    It is pretty bad. I think one of the reasons I could never muster up much of a damn about Brock was that nickname and the image it threw up. Boxing as a part-time job, or someone with all the flash and sizzle of a guy filling out an accountancy form...bad stuff.

    Yeah, it sucks.

    Vitali "Ironfist" Klitschko would be much better (he was called like that earlier on his career).

    Wlad "The Steelhammer" is much better.

    Nothing wrong with that nickname. It's better than being named after a ****ing videogame character who is named after a pizza.

    Doesn't he have a PHD though? I think it is a very unique nickname because how many other fighters have a doctorate?

    Ahh I forgot about him, finance guys don't usually get doctorates however, I dont think you even can get a doctorate in finance. They usually take the CPA exam and get their MBA i think.
