    They don't have to be great fighters (although some of them certainly are), but which fighters have the most evocative, or best-sounding names in history? It can a fighter's actual name, or if you desire, a combination of nicksname and given name.

    Three picks of mine to start:

    Sugar Baby Rojas
    Merciless Ray Mercer
    Terrible Terry Norris.

    Micheal 'Second to some, but once thirty five and' Nunn
