                  Mayweather is also from Michigan.

                  Hagler moved to Marciano's hometown of Brockton, Mass when he was a kid, so you can count him from both there and Newark, New Jersey.

                  South Carolina - Frazier until he was 15, then moved to Philadelphia, PA.

                  Alabama, Michigan - Joe Louis

                  New Jersey - Gatti, until after his retirement.
