    Born and raised for 13 years in London, England

    Lets just call him a Londoner.





    Not that I actually give a shit.
    agreed. who gives a shit He has roots in England, he has roots in Canada. He was born in England. If he wants to impress the Brits, then hell yeah he'll say that's where his heart is. I always supported him cause of his Canadian roots, That gold medal was awesome, as far as I'm concerned he was on our team then.

    Sven Ottke would be considered an all-time great if from the States.

    if the klitschko were american I think they'd be promoted better. Espn would cover their fights, they'd be expose to the public a lot more in AMERICA.
