    I’m a fan of Keyshawn Davis, but the “business man”, has got to be one of the worst most generic nicknames. Reminds me of those preset nicknames when you created a character in smackdown vs raw games.

    Lion lewis sucked
    Desert storm or son of god are cringe
    Irish .... sucks
    Initials like A.J.
    Or inappropriate names for fighters like magic man malignaggi, hitnan hatton or cobra froch.

    Or names where they try in to something historing but it doesnt fit: great alexander or king khan.

    The Bronze Bomber is pretty bad. Is he proud of winning bronze, finishing third?

    I certainly concur on the Irish nickname, as so often their only connection with the Emerald Isle is along the lines of, their great great great grandfather left those shores to live in the USA in 1860.
