What are the Worst Nicknames In MMA?

[Alexander]

I left it for you. Emelianenko, Fedor...

I appreciate it. What about Vitor "The Brazilian Thunderfist" Belfort. Did I make that up? I think that was an early nickname of his. If that guy could ever get his head on straight he could still be the man, what is he 28, 29?

Larry "Thunderfoot" Cureton

Vitor "Shaolin" Ribiero

Paul "Pain" Peters

He popped up when he was a teenager, so he can't be older than 30.

Who do you think has the best intro music?

For me it is oldschool Ice Cold Igor.

Another OT observation: I saw Erikson vs. Skelton from Pride 17 the other day and Tom chokes him out by gripping his throat and squeezing. Is this legal now? One could use it in the crucifix position if so.

Pretty sure that is not legal.

I personally like Fedor's entrance to Era or Akihiro Gono's for shear hilarity. Genki Sudo also has some great entrances.

 

[Alexander]

Igor's intro music was cool as hell. Fedor's is definitely my favorite. Aleks' was good too, it was Era also, forgot the name. Gotta give "country boy can survive" a nod, Hughes of course. Saku's, when he fought Randleman and it started off with the Mario bros theme, that was awesome.

 

[jas123]

The emelianenko's have great intro music. I've definitely listened to Fedor's intro song while doing some heavy sets working out. I hate country so I don't really dig Hughes' but it is fitting.

Gono's intro is cool for a while but then it gets old. Apollo Creed's etrance is pretty dope too.

Good call, Apollo's entrance was unreal. RIP James Brown. I enjoyed Wand coming out to Sandstorm by Darude, and I normally hate techno. I like Lunatic Fringe by Red Rider, Cote has used that for his intro.

 

[AuggieC]

wow i like that one thats great! thumbs way up for that one

 

[sp33dkillz]

I've always hoped that Diego Sanchez would change his nickname from "Nightmare" to "Dirty".

 

[SteelEntity]

"The Carpenter" Clay Guida - tops my list.

 

[CNorris]

Joe "J-Lau" Luazon is ****ing terrible. Its not funny even the first time.

 

[Alexander]

Good call, doesn't get much gayer than J-lau!

 

[jas123]

I forgot if someone mentioned this, but Alexander "the diet butcher" Otsuka

 

[Rodja]

I forgot if someone mentioned this, but Alexander "the diet butcher" Otska

I don't know how I forgot Otsuka. Babalu literally means "bubble gum."

 

[Alexander]

That's a good one. I always liked Otsuka's intro song.

 

[jas123]

Ricco Suave lost to Ben Rothwell tonight. He actually looked to be in much better shape at 252.5.

 

[Beowulf]

Don't know if it's been mentioned, but the best nickname is easily Marcus "The Irish Hand Grenade" Davis.

 

[CNorris]

WTF, we are talking about the worst names in MMA. Not the best!
That one is classic lol.

Edit: Oops, I didn't read your post properly. Thats what I get for posting at 2AM after drinking all night :drunk:

 

[Rogue Drone]

That's what happens when a original and quaint username like CNorris points fingers at others on their choice of Nicks. :think:

It's Allright, C, you have been a good contributor of late, compared to that Tard Turd Auggie, you look like a congenial Genius.

 

[somewhatgifted]

I really dont like Mirko's entry music but you say nothing bc its "cro crop" and he'll do wtf he wants, but coming off two losses i feel safe saying that trashy crap sucks.

 

[Nitrox]

I always thought Muscle Shark was pretty hilarious.

Soon to be renamed the 'Juicer Shark'

Most of the time I'm sure the guys are guilty and were just dumb and got caught. In this case, I'm almost inclined to believe Sherk though. He just seems like the type of guy who really cares about every tiny thing that goes into his body and would not want to put steroids into it. Maybe I am just naive or it's wishful thinking but I guess we will find out at his appeal.

