There were so many good boxers in the 70's/80's. Ali, Frazier, Norton, Foreman. Some with great names... Sugar Ray Leanord, Thomas the Hit Man Hearns, Ray Boom Boom Mancini, Marvelous Marvin Hagler. Frazier was Smokin Joe Frazier.

Interesting side note on those names, Hagler legally changed his name in the 80's to Marvelous Marvin Hagler.
