Maybe not knighted but certainly recognised for their achievements, none of them have had the sustained level of top level success that Lewis has either. Not every sportsperson can get a knighthood/damehood but there's still plenty of examples who have, many of them achieving less in their careers than Lewis.
Not fighting for one for Joe Calzaghe but ranked as 7th all time greatest fighter ever. Went into a ring by himself not reliant on the best machine to get him through and came through every fight and retired unbeaten. If that is not maintaining a top level success throughout I don't know what is.

Touche. Does it come down to how the UK wish the world to see the UK? Home of great racing drivers or home of people who like to punch each other. TBH I used to enjoy boxing in the days of 'enry Cooper and Joe Bugner, Mohommed Ali and all. Is it me or has the whole sport lost it's more gentlemanly pugilistic side? Probably just theatre but that chosen theatre isn't very nice.
If you want fighting watch mma if you want boxing and study it as a sport that's a different thing. Ask the Ingles how many times their fighters actually got hit. Boxing isn't just about punching folk in the face the same as F1 isn't just about driving around a track
