Whatever, piggy back on Canada's boxing achievements if you must! I just think it's lame, is all.

Whatever reason Lewis picked Britain , mainly because he was born there , he chose it because he preferred it to Canada , cant you read between the lines ? He chose it, not the British public , but Lewis himself.

It's Lennox Lewis.

Hey, if you're looking at genetics to make someone British, then you'd have to omit every non-Anglo-Saxon on your list, but being a citizen of a particular Nation is a political construct not based on race; it's birthright citizenship if you're born there, and Lennox Lewis was. That's the white man's laws.

Maybe you're right though, therefore white people and black people in Canada and the USA aren't really true citizens of North America at all but merely offspring of illegal alien European immigrants as you certainly are not First Nations people indigenous to this continent (indigenous, American "Indians".)

That makes Lennox not Canadian, not British, and not Jamaican either, but African.


Maybe you're right, maybe you're wrong...

i can't believe nobody has mentioned the greatest British heavyweight of all time, without a debate or a shadow of a doubt, no question about it at all ...... The mighty Funso Banjo!

Clearly you must all be having memory problems. Our most successful heavyweight was obviously Joe Bugner!!!!!

To me it's 70% where you are produced as a boxer, 25% genetics and 5% where you were born (usually that's a part of where you are produced as a boxer but in Lennox "The Wannabe Limey" Lewis' case they must be separated.) That means he's 5% a British boxer.
