Welsh accent is far from English sounding. I don't hate the Welsh personally because most of my family are Welsh

I could be wrong as I have only heard one person speak in a Welsh accent before. But his accent was very English sounding. But he lived near the border with England. He said he used to drive to England to get certain groceries.Comment

His accent was more English sounding than Scottish or Irish sounding but this is only one man. And like I said he lived right on the border of England.Originally posted by JUYJUYComment

And I don't really know what English sounding is because there are so many completely different accents in England - ****ney, Geordie, West Country, Scouser, Mancunian/Lancashire, Yorkshire. I've got a ****ey accent through growing up on the streets of Peckham and Hammersmith

Nigel Benn/Frank Bruno/Henry Cooper have a ****ney accent, Ricky Hatton has a Mancunian/Lancashire accent, Naseem Hamed has a Yorkshire accent.
Lennox Lewis I'm not so sure about (sometimes it sounds Canadian and other times Jamaican and sometimes slightly ****ney but hardly much), neither am I so sure about Chris Eubank
Eubank just seems to act as if he has a pompous accent or a silver-spoon-sucking English gent kind of accent but it was an act with Eubank and now it's stuck! Eubank apparently used to have a natural Jamaican accent in New York and then spoke with a Brooklyn/Bronx bad-boy accent when he came back to England in 1988 before switching to a pompous English accent around 1989 to suit his newly-created persona.

Yeah I am aware of that there is a vast difference inbetween English accents. I am more an expert than you would believe with British accents.Originally posted by JUYJUYAnd I don't really know what English sounding is because there are so many completely different accents in England - ****ney, Geordie, West Country, Scouser, Mancunian/Lancashire, Yorkshire.
