I'm not sure if it's his official one or not?  We'll know for sure next week when Bruce Buffer introduces him.

haven't made a ranking yet but Pat 'Awesomely Awesome' Audinwood is pretty, well ... awesome lol

also i found this http://www.sporcle.com/games/bloodclot/mma_nicknames#

i haven't tried it properly yet but i will do when i get time, i doubt i'll get them all in the 15 min limit but it'll be fun trying lol

*didn't do that bad after all, i got 97 out of the 100. the other 3 either wouldn't come to me before the time ran put or i just didn't know

i don't want to spoil it for those that do have a go but i'm sure most if not all know these 2... Rashad is in as 'sugar' not 'suga' and Diego Sanchez is nightmare not dream, there were a couple more but as i said i don't want to spoil it lol

just try old and new nicknames as a couple took more time cause of  nickname changes (or spelling lol) and don't worry about putting 'the' at the beginning of each nickname like "The Nightmare" etc
