what i loved about lennox lewis was how he let his boxing do the talking.quiet fellow but did have a sense of humour.as good as any heavey weight ever


lennox lewis is about as british as the polish man that has taken your job! born here and thats about it, even represented canada at the Oylimpics! and trained full time in north america as a pro! Pretty sure since he retired he lives in the states aswell!

It's just a tennis bat. It's f**k all, I was reasonable at hitting a ball over a net and trying my best to take my mates head off with a serve thing. Shit game no fans, unless you wish to observe women's underware close up and personal. Used to get offered several hundred tickets for Wimbledon tennis free, bring a few folk along type of thing. I did go once, my very good friend's daughter was playing, she lost deliberately as she was going to some Italian tournament.

No No, now you are just thick as you have no idea about anything of my background and have decided im a hypocrit.

Ive come to my reasoning having access to lewis history either online and having read his autobiog. So its far less hypocritical for me to give a reasoning that is for someone to give reasoning on me.

Totally contradicts your previous post about Lennox Lewis. Hypocrisy at its finest.

lennox lewis born in london.yes boxed for canada and yes i was a bit dubious when he first picked the union flag up.what i came to believe by his work in helping the poorer classes of london(which went in the main unheard)was that he had a love of the london and the uk.tbh i couldn,t care less if lennox was a albanian.the fellow was class as a boxer and as a human being.im not russian but i admire the klitscho bro,s.gentlemen

Paul di Resta. Now there's a nice lad, always got time for interviews, always got a smile on his face, great attitude, very humble, and he's british. I really hope he gets the red bull seat next season when mark webber retires. He's deffo a future world champion in the making