I think when you saw how hard he worked in the All Access show it is hard not to admire the guy and hence you don't want him to be guilty. It's also a show that can be edited to manipulate one's perception of him. He has a density to his physique that makes it hard to believe that he hasn't done something in the past. I like the guy a lot, though, for his hard work regardless of his guilt.

 

[sp33dkillz]

Sherk is one of my favorite fighters, but I would really be supprised if he didn't run some sort of aas. That was the first thing i thought when i saw his huge ass basket of supps... lol. I do hope he is cleared and is more cautious next time.

 

[Lightning]

"Handsome" Matt Wiman irritates me

 

[guyrelax]

yeah

josh 'the people's champion' burkman

and

tim 'the maine-iac' silvia


I know silvia's was already said, but I hate him so much I thought I'd repeat it.

 

[Beowulf]

Haha, yeah, what is Burkman the champion of????

 

[Martelle]

Stiebling was also called "The fighting Brad Pitt", the japanese loved that guy. I think "The Math Librarian" is worse, doesn't make any type of sense.

LOL, it's an honour to see myself come up in this thread! I've now made ( by my own count ) 5 such internet lists of worst nicknames!!

I'm "The Math Librarian" because, well, that was my job before MMA. I was the Math Librarian at the Queen's University Math Library. In a sport full of wannabe tough guy nicknames, I thought it'd be fun to stand out with a less assuming moniker. Seems to be getting the attention that I hoped it would.

Cheers guys!

Pretty amazing coincidence that you found this thread on this board. You're famous man, you've hit the big time being mentioned on a monster board like this. Do you still train/fight or is it back to the Math Library for you?

 

[Martelle]

Thanks bro, I still train and compete. I have a school too, www.grizzlygym.com . And I have to 'fess up - I found this thread when I Googled myself

All my best guys!

Mike

Right on. I figured that may have been the case, but I googled you and when this thread didn't come up within the first 2 pages my lazy ass gave up. I'll have to check out your site, when's your next fight?

 

[jas123]

That is funny, Mike. Welcome aboard and I'd be curious to know when your next fight is too.

 

[Martelle]

Thanks guys! I actually leave tomorrow for a fight in Tokyo on Sunday! Wish me luck, and thanks again for the mention. I love strength training too, so it's cool for me to see myself mentioned on Anabolicminds.com! Say, if anybody wanted to send me a T-Shirt sometime, I'd be happy to wear it to my next show

 

[brass monkey]

Good luck in your fight, keep us posted

 

[jas123]

Nice, Mike. Getting to see the world while doing what you love. Let us know what happens.

 

[jas123]

Since this is the OT thread, let's use MMAth to come up with the most ridiculous conclusions possible.

1. Shungo Oyama > UFC LHW champ Rampage
Oyama > Renzo > F. Shamrock > Tito > Wandy > Rampage

2. Justin Eilers > Fedor
Eilers > Mike Kyle > TK > Fedor

 

[CNorris]

What's Lesnars nick name going to be?

Brock "Swock" Lesnar.

Swock is referring to the tattoo on his chest. Sword + C*ck = Swock.

Well done, Rogue. I don't think that decision sits well with Rodja.

 

[Alexander]

Let's stop with the long winded sh8t that ends with TK>Fedor, we all know Fedor didn't lose to TK.

 

[Alexander]

Dennis Hallman>Shogun

Hallman>Hughes>Royce>Ken Shamrock>Severn>Forrest>Shogun

 

[jas123]

Here's a ricockulous one : Forrest > Shogun ohh.:sad:

Sorry Alex. It's 1-1 between the two and with TK retired, I guess we'll never know who's the better fighter. :twisted:

Hey guys!

Just since some of you asked, I did indeed win my recent fight in Tokyo via 2nd round submission! The Math Librarian moves to 2-1, baby!!

Thanks for your support,

Mike

 

[jas123]

:head: Nice work, Mike.

 

[brass monkey]

Great job Mike, Just wondering is there anywhere we can check the fight out. BTW your school looks topnotch. Keep throwing down and congratulations :cheers:
