    Canada doesn't have many fighters to be proud of.

    It's a good thing they taught Lennox the sweet science, and he brought the glory of a Gold Medal back to them.

    Oh yeah i remember the days when Lewis was not a "Real Brit' i remember when he fought in England and was BOO'd because he was not pure enough.

    Then he started winning......amd they adopted him.

    Exactly.

    They all called him boring. They call him Canadian.

    Then they looked back in history and realized they have **** all for A level fighters. Now he's a hero to them.

    There you have it folks.

    A brittard has confirmed what I've been saying.

    The BRITS called him Canadian. Then they realized what they had and NOW he's a "respected british gent". Talk about changing your tune. Wow. Brittards.
