    Absolutely.

    And for the record, I think Sugar Shane gets too much crap for not being worthy of carrying the moniker. He carries himself with such class and has been such an important fighter during this era. I think he deserves to carry the name based on that, even if his accomplishments throughout his career don't do enough to warrant it.

    Are you joking...??

    People love Ray Leonard today, but at the time, lots of hard core boxing fans absolutely did not accept him being called "Sugar" Ray Leonard.

    Personally I think any top fighter would use the "Sugar" label as a nickname................ If it sounded right. But hell as much as I like Floyd, does "Sugar" Floyd Mayweather sound good?? No!

    It would have to be something like Sugar Sam Peter, maybe Sugar Wlad Kklitschko.. no just kidding. Can't be a heavyweight.

    Maybe...

    Sugar Som Sithchatchawal (short for Somsak)
    Sugar Poon Kratingaenggym (haha, poon)

    Or for the absolute worst sounding one I can think of:

    In the blue corner....

    SUGAR

    OSCAR

    DE

    LA

    HOYA!

    "Azucar" Sugar Shane Mosley even put "Azucar" on his trunks a couple of years ago. I guess Oscar told him to do that now that Shane is a Golden boy fighter.:yep
