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

[thuggery]

but being black and not saying Em is the best is "black madness"?!?...funny logic there in the bold bro....I grew up in North Philly and can only speak on North Philly...I don't try to be the lip service for every hood across America...I never saw ppl in my neighborhood holla alot...I heard them guns shouting though....toughness is not physical....its mental!!

being from certain walks of life doesn't make you tougher or smarter...its just a pride thing...not really a big deal imo

You are not a rapper.

As long as a guy with the UK isn't saying Brooklyn mutha****a! Then it's all good... "U nam saying?"

First off....I'm black, and no.....saying Banks is lyrically superior to Em is madness, but this isn't a rap thread.

I don't care where anyone is from, that doesn't make them tough physically or mentally. Rid**** Bowe is from Brownsville in Brooklyn, a well known neighborhood, and he ducked a damn British fighter like a b*tch.....I wonder how his boys in Brooklyn felt about that one.

And shooting a gun doesn't equal tough either. Some white hick from Fargo may very well be able to beat the hell out of another person from a rougher neighborhood in whatever city. Neighborhood's don't equal toughness. It depends on the person.

Brooklyn is just another Manhattan now

back during the days of the Brooklyn Dodgers, it USED to be its own city, with its own personality.

Lots of immigrants and black folks who made Brooklyn what it was and it was the perfect place for Jackie Robinson to integrate into baseball. This was the time it got its reputation. No nonsense, tough, working class people.

Now its just full of hipsters and really the people repping brooklyn are no different from people in the Bronx.

Being from Brooklyn means absolutely nothing, your nothing special. Get over yourself you hipster clowns

You mean it used to be a hellhole and now it's much more habitable place.

I remember visiting my aunt in New York City, and this was when I was younger. We took one of those ****** uptown bus tour things, because I'd never been to NYC before. And this was back in like 2002, so I can't imagine now.....but the tour guide guy said even in Harlem, which is now being gentrified and everything, that you can't get rent any cheaper than like 1500 a month or some s**t. I was like who the f**k would live in this city for these prices, no offense to anyone or anything. I thought California and places in Colorado were ridiculous for prices, but NYC takes the cake, for the places I've been at least.

That's the price of living on Manhattan island where the world's financial elite go to work.

Brooklyn is worse, I heard you can't find s**t there for anything less than 1500-2000 a month. I mean I know the pay wages are higher due to cost of living there, but damn I can't imagine living in NYC. I'll take our other huge city, LA, over it any day of the week.

Anyway, That dude three losses against nobodies and two draws and no knockout wins.

His record is far from impressive (8 fights 3 W 3 L 2 D) but he's from BROOKLYN so Marcus Brown better watch out.

I noticed this a lot, lol, when they get into a confrontation they say BROOKLYN all day mu****a! or always drop that they are from the BK as if it gives them street cred or supposed to make the opponent scared like "oh damn he is from BK I better watch out I am going to lose! he has the special BK powers that will hurt me in the ring!" lol

Yeah that's some bulls**t. Downtown Denver, like skysc****r downtown and the gentrified areas near downtown are expensive here. I just don't think it's worth it, but I mean some people like living downtown downtown and being able to walk everywhere and what not.
