Undoubtedly some journalist asked him why he wasn't going, a reasonable thing to ask, and he answered it honestly: he tried it and didn't like it. I don't like New York City: spent a week there, some things were nice, but all in all, I don't care to go back.

Oh, and by the way, Britain does require documents for immigrants, even those from former Commonwealth countries. 'Elvis' would not be in Britain without having those in order. The trainer may not know the guy's proper name, but I'll bet his bookkeeper, who makes out the staff paychecks, knows it.
