    I've noticed that a lot of fighters share nicknames or have nicknames that are quite similar. It got me to thinking about who the better fighter was between them and whoever they share a nickname with. So here's a few group of fighters who hare the same or similar nicknames. Who do you guys think is the better fighter from each group.

    "Sugar" Ray Robinson
    "Sugar" Ray Leonard
    "Sugar" Shane Mosley

    Antonio "Magic Man" Tarver
    "The Magic Man" Paulie Malignaggi

    "Marvelous" Marvin Hagler
    Sergio "Maravilla" Martinez

    Kelly "The Ghost" Pavlik
    Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero

    "Terrible" Terry Norris
    "El Terrible" Erik Morales

    Amir "King" Khan
    "King" Arthur Abraham
    "Prince" Naseem Hamed

    Glenn "The Road Warrior" Johnson
    Mikel "The Viking Warrior" Kessler

    "Bad" Chad Dawson
    Jermain "Bad Intentions" Taylor

    Feel free to add some that I missed.
