Hopefully its not a couple of fights too late.....time will tell. Gave it a good crack but didnt quite get there......thats sport for the vast majority of us im afraid.......time to move on.

So I'm right, thought so. It's not hard to fathom he was on them in that fight where the gypsy nutted him. Lennie took that days version of Clenbuterol for weight loss a few times.....beyond that i would be 99% sure in saying he never did a bulk cycle,ever....he wouldnt of known how to i remember the old agent Alex Steene pulling up outside the Beckett and The Peacock,The Henry Cooper all the big gyms regularly and selling gear out the back of his motor nobody really knew what they was buying or even how to take it the understanding of cycling gear just wasnt around boxing gyms at that time.

Probably.....but he would of come a damn sight closer to beating him that Pacquiao did................ whether Khan had the ability to beat Mayweather im not sure but he definately had the style to.

Ive always loved that line.......and so true. Bless your heart Walshie.....bollocks to all the macho shit its refreshing sometimes to hear the affection that a pure friendship brings.

I remember seeing Khan fight for the first time and thought he was one of the most balanced young boxers I had seen and I have alway rated him in fact I would go as far to say and have said it for a long time he has the style to beat may weather But I think he would struggle with pacquiao ....just my opinion Couldnt agree more Mik......i remember people laughing at me for saying he would become a world champion.....they said with a chin like that he wouldnt go nowhere.....like yourself probably,i was sitting patiently waiting for what odds the bookies would have him to beat Mayweather !

Im probably guilty of burying my head in the sand but i just cant read these type of articles its bad for the blood pressure !
-
Thats a fair shout......bit of a quiet man Scott as i remember so not sure he could muster up the type of fire and energy Lennie had.....but then im not sure anyone could.

I dont think theres any actor around today that could play the part and do it justice,the closest ive seen who used to get a mention was Craig Fairbrass simply because he had the size,he was from the manor and seeing him in other films he had a bit of menace to him........the wrong casting could be hilarious !

I never saw anyone even come close to handling Lennie on doors,he would always get lads trying to make a name for themself but most times a simple growl or stare was enough......he was 10 or 12 years older than me so i never saw him fight on the cobbles in his prime but saw him several times over Wanstead Flats and a couple of times in fights out the back of his cousins yard and it was never pleasant to watch i suppose 2 or 3 minutes was as much as most people could take before either being ironed out or saying enough. As for steroids he wouldnt of known what to do with them he just had a

No idea mate i dont really know who he is or anything about him to be honest. As for the lads talking about Lennies fights with Roy Shaw thats where you can gauge Lennies level with gloves on as Roy Shaw was a good little welterweight back in his earlier years........outside of a boxing ring Lennie would of made a mess of him in short order.
-
i reckon you'd take him kenfu, all camoed up he wouldn't stand a chance lololol, who da feck does gnasher not know? I know hardly anyone north of Watford but folk in the same game in the same area its hard not to know.......is it my fault the area has had so much fighting talent
-
Wouldnt say i knew him personally he was a different generation from me i just spent a few years with a silly dickie bow wrapped round my neck talking bollocks with him a few nights a week.....most half decent heavyweight pros would of dealt with Lennie quite comfortably as he simply wasnt a boxer i dont think he ever threw a jab in his life he thought the jab was pointless..... he fought with far too much rage and aggression to be a boxer and just wasnt dedicated enough he was an old school hard man who loved a tear up he didnt like running and training he would spar himself into condition wh

Like most people i thought they would of fallen by the wayside by now but on that performance yesterday their fans would have to be dissapointed if they didnt get at least a champions league spot,i still cant see them winning the league but its been a remarkable season for them and as has been said playing football the right way as well.
-
Good post that i agree Mexicans seem to have that durability and ruggedness you dont often see athletically gifted Mexican fighters i think their culture demands machismo in preference to skill sets.....i remember the late great Salvador Sanchez as brilliant as he was he wasnt as popular as fighters like Chavez or Ruben Olivares simply because he wasnt as physically tough as they were.

You need a sence of humor transplant gnash Not at all ive enjoyed watching a lot of comedians over the years.......i just dont find swear words and outrageousness particularly funny,that schoolboy humour doesnt really do it for me.
-
Much as ive tried i just cant find anything funny about the geezer at all.
-
Ive never been able to get that interested in much below lightweight but Naz was just one of those naturally destructive punchers.....apart from that i dont know that much about him in all honesty.
-
In all fairness mate lifting rocks up every day is no real comparison to getting punched in the head every day Do pro boxers spar everyday ? It was a figure of speech....but im sure you understand what im getting at

The first pay per view fight was The Thriller in Manilla 1975......if im not wrong the first Uk pay per view was Tyson v Bruno in 96.....even though Naz was the biggest name...............love him or hate him he was a British boxing sensation.

I would have said the majority of the posts on here were very positive toward Frank but, no different to any other celebrity, if you put yourself out there then dont expect an easy ride... It goes with the job. In fairness to ol Frank he didnt put himself out there he had national newspapers and media crews camped outside his house over what were very personal health issues.......ok he has since been led down that path but he,s never been a media whore like some of these " celebrities ".
-
Just shows he did right all along holding out for such a big fight......of course he,s going to chase the big money fights he,s a big name fighter.....a choice between a huge worldwide event against Alvarez and a big domestic fight with Brook is a no brainer.......should catchweight fights like this be made at all....no not in my opinion.....will Khan beat him....no not in my opinion the size difference will be far too much........whether or not Khan is a nice young man who really cares he,s a fighter not our friend.
