EXCLUSIVE! “Gladiator” Is a Curse!

So, here’s something interesting I noticed while looking up fight records on Sherdog today:
Ross “The Gladiator” Pointon: 5-10-0
Greg “The Gladiator” Wikan: 11-13-0
Orlando “The Gladiator” Weit: 1-3-0
Gabriel “Gladiator” Santos: 4-5-0
You hear that, people? The ghost of Maximus — father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife — does not want you to cheapen his memory by using “Gladiator” as your nickname. If you do, he will curse you with a losing record. And he will have his vengeance, in this life or the next.
Please spread awareness.

Not sure if fictional characters can have “ghosts.” Then again, I don’t know if actual people can have them either. Hmm.
Anyway, thanks for the heads-up. I’m changing my nickname to “Cinderella Man.”

What about Marcus “Maximus” Aurelio. He’s kicking ass with an even more direct Gladiator reference as a nickname.

Why is Ross Pointon still fighting?
