    Who really gives a fúck what nationality he is? Could be Marshan for all I care, still one of the top 5 HW's of all-time.

    it is a bit weird that Britain's greatest ever boxer has an Olympic medal for Canada.

    He is clearly, like all of us, 'from' East Africa. His 'nationality' is an abstract concept that people place their own values to, in defining. And there is nothing 'clear' about that...

    The best heavyweight of a generation chose to represent the country he was born in.

    What a crime.

    Lennox was born in London, lived there until he was 12, was taken to Canada to live by his Mother, returned back to the UK 10 years later. Turned pro and fought and lived in Britain.. How could he possibly be a Brit?? :lol:

    You waste your good time my friend. The silly man who write that has just been dumped by only girlfriend ever and now craves some attention even if it only be via pathetic troll posts. If we ignore him he return soon to his masturbation. :lol:

    lewis was a great boxer...but his britishness was never questioned until he fought bruno. I;d say 90% of the uk wanted bruno to win even though we knew he would;t
