BQ: It's been bugging me for weeks now, I am sure someone other than Toney also had the tag 'lights out'. Who was/is it or am I wrong?

James 'Bonecrusher' Smith

'Marvellous' Marvin Hagler

Larry 'The Eastern Assassin' Holmes

John 'The Beast' Mugabi

** Wasn't there a guy in a recent 'Prizefighter' tournament called 'Lights Out' something or other?? I could be wrong, but the nickname rings a bell with me too... (Could have been Toney himself??) **

My personal favorites are:

Jimmy "The Mighty Atom" Wilde - never has an alias suited anyone better

Iran "The Blade" Barkley- Not the greatest fighter but that nickname hits the ear just right

Henry Armstrong AKA "Homicide Hank"- need i say more

"The Ghetto Wizard" Benny Leonard - sounds good to me

off topic- here are some racist nicknames...

Jimmy "The Jew Killer" McLarnin

Sam Langford Aka "The Boston Tar Baby"

here's some funny ones................

Adam "The swamp donkey" Richards

Carmen "The Upstate Onion Farmer" Basilio

funny stuff lol

Michael 'second to' Nunn

'Precious' McKenzie.

Michael " Second To" Nunn.

Abner "El 7 Mares" Mares

Floyd "KFC" Mayweather.
