that last fight where the crowd start on each other reminds me of a day i was stood at the back of a farm in cambridge working seconds for a fellow when it all went a little tits up. ended the day looking down the wrong end of a sawn off 12gage :icon_eek:

 

 

you see some good fights on ytube but alot are hand bags at 10 paces, best fights i saw were the fore runners to the mma stuff you see now, the old vale tudo fights from back in the 80s are much more brutal but also a lot more tecnqual. ;)

 

had a lot of those on video mole catcher ;)

 

I know not everyones a fan but i had a vid about Rickson gracie and his training for a vale tudo tournament. mans dedication is second to none.

Your right mate....i believe he beat mclean twice but it was before lenny really made a big name in them circles...id stick my neck out and say lenny mclean was an honest guy...his confidence could come across as arrogance but he was honest and admitted to several defeats,not sure he did in his books but like you say.....
