    yeah it is
    "im laak a coobra. im coiled oop then ah straike my opponents with ma speed"

    i can see why he has the nickname, he does hunch into himself then come flying out with a lead right hand, he just doesnt have the speed to justify it. also when he comes out to the ring with his hood on, he looks like voldemort with his features-his pale skin, sunken eyes and pointy nose. and voldemort was part snake or some ****.

    dont get me wrong, im a big carl froch fan

    yeah, they are
    Prince Chadwick
    Sir Chancellor
    and Royal Tiger Dawson

    how ghetto-fabulous. :patsch

    **** like that makes me sad for chad, for many reasons that i wont get into as it becomes a debate in social anthropology and upbringing and culture and influence etc. he is trying to give them regal names

    Tarver's nickname presumely comes from the fact he's from Orlando, which is the location of the basketball franchise the Orlando Magic.

    He did represent Tipperary though in hurling at underage level.

    'Magic' Matthew Hatton, Magic is the last thing I would associate with him.

    On that note anything like Little Tyson or White Tyson is terrible.

    mate. do you mean "the hispanic causing panic" JUAN lazcano...?
    ive no idea who this "the chosen" is...

    anyway, the thread is about nicknames that fighters failed to live up to...not favourites
