I remember when he was fighting his nickname was "Outlaw", Drunken Master seems to be an internet meme that's grown up after he retired.

Um, dunno, I feel it's a bit wrong to add a nickname to a fighter that they didn't use when active.

Re: No nickname for Emanuel Augustus
I don't remember ever hearing Augustus referred to as The Outlaw. Must've been a ways back in his career.
I agree with John's sentiment that a nickname that was never used by the Fighter during his active years shouldn't be added.

Yeah he was known as the outlaw, he had it on his shirts but yes maybe the drunken master more of a name used by others after he finished boxing.
