Did I see right?
At UFC 60 Melvin Guillard fought some one called Rick "The Flying Squirrel" Davis????
Gents, I think we have a winner!

I can't believe I forgot about two of my favorites.
Dean "The Boogeyman" Lister
Alessio "Legionarius" Sakara
Sakara's tatoo's are amazing. Also really cool to know that he actually can trace his family's lineage back to find out that his ancestors were Legionaires.
(sorry I'm a big geek when it comes to Roman history type stuff)

"Iceman" has to be the best. Chucks wide open, gazing eyes make him look like he is on ice for sure.
Another great one is "Cat Smasher" based on originality.
"The Natural" is always great, unless you have stolen it...
And of course, you have to leave out "Amercian Psycho" and "Strange Brew" based on, uh, stupidity.

In my opinion, a lot of these nicknames sound as if the fighter gave it to himself, simply because we seem to many of the "popular" nicknames and their variations, i.e. anything with Assassin. I personally like nicknames that don't serve as anything real intimidating, as if they were real nicknames. Therefore, I like Gumby, Twinkletoes, and Quick. I also like nicknames that roll ahead of the name, like Hollywood Dan Henderson (a great, if obvious, allusion to the former Dallas Cowboy), Handsome Matt Wiman, and, though it's not MMA, Marvelous Marvin Hagler.

I always liked
"the axe murderer" for Wanderlei Silva because it really fit his crazy ass...
