    As for Pascal, his fight with Yuniesky Gonzalez was a great scrap. Incredibly violent. Very close and Pascal got the nod although it could have easily gone the other way.
    The Bulldog fought good opponents but the other guys were more domestic opposition besides Lemieux

      The newest one on the rise is Christian Mbilli.

      Not originally from Canada either, but much like a lot of others mentioned, he seems to be repping Canada and lives there.

      My old coach said Canadians are strong, tough as hell, but not great technicians in the ring.

      I think he said he was watching Ali vs Chuvalo with Tony Zale and Zale said, “man, if only they taught Chuvalos how to box.”

        Was gonna mention Artur but I feel he identifies more as Russian. Obviously above Pascal if you view him as Canadian.
        He lives in Canada, his children were born there, and he fights under Canada's flag.

          You love a pointless argument don’t you. Get a life man.

          If you see him as Russian cool, if you see him as Canadian cool. There’s no right or wrong answer, same with Lennox.

          Google dual-nationality.

            He became a Canadian citizen and voluntarily fights under their flag. It isn't a matter of opinion at all. He is Canadian. You are the one arguing against a fact for no reason.

            Tons of fighters move to the US or Canada but still fight under their native country's flag. He doesn't.

              Google dual nationality. Google sanctions on Russian athletes.

                He's a Canadian citizen who lives in Canada with a Canadian passport and Canadian children, fighting voluntarily under the Canadian flag.

                Bivol lives and trains in the US most of the year but he still fights under the Russian flag. And he wasn't even born there, he was born in Kyrgyzstan to a Moldovan father and Korean mother. He didn't get to Russia until he was 11 years old. But he chooses to identify as a Russian based on his teen years spent there, so he's Russian.

                  “Getting a Canadian passport was a forced situation” Artur Beterbiev.

                  You’re so desperate to try and prove people wrong and ignite arguments on a boxing forum. You need a life that exists beyond your keyboard. You’re one sad little man.

                    There's also David Lemieux. I think they're all living in Montreal, Quebec, the fight capital of the province. Most Quebecers don't call themselves Canadians until Trump's tariff nonsense.
