    We’ve done fish and birds and colors and a bunch of other stuff.

    But boxing is a sport where one needs to be healthy, and sometimes that involves a trip to the drug store to pick up a cure for some illness or other.

    So let’s explore boxers who by their very names could be medications or medicinal products:

    Mike Tylenol

    Luisito Aspirinosa

    Ibuprofen Arrington

    Robitussin Duran

    Willie Pepto-Bismol

    Benadryl Brisco

    Panama Alka-Seltzer Brown

    Muhammad Advil

    Who else can we come up with?

    Willie Pepto-Bismol made me laugh.

    Unfortunately, I think this thread idea may have taken a turn for the worse - it’s become a bitter pill to swallow and it’s bad medicine. I have a gut feeling it’s on its last legs but I could be wrong - perhaps it’ll get a new lease of life? A thread on boxers who were venereal diseases, perhaps? If so, I’ve got one ready: S.T.D. Gordon.

    On the contrary, I went and got a second opinion and it seems this thread is recovering nicely. You seem to have a feverish wish to flat-line this thread, and, to be frank, it’s becoming a real headache. You need to check your pulse and take a chill pill and cough up some more medical boxing names rather than declare this exercise dead on arrival.
