Mike Tyson's 4th opponent Ricardo Spain is introduced as Rick "The Ram" Spain, can this nickname be added to his record please.

50 seconds into video.

Edit: just seen the below link where he was involved in an incident, apparently his real name is Abdul Rahman. It also says he was aged 63 in 2017 so he would've been born around 1954.

Ricardo Spain is his real name. He likely converted to Islam and adopted a Muslim name after his boxing career. His year of birth is indeed 1954, but dates of birth are currently not show on the public profiles here.

Ah ok that makes sense, thank you, can his nickname be added to his main page?
