro defended a Japanese title twice against different Takashi Miura... In fact he went 1-1-1 against fighters called Takashi Miura, which I always find kinda interesting. Not quite the topic at hand by not far off

 

Oh, so I guess that exposes me as a liar doesnt it?

 

Just suggesting it's perhaps not as common as one would thing given the naming system in Korea. I think you're probably right in suggesting it HAPPENS but it doesn't seem to happen A LOT

 

Kim vs. Kim or Park vs. Park has to have taken place, at least in low-tier undercard bouts, countless times.
