There’s a story to this footage. Ruby wax was being a little disrespectful . So when they went to a commercial break Lenny told her to behave herself or he’d put her over his knee and give her a little smack on the backside when the cameras were filming. True story.
I remember an anecdote regarding this interview in lennys book which made me spit my drink out laughing, he was getting annoyed at her cutting him off and making stupid jokes, so during the break he took her to one side and said something along the lines of "listen ere' you saucy fucker, any more of your lip and il put you over my knee and smack your arse in front of your entire audience". Haha, what a legend.
James Kid Sorry if I upset you telling you your hero is a bullshiter . But there are lots of other fighters out there you can fantasize over and imagine as your best mate, the only one he can really trust ,who understands him.
She treated him with contempt through the whole interview and I thought Lenny did very well to rise above it. The question about his hand made her look a bit silly and it's no surprise that she wasn't on the box for long. Nasty septic.
Dunno about contempt when she grabbed his hand talking about meat I think she was in awe of him and got abit wet she was fascinated by him why d ya think he got the interview in the first place
@@Cockney_East_Londoner deffo man who wasn't in awe of Len that kinda personality is 1ce in a life time absolute legend in and out of the fight game he was a gladiator hey
I'm listening to lennys book the gov'nor and he told Ruby if you keep being cheeky ill put you over my knee and that's why she's quiet lol get the book it's an amazing listen /read.. Love you lenny and Val RIP
He lost to those guys in a boxing ring. Lenny wasn't a boxer. They were boxers. So was Roy Shaw. He never lost on the cobbles, Street fighting. Where anything goes.
he didn't intimidate professional boxers. They beat the crap out of him, in the ring. A lot of it is killer instinct, mate. Professional boxers are natural born killers - they enjoy fighting, they enjoy getting hit, and they enjoy hurting people. Nothing scares them. I suspect McClean was the same. Not many people are like that though. It's not right to enjoy violence, and enjoy being hit. So guys like Lenny could intimidate everyday people. But not professional boxers - because they're just as vicious and tough as he was
He was an unlicensed boxer CJ M and won most of them. Lenny would take them apart in a street fight because he would do what he had to do whether it was biting a guys nose or ear off
@@mrkk4360 a lot of fighters of today are high level athletes now. And we’ll rounded fighters. Especially MMA fighters well rounded. But I think for the time. Lenny mclean was definitely one of the toughest guys. He talks about always keeping in shape. And ahead of his opponents so he was definitely game. Guy was a beast. And could have a row. No doubt. But a pro MMA fighter. Or boxer of a low level. Even amateur fighters of the same weight. Even lighter would have no problem. But Lenny is still legit. And hard for his time
I don't know, I was a naughty boy sometimes, my mum was firm but fair, she showed me love but also smacked me a few times and grabbed me by the ear when I misbehaved badly. It made me think twice about doing impulsive, bad things. I don't support abuse of course, however I also don't think smacking your kids is automatically bad. The truth is, it's complicated.
Last time Lenny told that story about the men shooting him it was 7 men not 9..not that it makes it any less 'mental' but it does make you wonder if he exaggerated slightly..Not that he really needed to exaggerate anything at allreally !
I've come to accept that 99% of these old school criminals can't help but exaggerate things when they recount them. Everyone's always trying to puff up their story. It doesn't look good and is just unnecessary.
Saint Edmund Smash the reds he got beat in the ring not on the street which is what the man says n if you think he worked the club's for 30,years roughly so his estimate of thousands of fights is pretty accurate especially back then when men had a fight not like the little shit bag gun n knife carriers today honestly take any MMA fighter n put him against this man in a alley or room n I know who walks out it's a different game on them streets
Who's penny he'd knock your head clean off your shoulders you internet bum. Apparently only 2 men stopped him 2 ex pro fighters another got best him on points that same man lost to Shaw who meclean destroyed. Where's the proof of this fights though? Why we're they not filmed like the others?
lenny was a hard nut but he was not the best like he claimed.The only reason everyone thinks that is because of what he wrote in his book, that and hype.There where better guys around at that time both on the cobbles and in the ring.Lenny was a well known liar although I'm not saying he was bad because a brilliant fighter just not the true guvnor.Whoever was the guvnor I don't know.
The marshal arts expert that spends hundreds of thousands a year in nutrition and the best training facilities money can buy vs an untrained street fighter that has to scrape for his family and coupd probaly sink 12 pints a larger in 60 minutes ??? No fucking shit. Thats like saying Ronaldo could score a goal against the 1962 Brazilian basketball team. Different sports different times apples and oranges!!!! Ya fucking muppet !!!
My left ear enjoyed this.
Brilliant comment lol
I know what you mean
Hahahaha
As did mine. I swapped over half way through so that my right ear didn't feel left out
A real man rip
Without doubt he has got to be the toughest looking human I've ever seen but he had good ethics and would never hurt the weak. His book is brilliant.

