    I watched some Mayorga fights today and can't get over how inappropriate "El Matador" is for Mayorga's style. What are some other nicknames that didn't fight their fighters at all?

    That's not a bad nickname at all. Neither is "Bobo Olson."

    What about the following:

    Lance 'Goofi' Whitaker (he even made it his legal name) :roll:
    John 'The Quiet Man' Ruiz
    Laila 'She Be Stingin' Ali (talk about riding coattails)
    Ike 'The President' Ibeabuchi
    Lennox 'The Lion' Lewis
    Juan 'El Pollo' Valenzuela
    Syd 'The Jewel' Vanderpool?
    '2 Pound' Steve Forbes (come on now...)

    darnell 'good news' jiles

    tyrese 'head honcho' hendrix

    Clifton Mitchell.....nah boring name lets call you 'paddy reilly'

    Marlon 'Magic Man' Starling
    Mark 'Too Sharp' Johnson
    O’Neill 'Give ‘em Hell' Bell
    Kevin 'Flushing Flash' Kelley
