                There are several states that come to mind that have yet to be mentioned...

                Massachusetts- Rocky Marciano, Marvin Hagler, John L. Sullivan

                Florida- Roy Jones, Jr., Antonio Tarver, Winky Wright

                Pennsylvania- Bernard Hopkins, Joe Frazier (originally from SC but claims Philly)

                New York- Mike Tyson, Floyd Patterson

                Those are just a few off the top of my head...

                      That takes your list down a notch or so.

                      Robinson was born in Detroit....

                      Louis moved to Detroit at a young age and boxed there his whole life

                      Hearns started at Detroit his whole life
