Is "Rumble" The GOAT Nickname In MMA?

[Sensee]

I've never heard anyone say just Ruthless though. It's always Ruthless Robbi Lawler. So I'd say more of a title than a nickname

Agreed. 99% of the time people just call him Robbie.
it's like he don't have a last name lol. I'm certainly guilty of it.

I'm a fan of Bam Bam Tuivasa as well

Met him in Philadelphia, very pleasant.

"Rumble" just sticks and describes his fighting style perfectly.
"Rampage" is also a great nickname for the same reasons.

Confirmed TS is my clone. Or maybe I'm his clone?

These are my favorite two nicknames since forever. I think I even posted about this like 5 years ago.



Rumble is straight up the baddest name ever, and Rampage is not too far behind.

Also, there's another Rumble... one of the coolest Decepticons of all time.

Boy I hope I’m just missing the sarcasm on that

Fun fact: In one of the UFC games released by thq (may have been the first) both shogun and Rampage had their nicknames as their first names lol

It is a great nickname in most languages. But it English it sounds like show gun which does not fit Rua.

No one thinks that.

No one thinks that.

A causal hipster at work asked me on messenger if I know who Fedor, Rampage, Show Gun and Mercury Cop were. Somebody recommended him to watch PRIDE, maybe a Sherdogger.

It's solid not sure it or any are "The Best" - I suppose like such conversations it's a pretty wide array.

Did Datsik have a nickname?

 

[D4C]

Roy "Big Country" Nelson

 

[ForeverZero]

[lilianjie]

For me it's the Croatian Cop

 

[Alexander_GOATanovski]

Definitely one of the better ones imo. My personal favorite is Rich "the Ginger with Intent to Injure" Pfeifer

 

[Portland8242]

I dunno why but Petr "no mercy" Yan always sat good with me.

Generally the standard of nicknames has gone way downhill, full of obvious toughguys marketing rather than believable nicknames someone would have had at a gym.

It's from "rumble young man rumble", an Ali quote, some credit to Bundini. It's not original. Like Violent Bob Ross, for all his struggles...



Right on the money

Jailhouse Jones

Gracie Hunter by far. This shit is not just a nickname, it's a TITLE bestowed upon him.
