Great man Dan Rooney..quiet..humble..respectful and would rather walk away from all the shite..later on in life found The Lord..best wishes Big Dan ☘ 🙏
He actually has a very calm air about him and comes across like a gentleman and a great fighter,old school traveller.....Not like the knobs today that just come across worse then mules 😖
Dan Rooney comes across as a gentleman. The type who wouldn’t go looking for a fight & not the type to talk bad about people behind their backs. The other fella is a big mouth though. I’ve seen him on other videos yapping away 🤦♂️
@@theduke8362 Yes and who could even disagree ? Bartley would quickly have had Mcginley begging for mercy, he would have given him such a knockout that Mcginley would be praying for as early an exit as possible !!! 😂😂😂
@@theduke8362 Bartley would have so demoralised and traumatised Aney that at the first sight of Bartley’s bullhammer Aney would have closed his eyes, said a holy prayer to mary, got dropped like a horse, maybe a smashed cheekbone/jaw etc, and then he would lay down on his back and pretend to be asleep if he wasn’t put to sleep already ! 😂😂😂
Dan Rooney is the finest Travelling man to ever take off his coat for fight ! Film star looks, legitimate big man, chest like a barrel, and fists of stone, the man beat Joe Joyce and Aney Mcginley among others and was the true King of the Travellers ! Bartley Gorman in England was the only man who had half a hope of beating him, Dan went looking for him in London, yes Bartley beat his brother John but Dan was the top man of the Rooney brothers and that would have been one epic fight between them, shame it never happened but my money would always have been on Dan Rooney the best Traveller fighting man at least of modern times and if not of all time !
Can some one exain the difference between then and now for me please . - why the public interest and respect . What has changeged ? And dont say the rubish and tresspassing - this wasnt that long ago .
It was a draw you can't claim a win if the other man breaks his leg by accident. Dan Rooney and big Joe agree to leave it a draw. Get your facts, right?
And who cares if he did make a bit of money or a lot of money from the fight ? Professional boxers get paid so why not these guys ? A fighter is a fighter at the end of the day wether professional or otherwise !
None then ask dan for rematch he gave ainey and joe a lesson but ainey got out of there fast after it csuse he jnew he was bet but arrived 3 days before in crossmaglen going around bragging im gking to this and that to dan and going around bragging and shadow boxing in local pubs he run to van to get out there like a cowardly sheepdog dan gave him not only a hiding in front of 1500 people ainey and joe knows deep down dan gave both them a lesson reason joe and ainey never ask for a rematch aswell both wont admitt it cause they not real men good for notting gets all these notions and making tapes after beating the wife 10 minutes before that
Lol that’s why Dan stayed in his hometown square for at least two hours after Mcginley hightailed it out of dodge as soon as the fight came to an end, he ran like a sheepdog so he did !
Lmao.Aney still goes about claiming he's a King.The people decide who the winner was and the majority said it was Dan Rooney like myself.Even old Joe Joyce beat him in the woods,punched the face of him for the age they were.Only brain dead backwards people like Aney McGinley goes on the way he does.So in my honest humble opinion,your talking shite!!!
I've known Dan all my lifetime not has fighter but has a preacher an absolute gentleman
is he a man of god? im a new christian. 18 months in.

Best commentary in fighting history.
The eye of the tiger the eye of the tiger 🤣🤣🤣👍
new the fellow when he lived in luton proper nice quite man
Top man
Does any one have paddy Doherty fights recorded
Todays Knackers should take a leaf from Dans book.
Shakey Aney,that's the most he done was shaking and dropping the shoulders.
I remember this fight year's ago in 1990 ....This was the fight of the century for the "traveller community".
Dan’s brother John once said after loosing to Bartley Gorman that Bartley would eat mcginley and spew him up again.
Your showing your age.

Joe Joyce beat him
Bartley would have murdered him fact mate
@@johnmcknnazie7573 he did not.
Rooney knocked Big Joe out.
@@jonathanwhite6440 I have read Bartley's book and he was wary of Big Dan.
@@jakenconor Dan beat Big Joe by breaking his leg with a punch.
Aney run like he boys do
I never seen him , you know what I mean
Dans a preacher now
Can some one exain the difference between then and now for me please . - why the public interest and respect . What has changeged ? And dont say the rubish and tresspassing - this wasnt that long ago .
Did Dan ever fight Big Joe joyce
Dan beat him
Dan won! broke Big Joe's leg with a ferocious punch.
It was a draw you can't claim a win if the other man breaks his leg by accident. Dan Rooney and big Joe agree to leave it a draw. Get your facts, right?
Bk wen u didnt have shake hands fairplay men 🤔
Are they brothers??
Cousins I think.
Hand managed by his brother who tapped his arm when he was on the verge of admitting he made a packet on fighting
That’s his cousin
And who cares if he did make a bit of money or a lot of money from the fight ? Professional boxers get paid so why not these guys ? A fighter is a fighter at the end of the day wether professional or otherwise !
@@mattevans923 his cousin and his brother 👍
@@mattevans923 i dont... But thevfella sat beside him sure wanted it kept quiet
@@mattevans923 exactly 💯
Is he big paul joyces father
No.
Paul joyce wishes 😂

Still see the beating old Aney gave him. Shook him so bad Dan ran off to the church
Short ankles aney beat nobody
Anney got hammered
What fight was that!? The only fight I've seen of them it looked like Dan was getting the better.
@@kingston2411😂😂😂😂😂
Dan got beat by Mcginley Look at him his brain is gone. Never recovered from the fight
Dan is a quite man and beware of the quite ones two serious men to box but Dan was to strong best bareknuckle fight ever
@Matt Malone
You're .
Oh the irony is strong
Lol that’s why Dan stayed in his hometown square for at least two hours after Mcginley hightailed it out of dodge as soon as the fight came to an end, he ran like a sheepdog so he did !
@Matt Malone Course he was, milking Rooney’s prostate.
