    Brian Magee was born Timothy Rogers but thought he would get more Irish support if he was called magee and was trying to move away from living in Kuala Lumpor till he was 6. The brian bit was just a personal preference

    Riddick Bowe was originally born Riddickulous Bowstring by his uncaring father who wished to make a mockery of the poor lad to spite future trainer Eduardo Fuccinni (whom he had caught stealing one of his pumpkin pies one hot summer afternoon in Catskills, and whom the prescient father had some advanced knowledge would one day come to train the young Riddickulous). Or so I heard. It could all be made up for all I know.

    Obviously it isn't.

    Tyson shouldn't even be his surname. It should be Smith or Kirkpatrick.

    And Eubank was born Eubanks.

    Saul Alvavez has dropped his real last name, Barragan, to appeal to the Mexicans more. Barragan sounds quite Irish anyway, but according to The Ring it's how the Mexicans spelt Berrigen, an Irish name, which goes some way to explaining his looks.
