Lennox Lewis the Canadian heavyweight

He was born in the UK wasn't he? If so, he is British. Then he lived in the UK for some of the time during his career.

 

That's over 200 on my ignore list now lol.

 

The Dude is Canadian.Educated,learned boxing there and has citizenship.He went back to England and put on a phony accent for one reason only-MONEY!

 

Yea because he would of been paid peanuts representing canada wouldn't he?

 

Britains greatest heavyweight

 

He was born in the UK, lived the first 12 years of his life in London, has dual citicizenship with the UK and Canada and chose to represent the UK as a professional boxer. Britain has just as much claim to him as Canada does.

 

He was born in England and lived there until he was 12. He is English. However, because he moved to Canada and lived there for a while he gained Canadian citizenship. Therefore, Lewis is an Englishman with dual citizenship.

End Thread.

 

did i take up that much room shi teee

 

britain we give all our best s hit away and love keeping the c r a p

 

All depends on how Lewis sees himself and he sees himself as British.I don't think he ever felt Canadian.When he first moved there he was teased because of his London accent.

 

He lived in Canada for 11 years and in in UK for 26 years all together

 

Born in the UK, lived there the majority of his life and represented them as a professional boxer. Lived in Canada for much lesser amount of his life and represented them as an amateur. I think there is a much stronger case for him being British, and why is that? Because he is ****ing British!

 

These f uckers go wherever it suits them and who can blame 'em.

 

He's multi-national.

He's certainly not a product of British boxing though.
But then nor was Chris Eubank.
