Yes-- Half the reason why TB is in blue and white is because of Canadian snowbirds who are keen on the Leafs-- I'm from the North and my SO is from Montreal, but we both live in Toronto. We cheer for the Habs, and call Leafs fans the 'battered wives of hockey'. She's almost got me into fights... LOL. The NHL is still 40% Canadian though, and a lot of those guys come from small towns and cities, so there's always somebody to cheer for. It could be worse, my dad cheers for Chicago because he was 1 of 14 kids and their dad made them each pick different teams, and they were out of Canadian ones. Though Chicago has done well in recent years.
Canada slows down for any world championship game, and stops for the Olympic gold metal game.
Anyway, back to boxing-- I live within a stone's throw of two bars airing the fight. I'm tempted to open the window to hear the cheering one way or another. The number of casuals interested in this is huge.
