    Trying to divert our attention from the converted pig pen down their in Aiken...... (Paul was a mud wrestler until the drought and they thought he was 4 foot 10 until then) They could try calling it the Piggly Wiggly but I think that's been taken.....

    I think when they fight out of a well known gym it is mentioned or if they have a well known trainer he is mentioned in the introductons.

    I agree, good idea.

    I swear it does get done for some fighters though, maybe I'm imagining things?

    In Thailand, a fighter's last name is the name of his Boxing Gym
