.....umm why? he was in Brooklyn

[buckfangs]

it was in NY in Brooklyn, would have been a much different response in LA

[WARQUEZ]

For some odd reason people love fighters who ask for catchweights. It's really bizarre.

Don't like the guy. He can be an ass sometimes, but he does deserves more ovations like those from tonight. He's a true champ.

.....umm why? he was in Brooklyn

how many fights has he had there

[_original_]

He gets a lot of love on the East Coast, noticed it during the Ortiz press conference in NY.

how many fights has he had there

it doesn't matter. He would get the same response in Harlem, Bronx, St Louis, Queens etc

Eh, don't like the guy, and normally I'd have something smart to say about it, but he's deserved an ovation like that for once.

Guy's been on the top for years, been getting booed out of his mind, and dedicated his life to the sport. Was with his daughter, and surprisingly, I was kinda happy that he got it.

Its because they realized compared to Broner, Mayweather is a saint
