    ok, now we need a Canadian to claim him. Always wanted this fight. I’m American so I’m just an observer (who watched him beat up our best).

    well, he’s the best HW to ever hold a Brit passport. He’s also the best HW to ever hold a Canadian passport. And he did fight for Canada in the Olympics.

    One can understand the fight over who claims him. He grew up in Canada, had his amateur career there, won gold for them in the Olympics.

    My Country of Birth is Scotland,
    my Country of living & coming of age & early living adult years, first half of my kids life is Canada
    my Country of choice for residing in is England...
    with that they are.

    Benny Lynch, though there are a few h2h rivals.
    Lennox Lewis - if LL is excluded it would probably be McClarnin, though Ireland tries to claim him, wrong!
    Len Harvey - defo, as old Gilbert Odd crowned him - the Prince of Boxing and for good reason.
