Is Raquel Penningtons "Rocky" nickname the most disgraceful since Sam Stout?

[StewDogg11]

Rocky didnt exist before the Rocky movies.

Obviously named after Rocky Marciano and based off of Chuck Wepner and Joe Frazier.

 

[WalterSobchak]

Terrible. She is terrible.

Not as disgraceful as this post.

Stout Hands of Marshmellow nicknamed himself Hands of Stone off the legendary Roberto Duran.

Rocky isnt real but hes still an iconic figure that stood for something with worldwide recognition. Raquel is not good and i dont think shes ever knocked anyone out or had a comeback arc

Rocky Marciano?

 

[ExitLUPin]

Rocky Marciano?

I meant the Stallone character. I doubt a WMMA fighter would nickname themselves over Marciano

Frank "Twinkle Toes" Trigg ...he was not twinkly at all, silly nickname

also ...
Dan "The Police Officer" Copp and Ron "H2O" Waterman

He used to,paint his toe nails

 

[Blayt7hh]

What I don’t get is why they announce it as a fighter name. Like, you don’t say “William ‘Bill’ Smith” since it’s short hand. You either say William or Bill smith.

Hector Lombard: Why I Changed my Nickname to ‘Showeather’ (sherdog.com)

Still makes no damn sense.

WTF I would have bet my life "Showeather" was a joke about how Floyd Mayweather is boring. Turns out it was actually about the weather?

Club fighting journeymen don't face the reigning HW champion twice... then go off to avenge his death against a Russian boxer with a 1000 psionic punch.

The whole plot of Rocky Balboa (Rocky VI) is that the current champion Mason "The Line" Dixon couldn't match up with past great boxers like Rocky. So, canonically, in the Rocky universe, Rocky Balboa is one of the greatest HW boxers that ever lived

I feel the same about Edwards. Great fighter, but hardly an appropriate nickname for his style.

 

[markys00]

I don't think anyone actually understands the point of the thread

 

[markys00]

Okay. "Rush" to finish I see. lol.

Then he forgot to change his nickname to "No Rush" where he finished almost no opponents with point fighting.

Lol u got played just like his opponents. Bait and switch. Ur just a pawn lol

 

[rearnakedchoke]

Lol GSP wasn't called Rush because of the band.

Holy shit. How have I never heard this before. Imagine gsp listening to rush and thinking he should use it as a nickname. That would be my last thought.

saying this as a Canadian of course.

 

[rearnakedchoke]

Nah.
At some point the young assassin doesnt make sense.
Also Marcus davis more appropriately should be the American hand grenade of Irish decent. Same with mark munoz. The american wrecking machine, of Filipino descent born in Japan.


I guess they don’t have good rings to them.

 

[EXOICHO]

Showeather is worse

Remember how much he would tweet to try to hype up the nickname?
