    I really wish Floyd had stayed as "Pretty Boy" Floyd.

    "Money" Mayweather is just...gay.

    'Son of God' really puts me off aswell

    'Son of a Gun' would be awesome :thumbsup

    I imagine a fighter with his head down and eyes closed, swinging wildly at anyone in his way

    I like 'The Boxing Banker' for some reason. It sounds interesting

    Jeremy "Half man half amazing" Williams

    I always thought 'Touch of Sleep was a weird nick name even though DaVaryll Williamson had the power to put people to sleep.

    Never disliked a fighter because of his nick name.

    don't like Amir "King" Khan either

    Amir "Bankroll" Khan sounds much better

    My thoughts exactly. He got KO'd too, so maybe he was the collateral damage.

    i will become a fan to a fighter based on:

    1. fighting style
    2. attitude in the ring
    3. attitude outside the ring

    not his ****en nickname.

    Nickname hasn´t affected how I see a fighter, but there are some stupid nicknames around;

    Son of God is just ridiculous. This is still just a sport, not Holy War. Tasteless, idiotic nickname.

    Bonabarte drunken irish - this is one from toilet also

    Nonpareil - what´s this?

    Owen "What the Heck" Beck - might as well

    The Acorn

    Wimpy

    Lance 'Goofi' Whitaker

    Laila 'She Be Stingin' Ali

    Juan "El Pollo" Valenzuela

    Syd "The Jewel" Vanderpool

    Andrew "Boxing Andrew Maynard" Maynard

    Darnell "The Ding-a-Ling Man" Wilson

    Mitch "Hold my beer" Hicks
