No announcement yet.
Lets settle this today. Do you consider Lennox Lewis Canadian or British?

Yeah but he came back, and fought Rahman toe to toe and knocked him out. Taking away all doubt.
Plus, the rematch was in Vegas under the most scrutiny possible. He didn't make Rahman fight at national waters, and run away for 12 rounds.

Hey Rexy, you don't get to keep Lennox and dump Greg Rusedski lol.
He repped Britain so it is what it is but really he's a Jamaican just like Razor Ruddock, Ben Johnson, Mike MCCallum, Lloyd Honeyghan, Donovan Bailey and the magical John Barnes.

British people are losers. That loser mentality permeates a lot of fighters here. Fury bucks the trend actually but I do question whether his fighting, gypsy roots play a role in that. If you want to compare a quintessentially british fighter to Lewis then look at Bruno and just how inferior he was.
Lewis has only really been British on paper. He doesn't live here, left here when he was twelve and spent a good chunk of his peak fighting in Las Vegas.
Bruno is also Jamaican.

EDIT - for some reason I confused Kitchener with Whitby, another near by town. Kitchener probably an hour from
Toronto.Last edited by _Rexy_; 11-18-2021, 11:06 AM.

Definitely Canadian, he fought for their Olympic national team. Only reason people say he's British is because of his accent.
