   The headline of the article I've read is: "Who has the best nickname in boxing?". The article was written by Alex McClintock. It was published in the on-line newspaper "The Guardian"  on May, 28.  The main idea of the article is about the varieties and the meaning of  a nickname in boxing.

    The article is telling us about nicknames, which are something your manager thinks of before your first fight! 

     The author starts by telling that It was a moment in the history of boxing when someone decided that it was compulsory for every fighter to have a nickname. And since that point, the sport has been plagued by awful nicknames. Well, the appeal of the Klitschko brothers' nicknames is all about Eastern Bloc schlock. The Rocky-villain factor is dialed up to 11, and with it a certain homoeroticism (exhibits A, B, and C). The schlock factor is so high on these nicknames that they're hardly ever used, which is exactly why we should never forget them.

   The author gives us another different nicknames of other famous people, like: 

Ruslan 'The Siberian Rocky' Provodnikov

Erislandy 'The American Dream' Lara

In conclusion the author says that: "Amid the dross, there are some superb monikers in boxing. Here is an analysis of what makes a nickname work."

I found the article very interesting, the hole life I am engaged in different varieties of spot! But boxing for me is one of the best and important sport for me. Looking for sport news- it's very important!
