Bearing in mind the folklore that swirls around Lenny McLean & how Cliff Field sparked him, as you say, you’d think Cliff would have a much higher profile. He sounds a mysterious & fascinating man.
I think the difference in character s Was that cliff was a quiet man and was Naturally good I think Lenny was a load character who I think due to he’s bad child hood was saying I’ll let you know I’m here so you’ll leave me alone type character.. thanks Martin support
Enjoyed that. Apart from being a fabulous boxer, Muhammad Ali was a lovely guy. There are numerous stories of him slipping complete strangers who were down on their luck substantial sums of money. I think someone asked him why he did this? He replied it might be me one day who needs a helping hand..I think it was Larry Holmes who said Ali would give you the shirt off his back. I used to write to him when l was a youngster and he always replied with signed memorabilia. He loved Brits and if they turned up at his ranch in America , in the hope of getting a photo or autograph, he would invite them in to eat with him. As you said, the greatest!
Of course I was meant to say rumble in the jungle .. and streets of Huston .. ex fighters syndrome I guess or old age 😀 well spotted though 🤙. Silly old amateur journalist me

Cliff used to walk past my brother's shop in Dunstable looked like a down and out pity my brother's partner didn't know he's passed they were a notorious family themselves
Yes mate Richard won by tko I believe it was cutts .. Richard still doing well that’s great to hear I watched some of he’s interviews about he’s fight with Ali .. he seems like a really honest likeable bloke 🤙? Which part of the country are you
Cushty one Joe ask big John does he remember wen he used to climb on boyed and Niki's Paul's shoulders to do the windows and roofs LOL. Bare in mind they was chavvys and he was 18 stone and 6ft 3 😂👍

Fields beaten by RIchard Dunne in a pro ring 3 or 4 rounds.....Dunne beaten by Ali in 5,levels,good luck
Was it not cutts though mate that ended that fight Prematurely ???
Cliff was a gent. My Dad used to drink with him in Hemel and Dunstable.
Not a pretender.. I’d say

Yes I didn’t know cliff but obviously left a great impression.. but we still have so much of ali to view and hold on to 🤙
Foreman was from Texas, and he fought Ali in the Rumble In The Jungle.

Great story Joe,did Cliff Field ever fight Richard Dumb,have might Richard great guy will ask him if i get chance again
Yes mate Richard won by tko I believe it was cutts .. Richard still doing well that’s great to hear I watched some of he’s interviews about he’s fight with Ali .. he seems like a really honest likeable bloke 🤙? Which part of the country are you

I would have thought that was back to front . Going to ask him later 😀
Cliff fields was an ex pro ! Lenny was the the best street fighter ,his record proves it !!
Possibly so he’s stile was to go like a nut case and not everyone would be able to run with that 🤙
Yes Joe how ya keeping !? Ali was the best ever I agree & Lenny Mc was probably the best non gypsy unlicensed boxer !! Keep well n be good to catch up soon brother
