    Ruddock was a beast...that smash hook

      Lennox never defended his undisputed crown...so..meh...**** 'em, he deserved some criticism. Joshua's looking worse, like he will never be undisputed. **** him too.

        He gets hate but just cleared $80 million plus in his last fight. Coming off a loss to.
        I have a feeling he’s doing just fine and doesn’t see the majority of what these keyboard warriors are saying.

          Both of them are Jamaicans. OG Canadians and Brits aren't as athletic.

            Lewis and Ruddock are Jamaicans. Bruno is half Jamaica,

            Damn, we be well represented.

              Both trained out of here, brejin. Even Manny Steward called Lennox a Canadian fighter.

                Lewis’s hate was worse. Just watch him before the Moorer/Puller and Lewis/Butler back to back card!!! The media were in on him. Even Emmanuel Stewart his trainer was giving it to him. I then saw the broadcast for the Henry akinwade fight and its the same thing. It’s amazing that he seems to have forgotten how he was treated by the American media.

                  Well whatever they are, Ben Johnson is a great Canadian hero...Lennox Lewis is a sellout.

                    I'm sure he remembers, but he was treated just as badly by the British press. The whole reason Bruno wore the "True Brit" trunks in their fight was because they kept saying that Lennox was "just a Canadian and not a real British fighter like Bruno"

                    (was hard to find a good pic)

                      Ben Johnson is a shameful f**ck.

                      Donovan Bailey, also Jamaican, is where it's at.
