      Lol born in jamaca, welcome to boxing scene, you have just proven your ignorance.

      On topic im surprised there is no mention of Danny Williams? he beat Prime Harrison, Tyson and retired Vitali Klitschko whos hands took years to recover from the damage inflicted by williams' face.

        Thought he was born in London of Jamaican parentage. Still can't really claim him as British much as I'd like to, ditto Fitzsimmons.
        In answer to the question Ted Kid Lewis or Jimmy Wilde, honourable mention to Buchanan and if either Conteh or Benny Lynch had kept focased it would have
        probably been them.

            Lennox Lewis was born and bred in London for fcuk sake ....he lived there till he was 14 yrs old ! Lennox even considers himself a londoner ......so who are we to tell him different !?
            Met him in a boxing shop once ....he is fcuking huge ....i mean i am 6ft 1 and i looked like a little boy along side of him
            My kid brother who's a bit of a clown kept offering him out side for a bit of toe to toe .....lennox couldn't stop laughing at him lol!
            We didn't have a camera with us or we would of took a pic ...but rest a assured Lennox is a real cool fella and a great laugh !

              I have Irish parents but that still doesn't make me Irish! I was born in England. I'm English like big Lennox.

              BTW This thread = Lennox Lewis.

                In New Zealand and Australia if you have done something noteworthy, and once your parents flew over that region in a plane thats enough for them to claim you as a kiwi or aussie.

                  Where you' re born means nothing unless you live and grow up there. IF you were born in Japan to Irish parents you wouldn't be calling yourself Japanese.
