Leeder Help: Tonight's Boxing (25) RE: Help: Tonight's Boxing 19 Nov 01


Re Lennox's ancestry: I believe he was born in England, of Jamaican parents, who later emigrated to Canada. He grew up in Kitchener, Ontario, won a gold for Canada in the Olympics (he could have chosen to compete for England or Jamaica as well), moved back to England when he turned pro. His accent would be a conglomerate of all that, and I would guess would be pretty hard to pin down even for an expert.

My son-in-law is a fan; we paid close attention to the fight when I was in England (but didn't get up at 3:00 a.m., nor pay the pay-per-view toll). I picked Lennox in the 5th -- I was just one round off.
