    He was born and raised in England = British

    He represented the UK as a proffesional = British

    So what if repped Canada in the olympics? He still isn't canadian, or jamaican. He was born and raised in the UK and that makes him BRITISH.

        how was he raised in england when he moved to canada at 12 and remained there?

        Lewis was born on 2 September, 1965, in West Ham, London, England to Jamaican-born parents.[2] At birth he weighed 10 pounds 10 ounces (4.8 kg), and was given the name Lennox by the doctor, who said he looked like a Lennox.[3] Lewis moved to Kitchener, Ontario, Canada in 1977 at the age of 12. He attended Cameron Heights Collegiate Institute for high school, where he excelled in Canadian football, soccer and basketball.[4]

          The "he is canadian cuz he fought for canada in the olympics" argument is pathetic.

          He fought for the UK as a proffesional, people forgot that? never mind the fact that he was BORN AND RAISED IN LONDON.

          Lennox was never canadian and he never will be.

              So Lewis wasn't raised at all until he became 12?

              HE WAS BORN IN LONDON.

              HE FOUGHT FOR THE UK AS A PROFFESIONAL.

              If you moved to China when you were 12 would that make you Chinese? GET REAL.

                    He was born in the UK. That tops all of your arguments. The UK is his country of birth. It's his home.

                    fougth for canada? how much longer are you gonna ignore the FACT that he fought for the UK his WHOLE PROFFESIONAL CAREER. which was several times longer than his amatuer career.
