When i was a kid there was a story in Boxing Illustrated (fake one) about the great Sol Nazerman (Bagel-Boy). He had something like 30 straight KO's in places such as Whispering Falls, Tennessee, and Dead Racoon, Arkansas, and he was as big as a house. I bought it hook line and sinker. Found out soon after it was all the 'invention' of Elliot Harvith, publisher of the "underground" American Boxing News. Some other publications started carrying the news about the lad, so Harvith had him killed in a car accident in his next issue. LMFAO! Best prank ever.
Just like Ali Raymi really, except they never came clean about that.

Amir Khan invented all sorts of conspiracy theories after his loss to Lamont Peterson.

I thought Raymi was a real person who had "real" fights? (of course against janitors and goat herders)

I remain unconvinced. I can't find a single news story that reports the air strike that supposedly caused his death that doesn't originate from the press release his "manager" put out. His "manager" was a man named Felix J Arno, who as far as I can tell works for the United States Social Security Administration in Los Angeles. None of it really rings true.
