THE Don Spaghetti & Ravioli my old man came from old street and told me loads of stories about Lenny yes he did have plenty of fights on the cobbles my uncle lost £100 to him decent money back then
My dad met him in the late seventies! My dad was a doorman on scotswood road in Newcastle and said he was the only man that ever intimidated him without even trying to. Rip len.
He's right though. In the moment you can't hold back or hesitate but once it's done it's done. He only means hate for the brief window of time to fight and for a genuine purpose. Protection of family, etc
whatever mann Hard men don't suddenly get to 25 and decide they are too grown up for fighting. They are fighters and always will be. They are what they are. Yeah he lacked bottle Lenny. I mean he daren't fight a pro with gloves on with all the rules and regulations. Instead he just had gloveless all in anything goes fights against people willing to bite his ear off and kick him in the head. Apparently he even went to the US and fought the mafias top guy. He was a street fighter. He never professed to be Rocky Marciano.
He gets his comeuppance at the end of this documentary, not from McLean and he doesn’t like it, I recorded it when it came on TV Iib the early nineties. It was called The ring from what I remember. The guy was a Guinness book of records member, amount of push-ups I think and had an an award for bravery as a martial artist , he saved a girl from either a beating or a sexual assault, He had an obsess with becoming famous. I’d love to see it again.
He's ex gangster, from Hackney London, he was also in the film LOCK STOCK, TWO SMOKIN BARRELS his street name was The govnor he taxed and beat up drug dealers aswel as being hired for protection by the Kray brothers and other celebrities Mike tyson and him be a great match to of seen
Here's a true story about lenny he took on the previous hardest gangster in London and claimed his title that he hold today the govnor someone previously had that title until lenny came about and challenged him to a fight 2x they had a fight and both lenny smashed him for that title called THE GOVNOR and that's where his journey began
@Scott Hotchkiss Died of cancer. His book The Guv'nor is a brilliant read. I leant it to a mate and never seen it again, he passed it to someone and so on and so on. I'm not even mad. It's a great book, buy it. The Guv'nor. Kenny McLean Brilliant read Peace
Reading his book, the beatings he took from his cowardly step dad turned him into the angry brawler. All in the up bringing. He could quite easily have been a teacher or an accountant. He had a tough upbringing either way he was an honest decent fella. Definitely gone too young. Rest in peace big guy.
He was also a violent bully who nearly killed his own friend .the book is his Take on himself ..others know him for being a bully .they were scared of him in his local pub for a reason. Violent men aren't something to look up to
Lenny died aged 48 .. what a tragedy .. he had so much to offer the world .. his career was just about to take off properly on the screen .. a master of many talents
Did you see that hand speed? -incredible. The raw agression and ability to use flash lighting quick violence made him a very tough man-and what a character-a very sharp , witty man.
3:10 "Son, there's me 'and. You've just bought a lovely motor" Errrm, no I, I, we didnt, I mean I'm not.... "Enjoy the motor son, how you gonna pay...??"
This dude would have become a famous film star in all films that needed a BA British hard man. Still can't believe he passed before his first gig in which he did great as the Baptist.
Today Little shits wouldn't know a real fight if they fell into one there all just horrible little cunts that can't n won't fight one on one coz they haven't got the balls heart or ability to.
The first time I saw Lenny was on ‘Lock Stock.....’. He looked like a lunatic, an absolute beast of a man. Imagine getting in to a fight with him. Fuck that.
The opening of this clip is great. Lenny massaging his calcified, war-torn weaponry. "Show me your hands. Not bad. Not as bad as mine, though." Mr. Mclean has a massive, calcified lump of a hand with chunky, arthritic fingers. The mark of a true fighter. Along with the cauliflower ear of grapplers. These are the marks of a tradesman. They are to be respected and exalted.
Simply awesome, love lenny, got all his books. Even here years after giving the fighting up, you can still see why nobody came close to him on the streets, he didn't just have the strength and power, he had the speed as well. RIP Len, and if you see my dear mother up there tell her i love her and i'll see her soon.
Nature doesnt work like that. You will more likely come back as an insect on some far away planet in a billion years as the molecules that form your consciousness once again come together, but with different DNA.
