** 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.
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?
