Did Lennox Lewis lose a lot of his natural slickness after he moved from UK?

    We all know that there's something in Britain's water that gives their athletes a natural way of moving inside the ring, of seeing punches before they're throwing. The magical intangible ingredient.

    With Lennox, he never seemed to quite have the slickness of other black British fighters. He always seemed to move around the ring kinda stiff, not as slick as you'd expect him to.

    I think his family moved away from the UK to North America during his teens. May that be an explanation? Did inferior North American boxing training mess with his natural genetic talents? :yep

    Yes. I do believe Canadians stole his slickness.

    Its hard to dodge punches and dance in the ring if you are a ****ing natural Heavyweight.