The guy interviewing Lenny looked so on edge. When Kenny started throwing pretend punches he looked quite worried. Credit to him though, I would've shat myself. It must've felt like standing in front of a fast moving articulated lorry. Lenny was one of a kind, a hard man amongst hard men, there'll never be another like him. The environments that bred these London hard men have gone and we're left with children carrying knives. People like Lenny would've eaten them for breakfast.
Lee Taylor frank warren the boxing promoter was related to lenny and one of the many people who described him as “a bully who could not stand up to people as tough or tougher than him”
This clip came from a peculiar documentary, circa 1995. The little bald guy was, as you can tell, trying to make it as a bare-knuckle fighter. He had already had an article about him in The Guardian, including photos taken at a fight, and the documentary featured a video of another of his fights that lasted all of 5 seconds. The climax was to be a fight with a particularly dangerous opponent in a barn in Ireland. But at the last minute the opponent cancelled. Little Bald Guy ended up fighting, and beating, a bloke who had come along to watch and offered to step in so his fellow audience members wouldn't be disappointed. This wasn't the end of the programme though, because the filmmakers noticed that someone pictured watching the fight featured in The Guardian article looked a heck of a lot like the 'dangerous' bloke who Little Bald Guy had intended to fight in the Irish barn. Little Bald Guy admitted that the whole thing was fake. The fight in The Guardian, the video of his five second fight, the scheduled fight in the barn - all had been set up by him to, well, get some fame I suppose (he had also been the world push-ups champion at one time). The one and only real fight he'd ever had was with the audience member who had nobly offered to step in at the last moment! I don't know how complicit the filmmakers were in the whole thing. Certainly the Guardian had been completely taken in by him and had assumed the fight they had attended and photographed was real.
Yes you're right! Very strange documentary remember it well. It was called Arena: The Ring, A South London Tale on BBC 2. Wanted to watch it again, but couldn't find it anywhere...
He smoked hand rolled cigs, no filter, throughout his life I believe. Died just a few years after this video from lung cancer. Cigarettes will age you hard and fast. Oh and not to mention being in something like 2000 bare knuckle fights.
I've had the privilege of reading Lenny McLeans Books many times over and over and Lennys well deserved title of THE GUV'NOR wasn't only because he was a true fighting machine. I never had the honour of meeting Lenny, but i do know that he was THE GUV'NOR for multiple reasons. Respected all over the world and respected for good reason. A true man, A true Warrior and A true Legend.
Bit late by years commenting on this but he was one strong huge man with speed ,I read his book around 15 years ago maybe bit more than that and only now appreciating how young he was really when he passed cos he died at 48 I believe and I'm now 49 and in shape and feel got years left yet .... hopefully
these days it's 10 lads tooled up against 1 the old school hard man days are over well in villages and towns hard men are still respected but were Lenny come from east end London it's all gangs 10 against one its a dirty world naw
Except McLean took out 9 guys outside a door he was running, using a leather billy-jack, then chucked it on a roof opposite before the police arrived to sweep them up, swearing to them that he had done them bare handed. From this he got the reputation as 'a ten man job', ie, if you wanted to stand a chance against him, you best turn up with no less than 9 friends to stand a chance.
My friends dad is pretty handy. Old school. A respectful man. He confronted a group of lads selling drugs outside a building he owned. He asked nicely them to leave. One of them took his shirt off. Asked him to fight. So of course. My mates dad knocked him and his mates about a bit. Next thing a kid comes round the corner on a bike shot him.
Read his book and super fascinated with these old school proper fella’s. Like Lenny, loved him Lock, Stock and believe he would’ve gone on to be a fantastic actor.
Lenny McLean and Tony Sirico are absolute legends. They might have been real life mobsters, but they were also very kind people once they left that life aside. Bless them both, I miss them so much.
What a beast of a man not only was he a great fighter but he was also a loving family man with respect haha he also seemed to be a funny chap I,d say if you stayed on the right side of him you probably would of seen dat in him lets not forget this man had a tough upbringing an he rose above it good on you len. RIP.
My step dad was in the army it's uncanny how much he looks like lenny. My step dad told me the same thing always keep fit and strong because you might need it one day.
