    I get ye now. But the way you wrote it looked as if you were sayin Americans claimed him as Canadian, as if you were sayin they were claiming him as one of their own (which is why I thought you thought Canada was in America) untill he got knocked out then he was a Brit.

    You should write things a bit more clearly. Theres no context in words... mongrel.

    I for one think brits have unusually good chins.

    They know how to bite down and show their grit.

    Who the hell are the 'British'? Froch, Khan, Chisora, Maccarinelli, Bellew, Afolabi and Calzaghe are all British boxers by birthplace. Each of these men has a different ancestry and genetic makeup, and therefore to generalise about the quality of chin of different British fighters is absurd.
