Stop claiming Kenyan British and British Canadian. No South African blood is in them.

Then Stop claiming none Nigerian athletes as your own

You did not win any Cricket world cup. EOD.

And? Did I mention that SA is also the only country that was ranked 1st in Test, ODI and T20 at the same time!

forgiveness:
He represented Kenya at early stage of his career. Stop lying.

How could he, when he moved to South Africa at the age of 14?

edon21:
Froom was born in Kenya and is representing Kenya. Has English parents. His only attachment to South Africa is his girlfriend.
Stop lying
Stop grasping at straws boy

He represented Team South Africa when he started his cycling career, he has dual SAn and British citizenship

And he represents Great Britain not Kenya

edon21:

I'm White

edon21:
I said yes or no. No long statements. Again Federer is Swiss . Swiss father

That's the deal mate take it or leave it!

edon21:
U know, when we state facts... It becomes racist discussion to you

Nope you guys can't seem to grasp that White people like myself are South African

edon21:

Bro you are good with evasive maneuvers but luckily I am a sharp shooter too.
Again. If we agree that Nash is South African ( Federer is not, he has a Swiss father) . Do you also agree that Nigeria has more sports stars representing other nations than South Africa??
I want a short answer , yes or no

If Federer, Chris Froom and Steven Nash are South African then you can have Anthony Joshua

forgiveness:
Why d ado?

You only won Rugby and golf. I

And in cricket we won the Champions trophy which is statistically more difficult to win than the world cup, as it only includes the 8 best teams in the world!!

forgiveness:
He is Swiss born in Switzerland to a Swiss father.

And his mother is an Afrikaner Born in South Africa.....he also holds a South African passport.

But hey I never claimed Federer, all Im saying is if you guys are going to claim the Likes of Anthony Joshua then Im claiming Roger Federer, Chris Froom, Steven Nash ect ect are South African

forgiveness:
Cricket world cup, did you win it?

Nope

forgiveness:
He was a settler in South Africa. A native of oyinbo.

Im not going to have this racist discussion with you!

forgiveness:
Did you sing it with him?

HE IS NIGERIAN.

Then Federer is South African

edon21:
even if. we believe . You must agree that Nigeria has more sport stars representing other nations than South Africa

Well they are not Nigerian if they represent other countries!

edon21:
U know that Federer ain't South African. His father's a Swiss. What does African tradition state?

What about Henry Adetokunboh Akinwande, Anthony Joshua and the rest you claim as Nigerian? They were also not born in Nigeria?

edon21:
but are they Nigerians? yes or no?

No they are not otherwise Federer and Steven Nash are also South African?

forgiveness:
What did you win in Cricket at the highest level?

The Champions League as well as being statistically the best ODI Team in history, second best test side in history and second best T20 side in history!

edon21:
but they are Nigerians. Aren't they

No? They are representing other countries bro!

edon21:
If you claim Federer, then I guess we should claim all these people and even more

Except we don't claim Federer .........

forgiveness:
Why don't you tell him that?

I don't have to tell him that.....the fact that he sings God save the Queen before every fight is proof enough

Of South Africans and 4 other countries. Outside that, nobody know him.


Global Fan Base and Audience: The fan base of Cricket is limited to some countries. It is not a major sport in the US, most of Europe and Africa. However, some of the biggest countries in the world play this sport. Overall, with about 2 to 3 billion fans, cricket has the 2nd highest number of fans in the world.

55 million

forgiveness:
Born in England determines citizenship?

He said it in the face of QUEEN OF ENGLAND, "I AM NIGERIAN". EOD

No but the fact that he boxes under the British flag does!

forgiveness:
Only South Africans and people from 4 other countries know him.

55 million boy!!

forgiveness:
Anthony Joshua.

He boxes under the British Flag and he was born in England not Nigeria

obaaderemi:
More divided than any other country on earth. It's an embarrassment indeed. How can blacks be so backward in South Africa while the settlers enjoy the fat of the land? But I put like 60% of the blame on the blacks. They need to know that in life you fight for what you want.

Black SAns earn nearly 3 times more than your average Nigerian, are twice as wealthy as your average Nigerian, drive more cars per capita than your average Nigerian....... And the poverty rate amongst black South Africans is 21% vs 56% for Nigeria.

So if Black SAns are backwards then where does that leave Nigerians?

obaaderemi:
second with Australia. 3rd overall.
Why, they stopped being majors long ago. But there are three majors older than the Masters. Aren't there?

Thats all I needed to know

Also when did they stop being majors? I mean surely we can't just disregard them like that?

obaaderemi:
You obviously didn't know you tied with Australia or you wouldn't have said you are second to US.

You said golf majors, man. Do you want me to find your post for you?!!!
The majors of golf didn't start with the Masters', which began in 1934.They started much earlier. No true follower of golf would talk the way you talk about the majors. They are,all very important to avid followers of golf and its history. Baba, you goofed.

I did know we were tied with Aus and we are second in terms of number of world cups are we not?

Are the US Amateurs and UK Amateurs still majors?

forgiveness:
Nigeria is number one in Boxing.

uhm no

forgiveness:
Nobody knows him.

besides his 55 million Instagram followers...
