gnasher16 30,121 Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 Some heavy punches them. Read his book a good read he was supposed to fight a fella up road from me bobby frankum but it never happened was arranged to fight on the car park of the ferry to france i think well worth a read if your into that thing bartley met ali ali introduced himself hello im mohammed ali king of the ring or sumit and bartley replyed im bartley king of the lanes I got to know Bobby back in the ,s he was a decent light heavyweight and a nice fella.....got banned by the bbboc for clumping a referee if i remember right. I find these " this one would beat this one " conversations a bit cringeworthy but seeing ol Lennie Mcleans name mentioned a few times he was a man who thinking back now i would of absolutely love to of seen have a scrap when in top condition......Lennie didnt know much about fitness he would go out running and lift some weights occasionally but he never prepared for a fight in his life he was a dangerous man regardless but with top condition on his back i think he would of been near unstoppable.
