    Both look good. Bhop looks stronger then usual. He is planning on a physical fight. Calzaghe is no slouch. Muscles tone dont mean **** in a fight.

    So by your definition no Black person can represent any countries outside Africa or the Carribean. And guys like Diego Corrales and De La Hoya cant be defined as American by your reckoning either.

    Race and nationality are two different things.

    Like me! Jamaican roots but born in the UK. If I was a pro boxer I would be representing Britain but culturally I am Jamaican they is a difference but waht does that matter here. Lennox wanted to represent the country of his birth.

    -Kitchener isn't in London, son.

    He represented Canada as an Olympian! (Deco represents Portugal as a pro)

    You confirm the point I always make in these debates, Race and nationality being different, by race you are Black carribean but by Nationality you are British.

    Americans always try this but casually ignore that if they live by this 'hes black he cant be British' then they have to give up Mayweather, Hopkins and more or less all their boxers.

    I think in his Bio ... he moved to Canada when he was 14 or 13 ... represented them in the Olympics ... Got the gold for Canada not GB ...

    He represents GB but the bulk of his elite status was in the US?

    Deco is a product of Brazilian football.

    Lennox is a product of Canadian boxing.

    Owen Hargreaves was born in Canada.
