    Agreed. The "Money" thing is stupid. PBF was awesome considering he does look like a prettyboy

    There was a local fighter from Chicago who called himself "Windy City Warrior".

    That is unbeatable.

    If you know the history of the name 'Pretty Boy Floyd' then it was actually a brilliant and clever nickname.

    Chuck "The Bayonne Bleeder" Wepner is the one I like for comic relief. At least he was honest.

    That was way back in the 20's and 30's when John Dillinger, Alvin Carpas, Ma Barker and her sons were all robbing banks left and right across the country.
