    I'd be mad too if in my last fight I got my ass kicked for 6 rounds and won a lucky cuts victory.

    He was born in west ham. He's English.

    He also had his first 15 or so fights on the domestic British scene in England

    Then like anybody who isn't Joe Calzaghe, he went where the money is, to the states

    Your family blood determines your identity, not your location. The man's parents are Jamaican, so he's Jamaican.

    Correct. By birth his nationality is English, but by genes he is not.

    His parents are Jamaican i believe, so therefore he is all Jamaican blood, but being born in England and spending his early life there he is English/Jamaican with a Canadian accent from living there for years.

    Didn't see the Jamaican option

    But if we want to go that route then pretty much none of the US fighters can claim to actually be American

    Though sadly most have completely lost contact with their roots
