    Does Sweet Pea qualify? Not often you hear anyone call him Pernell.

    Sugar Ray Seales, by far the worst of the Sugars but still an Oylimpic gold medalist and held a young Hagler to a draw before being brutally KO'd years later. I think im right in saying he was the only one given the name by the original Sugar
