    Leon “Night Life” McDonald was a journeyman light heavyweight out of Florida with about a .500 record who took on a lot of top guys.

    I’m sure his nickname reflected his favoring partying over training.

    I fought on a card with ButterBean, and they announced a guy as "The Belly".
    I think he got KTFO doe.

    Not going to go through all seven pages, but have we somehow missed Jerry “Wimpy” Halstead?

    And what about Sean O’Grady, the Bubblegum Kid?

    Tom "The Lady Tapper" Spring.

    The name was supposed to suggest that he hit like a girl; not that he was romantically successful.
