Why do BK fighters always say Brooklyn as if it makes them tough?

[brickcityboxing]

what's the point of repping a city though?

I know right !

Yeah you could kinda see it in the olympics. Looked like a better version of Allan Green. Very talented though, he'll probably still go pretty far.

Yep, I like Marcus but when you can take his best shots and avoid some of his sneaky punches and take him into deep water, make it an ugly fight, he will get uncomfortable and lose his focus...and he was known in the amateurs for getting tired in fights cuz he tried so hard to knock guys out early on...

Marcus doesn't like a rough fight unless he's the one making it rough...he has great speed for his size but he has flaws...maybe he'll correct them but you can't go inside his brain and change him...

Rappers maybe, but I never seen any boxers from East Los yell EAST LA! to scare an opponent while yapping trash talk.

Recent years in MMA the Diaz brothers are the only ones who are pretty vocal about their city they rep Stockton hard every day. I wouldn't be proud to be from Stockton its one of the most miserable violent cities in the US.

didnt say there was a point and Im not defending him. Im just saying its not a boxing thing. People do it all the time and Brooklyn is probably the #1 that does it. I think its become like a running theme now. Even during *****'s speech a few weeks ago, when he was walking out someone said they were from BK and ***** said "Brooklyn in the house"

Yeah. I live in the bay area an agree one of the worst cities in the world that no one has heard of. That being said im a big guy & I can fight plus I wrestled in high school and college but I dont **** around with cats from San Jose cali. Everyone is in MMA ive see so many cats get destroyed on a saturday night.

lol true, I think that goes with Cali in general. Go to Huntington beach and most of those white boys and latinos do MMA no joke.

Cali is a hot bed for MMA, you have to be careful who you mess with.

Its the same story anytime I go to san jose. Big meat head is talking reckless to some normal sized guy. Meat head trys to punk regular sized dude 2 secs later big meathead is lights out on the ground walking away calmly like its nothing. Meat heads friends try talking **** but no one steps up.

The latino cats thay get slept usually go to the car to grab pistols then shoot in the air or get areested .

philly fighters are the worst offenders. they can't go two seconds without jizzing over philly. i get why people rep a city but yeah, shut the **** up.
