I believe Lennox Lewis was born in England, it was his mum that was Jamaican I think. Don't know about the others

[salsanchezfan]

I can't figure any list that would have Bruno ahead of McCallum. One was a great fighter. The other people liked to talk about a lot.

In one of those "Legendary Nights" documentaries they referred to him as the Jamaican-born Englishman who represented Canada at the olympics.

"If you're a citizen of everywhere, you're a citizen of nowhere"

I think, anyway

Trevor Berbick was a decent heavyweight.:good

You obviously don't 'know'. Lewis was born in West Ham. Mike McCallum's the most obvious choice here. :good

[heerko koois]

Frank Bruno was not born in Jamaica..........

[Holmes' Jab]

Mike McCallum is the first that immediately spring to mind. The I suppose Trevor Berbick and Owen Beck.

[young griffo]

What about Simon Brown?
He was Jamaican I believe and he was a damn good fighter in his day.

[heerko koois]

Razor Ruddock.........

[JohnThomas1]

Richard 'Shrimpy' Clarke

If you look around on the main page, there was an article about Jamaican fighter a couple of weeks ago. Is Emile Griffith Jamaican?

Virgin Islands, I think!

Which brings the question, who would win the battle of the virgin Islanders; Griffith vs Julian Jackson

[Raggamuffin]

The Hawk off course.
He loved fighters coming in and Griffith was a good pressure infighter

Emile Griffith wins. Jackson hit hard and if anyone could dent Griffith's chin it would be him but Griffith was so much better. He would rin Jackson up on the inside and outbox him on the outside. You also have to remember that Jackson had a shaky chin himself and Griffith had more than enough power to stop him. Griffith wins

[Nemesis]

yeah, it all depends on whether Griffith makes it through the first five rounds

[PowerPuncher]

Lennox Lewis
Razor Rudduck
Mike McCallum
Lloyd Honeyghan - beat P4P no1 Curry
Otis Grant - WBO Middleweight
Trevor Berbick
Kirkland Laing - beat Duran

[JohnThomas1]

Lloyd Honeyghan - beat P4P no1 Curry


Number 2 to Hagler at the time actually. From memory.

[AREA 53]

Bunny Sterling ?

[Sonny's jab]

Frank Bruno was born in London, England.
Hammersmith I think. Grew up in Wandsworth.

[heerko koois]

Bob Marley did some boxing............

[ThePlugInBabies]

lennox lewis - born in west ham, london.

frank bruno - born in hammersmith, london.

[brownpimp88]

Mike Mccallum is prolly the best from that country. IMO, he is one of the most underrated greats in boxing. The man would have beat terry norris and thomas hearns IMO.

[Mohak]

Bruno is Jamaican? I always thought he was of Nigerian decent.
