    64/100. Most of the old ones tripped me up. What is Tarver's? I always thought he was the Magic Man

    :yep That's why I never forget his nickname. It's one of the goofiest nicknames I've ever heard along with "The Dingle-Ling-Man." :lol:

    I'm glad they never adotped Antonio Tarver's one time self appointed moniker "legend killer". He got embarassed by B-Hop not very long afterwards so it never stuck and that's a good thing. LOL @ "Violent" Elmer Ray...imagine a boxer being violent, who'd a thought?

    I really like Manitos de Piedra(little hands of stone) for Michael Carbajal. I watched a vid of one of his fights on another thread and he really does fight like a little version of Roberto "Manos De Piedra" Duran.

    I like how it accepted "The Mighty Atom" for Jimmy Wilde. "The Ghost with a Hammer in his Hand" seems more memorable but I really like Mighty Atom for such a tiny but remarkable puncher
