    I liked that one because it trolled so well. Generated a ton of butthurt.

    Trolling is ****in stupid and nothing to be proud of. And it's just a cringeworthy nickname, regardless of whether one likes Ward.

    Not really. You just assume everyone who hates the name is butthurt. That's silly. It's just a lame nickname. If Gennady had that nickname I'd laugh at that as well.

    Speaking of Russians. For the life of me, with all the Russian fighters, why hasn't there been the Russian concussion. Anyway, I always liked the dark destroyer, Nigel Benn.

    I believe Ruslan Chagaev used to call himself White Tyson? Even though they are nothing alike in stature, style etc

    Always liked the Bronx Bull

    Least favourite : Hi-Tec , love Loma but that name is hilariously bad
