Lennox Lewis is definitley a Canadian. The Brits didn't even like lennox the first couple of years of his career when he was fighting in britain and even they considered him a canadian. It wasn't until he beat Bruno that they really had no choice but to call him one of their own or else be embarassed that their country's best fighter got beat by another country's fighter.Comment

the brits only claimed him afterwards because for such a boxing country with lots of boxing fans and boxing people , they do produce relatively few good fighters.
i wouldn't be surprised if calzaghe wasn't british either......Comment

vitali pulls out of fights because of injury problems at 31-32.
you ever think maybe a 40 yr. old lennox might have injury problems too , herb?
he was 38 yrs. old or so when they fought. lennox was talking about retirement years before he kicked vitali's ass......Comment
