    If not for the "My countries champ" hint, I would have guessed... Lew Tendler.
    But I take it, our man isn't from the US?

    With wins over 7 different world champions, from 7 different divisions,
    Panamanian Davey Abad was certainly anything but a bad fighter!

    As you're saying he's the opposite of the sound of his last name as opposed to the spelling, I'll have a guess at:
