Well Dr Bob, I'm not sure it does refer to ugly in that way......I think its actually meant as "not very good looking" but as a demonstration that the person is big enough to take a little knock in a friendly rough and tumble kind of way.
You would quite often use the term in the persons presence and the fact they chuckled at your remark rather than thumped you one was demonstation enough that the person was indeed big enough to handle a bit of banter.
