Nicknames no boxer would use today

Last time I remember someone with that name was Grady Brewer when he won The Contender series 2.

 

Oh okay, I get you now. I guess I just wasn't aware that "fireman" was that common a nickname.

 

I doubt anyone today would call himself "Babe" or "Honey".

 

true, though mind you, we get butchers all the way from William Pooleto Berridge today.

 

Solvent Honey?

The guy stopped too soon! He coulda been a contender!

 

I wasn't really thinking about Solvent Honey, but rather this world champion:

And of course with "babe" I was alluding to another world champ:

This name might work, assuming you don't lose your one and only fight:
