    I always liked Juan "The Hispanic causing panic" Lazcano - very original

    also

    Barry Funches was known as the 'Fighting Postman' but more than one publication referred to him as Barry "Bunches of Punches" Funches, which always made me laugh.

    Shout out to Juan Lazcano! I remember he was the runner up for Mario Martinez on a card in New Mexico...if im not mistaken it was his debut.

    Masahiko Harada, better known as Fighting Harada. It's just that it's not his nickname, but a pseudonym.