Apparently she was so rude to him that he threatened to give her a slap.
Looks in good shape there -

+Amber wat It was mostly made up he was a well known bullshiter . Lots of the other fighters talk about him
Bravery award goes to housecarl6 who is probably a well know bullshitter amongst friends, and i expect lots of other fighters talk about him too.

Great point about people’s perception of them as as animals when you have real disturbed behaviour.
I can’t seem to watch his videos anymore makes me sad because he’s passed ☹️
He’s been dead 22 years now Kareem, you need to start coming to terms with it mate
RIP Lenny McLean
He is funny as fuck 👌

Ruby was lost in this interview - Lenny terrified her .... ha ha ha ....
@randy palla HA ... true!
She was being very disrespectful. A woman can get away with it. If it were a man in her position, I think he would have been nursing his jaw.
She got the message.
his book was a great read but he didn't mention that he got beat twice by cliff fields and also Johnny Waldron.
Did he though did where are the fights ? Is it hear say it actually happen?
@@regkray9872 it’s well documented

“What do u think of the police?”
“Well, they’ve got a job to do, and I’ve got a job to do”
you just woudnt take lenny on iam 6ft 22 stone train every day and would defo NOT take Lenny on. Very powerfull man

Loveable? There are more Loveable saltwater crocodiles! The man was a bully!
He had a step father say no more
God bless

probably the scariest dude ever
Martyn Ford
He was gay
I'd love his attitude and power for just 10 minutes a day... some fkers around me would be delt!
I twatted him once in Tesco in Bermondsy. There was only one gingsters pastie on the shelf and he grabbed it .... Big mistake.
Am I the only one here in quarantine?
Audience laughing but Lenny isn't saying anything funny. His dead serious.
Wise words from the g'vnor

A real man rip
He dodged ray bang bang
Got a brave barber.
Good man
Would have loved to have seen him in the ring with Mohammed Ali or George foreman
Come on man he lost boxing matches against nobody’s. He wouldn’t have made it out the first round with a top level pro
Big len was in his late 30s here. Built like a brick shit house. But could tell he had a stressful hard upbringing. But loved his character.
‘Anyone who hits kids, they are bullies’
Tell that to everyone complaining about the anti-smacking ban because they can’t hit children anymore

Any shred of evidence??

Lenny comes across here as a thoughtful, intelligent man. Ruby Wax on the other hand comes across as a
disrespectful silly cow.
Ah 240p we meet again
He was a bully
Listen to what Frank Warren had to say
Could this recording get any worse ?
Danny Dyer would sort him out ...
What a bout. Media luvvie Lennie v Gay gangsta mad Ronnie Kray who liked 'Golden Boys'

That's not how Bartley himself put it in his book. But ok
Bartley also writes he doesn't believe mclean was afraid of him
did he ever fight bartley gorman?
Now he was hard, it would of been a right tear up 👊💪
Too big for bartley
Bartley was good but no chance against lenny
