Mark Hughes was very fast

"It was just two world class players going for a 50/50 ball."

John King's description of a crunching tackle on Ossie Ardiles in the FA Cup Third Round tie at White Hart Lane: 10th January 1979.

His nickname was "empty head" so your point is valid!

Ben Hatton was nicknamed "dime bar" he's had the last laugh though with him being a multimillionaire before he hit his 30s
