That nickname would be banned today.

James 'Lights Out' Toney has always been a favourite of mine. Cold, to the point and memorable. Also liked 'Mantequilla' (Jose Napoles), the 'Camden Buzzsaw' (Dwight Muhammad Qawi), the 'Real Deal' (Evander Holyfield) and Nigel the 'Dark Destroyer' Benn.

And another few,

Friday "the 13th" ahunanya

Jermain "Bad Intentions" Taylor
Ike"Bazooka" Quartey
Donovan "Razor" Ruddock
James "Bonecrusher" Smith
Riddick "Big Daddy" Bowe

''The Black Assassin'' Stanley Ketchel
''Two Ton'' Tony Galento

I would have gone with Bonecrusher Smith as well.

Some daft ones.

Earnie "The Acorn" Shavers
Lew "The Sweet Swatter from Sweetwater" Jenkins
Jerry "Wimpy" Halstead

I know you guys HATE MMA but I thought I would throw this one as it is so bad - Alex "The Reidinator" Reid (Jordans ex).

Jimmy Wilde 'The Ghost With a Hammer in his hand'
Alexis Arguello 'Explosive Thin Man'
Mike 'The Bounty' Hunter
