QUESTION:Who is the only Welsh speaking Heavy weight champion?

[Britkid]

Yes I mean WORLD HW champion.

Well then, Robert Fitzsimmons being born in Cornwall, I am guessing has Celtic blood in him, and knew Welsh?

In the age of the internet,its quite hard to find questions that cant be answered with a few buttons being pushed.


Pluse its one of the only times I can remember Britkid being stumped with a boxing question.

Well I had no idea that Welsh was it's own language. Seriously, I didn't know. Does that mean Joe Calzaghe speaks welsh and how different is it from English?

So with that out there, I'm giving myself multiple guesses. 3, technically 4.

First my main picks, I'll take the Klitschkos, either of them. I know Wlad knows multiple languages, more then just Russian and English and I'll take a stab at Welsh being one of them.

Then I have 2 wildcards who are from areas on the map that very well could speak welsh. At least for what I know. The first is the more likely of the two and I think it might be the right answer, Tommy Burns. Burns was Canadian which I have not a clue about. For all I know his parents could have been Welsh settlers. I did read Unforgivable Blackness and he was in it quite a bit, he was a globetrotter and only Jack Johnson made more international defenses I believe. Maybe in his travels he grew fond for the Welsh language. That's my best guess.

Then the ultimate wild card is Ingo Johansson. He's Swedish which I know is Scandanavion but I don't believe that's a language and I have no idea what they actually speak. I'll assume it's not Welsh but maybe there are pockets of Welsh speaking folk in Sweden and Ingo happened to be in that pocket.

Please tell me, rep comment preferrably.

Welsh is its own language. The most common language used in Wales is English, but people do still speak Welsh.

Very few people speek it as a first language.

Here is an exaple of Welsh language usage.

[Majesty]

ok some questions. Is it a heavyweight champion in boxing? or another sport like kickboxing or mma?

And was this before or after Queensbury rules?
