How many times did he fight in Canada? Or Jamaica? ZERO He's American by your logic with that post lol
He brought glory to Canada, winning the gold medal. This was the country he became a man in, the country he learned the sport of boxing in, the country he called home. He is a world citizen, but if you have to pick a country it's clearly Canada.
He actually fought in Canada a few times. Back in the day, Lennox was boo'd in Britain; they claimed he wasn't British enough. But now that the Brits have really no heroes suddenly Lennox has always been British for them. :rofl:-( If you asked Lennox, he would say he's a fighter of all these places. (Just look it up in the pre-fight interviews before the Vitali fight.)
What the **** is the British thing about? Dont listen to these National Front types who believe he cant be classfied as English because his skin is brown. His skin?? what the fcuk. Hes born in England, hes at least part English. If he was white, theyd' be happy to call him part english. You know, Brits on here complain about Americans being bad but jeesh you should hear some of the views of English people here, so racist. Sure hes a Brit too, just like everyone else who is English.
Grew up in London Fought for Canada in the olympics cos thats where he lived. Much like Ryan Giggs playing for England schoolboys. Fought nearly all of his early fights in england then went to the states when he became a superstar, does that make him a yank ? No. Said he was english.is english.
