    I like “Iron” Mike Tyson. Most names that just go with a name or last name but have nothing to do with the fighter’s style or personality are **** IMO.

    from a slang point of view, in means more like Poultry, when referring to someone as poultry, not chicken as "coward".

    It also means Poultry. But when someone refers themselves as Pollo, they mean to refer themselves as Poultry, not chickeh as in "coward".

    Thomas "Don't Call Me Tommy" Perez, was a unique nickname.

    Perez was a good talented fighter I personally knew in the 1980's.
    He fought from Santa Ana, and Westminster, California.
    Perez mostly fought in Irvine, CA and at the Inglewood Forum in LA.
    He later became Sugar Ray Leanords' sparring partner.

    He had a brother named Cubanito Perez.

    Carl "The Truth" Williams is odd.

    Tony "TNT" Tubbs, and Tony "TNT" Tucker make me wonder, did one copy from the other?

    Rafael "Bazooka" Limon, and Wilfredo "Bazooka" Gomez.

    Both fought about the same years, makes me wonder, did one copy from the other?
