Jesus Billy - John Conteh in you car, phenomenal. Grew up watching John’s fights in the 70s. What a great fella he is and your best catch to date without question.
John conteh was one of the greats, was my hero as a young lad. Met him after his mums Rachel's funeral, first time I've ever met him. Thought he was a proper gentleman.
This is what out society & culture used to be john conteh a hard working /fierce / humble / polite man and still is what an opportunity to speak to a great man like that 👏 👍
My Childhood Hero right there, and STILL to be honest! Fought and beat Heavyweights on the way up when he prob could have made Super Middle by todays standards. A TRUE Light Heavyweight Champion of the World. Made my day Bill, thanks.
I've met John several times he's an absolute diamond of a bloke ,proper gentleman .Should be more of a national treasure ,we don't see enough of him on the telly nowadays to be honest .
He's a true humble gentleman Billy. He's a great ambassador for Liverpool. I really can't say enough positive words about John Conteh. One of the finest boxers of his day. He's a very humble man. Topman!!!. Anyway thanks Billy. John. 🤔💯👍🥊
Great to see an absolute legend sitting next to you Bill. Loved watching JC on the telly when I was a kid growing up in the 70's. He's still a handsome Devil 🙂 Top marks fella.
Loved watching John conteh & Alan minter two great boxers but my favourite of all time has too be starvin marvin hagler What a machine great video billy moore
Brilliant this Billy. He made young scousers dream big and believe they could go all the way. What a guy, one of the best boxers to come out of Liverpool in my opinion. Speaks great, you should try and get him on for a full episode podcast.
My Dad loved watching John box in the 70s. Boxing was better back then. Today it’s all about finding an easy route to the top. Then it was about fighting the best man.
My childhood hero, imagine my surprise when John was a special guest judge in an triservice boxing competition many years ago while I was in the military, I'm from Liverpool. I bought him a drink and he sat with myself and some friends who had absolutely no idea who he was.
I worked in South London and I knew The Thomas Beckitt in the Old Kent Road . It was were Henry Cooper trained. They had a great support group for young people from the local area a great resource. Loved the video by the way Billy I met you at the corner of Williamson Square some months ago. Good to see how well you are getting on with your video's. All the Best.
John conteh a scouse legend I remember how proud me dad was when he won the world title as a scouser living in Birmingham . He’s right if you want to be the best you have to put the work in upmearly and out running . Thanks Billy
I remember watching you John my family thought you were great 👍 it reminds me of good old days when men were men and the fights were so brutal compared to days mob take it easy bill and good to see the liverpool legend on your show
Great stuff Billy I knew someone who lived in Kirby when John did he was so dedicated and always going to the gym as a youngster. He was a great fighter and an inspiration to young boxers, and a good after dinner speaker really funny.
Made my day seeing John conteh I remember my farther went to London when he won the light heavyweight championship of the world in 74 and he beat a very good champion. Liverpool has had some good fighters but conteh the best
In a city that hasn't produced that many world class boxers, John Conteh stands alone like a beacon. By miles the best boxer to come from that area and he speaks so well and is so modest. What a brilliant example for youngsters in all walks of life 👍
Wow, nice one Billy. John feared nobody in his day... He went to Freddie mercury,s House partying and he fell asleep in Freddie,s bed, the bouncers were too scared to move him. So Freddie whispers in John's ear... I am going to join you in bed!! John soon sobered up an flew out of the house, Freddie laughing his head as John runs out of the house. 😂
Wah!! Wasn't expecting that. John Conte? Whit a result. Great stuff, he seems such an honest and sound bloke, never put a foot wrong in that interview. Class act .
That was the best podcast interview Ive seen you do on here Bill… What an absolute LEGEND. He was my boxing hero as a kid! A real pleasure to listen to and considering he was a top level fighter who didn’t have all the modern day medical safety nets we have now… Im amazed how articulate he is and how fast his brain still is! Amazing man! 👊🏻
Wow!can't believe you got him on.Watched him win the world title when i was 7 had a poster of him on my wall blue shorts bandages.I loved John Conteh when i was a kid he was some fighter.Great to see him doing so well and so sharp minded.Superp vid Billy made my day.👍💙🙏
Don't half miss the old school Scousers and their way no ego in most of them but tough real men with no forced put on accent like most do now , legend 👍
Met the great John Conte in the Archway tavern nearly 40 year's ago, he was off his head talking rasta gibberish, I told him off that he was my hero and like him I was mixed race and how hard it was back then being different, anyway he changed his life and like to think I had a tiny part in his transformation who knows
Always been a massive boxing fan since I was a kid and John conte is the first boxer I remember growing up in the 70s wow he was something special fantastic bill keep up the great work your doing love watching your podcasts always Entertaining
John mbe you are a legend another of my childhood heroes and you look in amazing shape even now incredible and those days with superstar boxers are memories forever
Should be proud to have Conteh in your car. The most distinguished person you have had on the pod - well done.
Agreed. What a pleasure to see someone you admire. Dare I say..the scouse Ali? Yeah, he's that alright.
"The scouse Ali" is a very fitting title for John Conteh.
