The greatest European HW...

[aljon]

Lennox Lewis.. Is this a trick question?

[K-DOGG]

who is it?

Lennox fought in the Olympics for Canada; but that doesn't mean he wasn't a Brit. That being said, he'd have to be the best British heavyweight of all time, or at least the most accomplished in modern times.

In all of Europe, still Lennox with Max Schmeling coming in second...at least from what I know....this isn't counting all the heavyweights who fought behind the Iron Curtain, btw. From what I understand, there were several outstanding Soviet Bloc fighters; but I am not learned enough in there history to make comparisons.

That's an old one, he was born in London.

My bad, yes he was... and fought under a British flag as a pro

Lewis without a doubt.
