    This is the guy that Juan Francisco Estrada will be fighting next on August. I have no idea who this guy is but his nickname really is something. The guy also turned pro at the age of 30.

    I freaking love The Explosive Thin Man.

    Bodysnatcher is also great. And I've really warmed to Galaxy Warrior in recent years.

    Owen “What the Heck” Beck has to rank near the top (or bottom) for me.
    Calvin “the Boxing Banker” is another one that doesn’t inspire dread, either.

    Why not just go for Calvin 'The Rock' Brock? Sounds much better.

    It’s going to take something extraordinary bad to be worse than Andre ‘Son Of God’ Ward, who was also formally known as Andre ‘All Terrain Fighter’ Ward.

    S.O.G. was catchy and you got that he was religious. OK. Not a great nickname but it is what it is.
    But Mr. Stop Running? Wtf is that?