I remember this when it came out he thought he could get by grappling. Lenny was the king of street fighting and unlicensed boxing absolute animal ,taken way too early.
i remember this documentry, the irish fella was ment to be starting out in the bear knuckle fighting, got mugged of at the end. great bit of footage of lenny,good quality vid, thanks for posting,
He gives that Andre Agassi dude some solid advice; "keep yourself in shape, make some money & get out of the game while you can" but my favourite is " HATE!! Hate, from here down to your ankles, HATE sooo much "
I grew up in canada but my grandpa Ernie McGrath talked and looked just like this guy. Would often say he was gonna "cut my blledin' eye out". He scared the shit out of me. He was a proper bo- bells hard man . Rip ernie
A proper hard bastard. Absolute beast. Not like these cowards who run around stabbing eachother.
Well fukin' said.

he was a fuckin loser... a 50 plus year old man talking about how hard he is.. pathetic really.. wouldve loved to of seen him take on a pro fighter
He was 49 when he died so how the fuck is he 50 plus, Your comment on him is the only pathetic thing i see here, You clearly don't have a clue.

Yeah he lacked bottle Lenny. I mean he daren't fight a pro with gloves on with all the rules and regulations. Instead he just had gloveless all in anything goes fights against people willing to bite his ear off and kick him in the head.
Apparently he even went to the US and fought the mafias top guy.
He was a street fighter. He never professed to be Rocky Marciano.

Iv heard that Lenny was the real bully in the home and his stepfather wasn’t the monster Lenny portrayed him to be.
ITS Only WHAT IV HEARD, not fact.
"His" book is right. Plenty of words out there about how he was far from the 'good man' he claimed to be.
First book I ever red very violent man died after making lock stock think it was brain cancer if I remember rightly 1998
I know we are all victims now but this doesn't mean much if you are on the end of Mr Angry's punches and bites.

What a beast of a man not only was he a great fighter but he was also a loving family man with respect haha he also seemed to be a funny chap I,d say if you stayed on the right side of him you probably would of seen dat in him lets not forget this man had a tough upbringing an he rose above it good on you len. RIP.
1:58 the bald guy needs his under pants changing.
😂😂😂
Lmaoo
DerbyFan Scott shit himself 🤔
hahaha, the chap was terrified the whole interview
Sure lol
My step dad was in the army it's uncanny how much he looks like lenny. My step dad told me the same thing always keep fit and strong because you might need it one day.
How quick was he ? Unbelievable speed for a big guy.
1:24 - the speed! And he’s not even in his prime at his stage!
Definitely a unique character I won't forget him
I remember this when it came out he thought he could get by grappling. Lenny was the king of street fighting and unlicensed boxing absolute animal ,taken way too early.
Legend his book the governor was so good i read it twice
I wouldnt expect that bloke interviewing him to understand
"Fftt fftt, fftt fftt...aRRHHH...ARRHHHH!!!"
"You're out the game, see thats how I would do it"
Lol
hahaha.
Hahahaha dude that was f*cking hilarious
Loved this film clip Lenny you talk good 👍👍
Love Lenn , he was real , met him as a little kid . In 76
RIP to a fighting legend. The guvnor
i remember this documentry, the irish fella was ment to be starting out in the bear knuckle fighting, got mugged of at the end.
great bit of footage of lenny,good quality vid, thanks for posting,
I remember too. He was an undercover reporter. Would love to watch the whole show again.
He gives that Andre Agassi dude some solid advice; "keep yourself in shape, make some money & get out of the game while you can" but my favourite is " HATE!! Hate, from here down to your ankles, HATE sooo much "
The man was legendary,and lightning quick. I bet that guy was crapping his self,very wise words of wisdom from the great man.
Great advice from a legend sadly not with us. R.I.P. Lenny.
When did he die
28 July 1998 mate.
lenny we need the likes of you now..god bless a real hard case
Lenny was a natural actor he could have had big movie career if he had survived!!
I grew up in canada but my grandpa Ernie McGrath talked and looked just like this guy. Would often say he was gonna "cut my blledin' eye out". He scared the shit out of me. He was a proper bo- bells hard man . Rip ernie
