    For following Michael Moorer as much as I did back in the day I never took notice that he was from Brooklyn. Tyson was from Brownsville and that later Castskill. Not sure how the burrow system works in New York though.

    rc, Rocky Graziano whom I saw as a prelim fighter to his ill-fated wars with Tony Zale was born in Manhattan across the East river from Brooklyn...NO ONE, but no one, was as exciting to watch than
    young grenade throwing Graziano from the lower east side of New York City...
