25 men couldn't kill him ,he flattened 6 huge bouncers,never beaten.........give me a break the greatest "Gypsy" fighter in history countless big fights at prominent locations all over the UK for decades and not one ...not one single photo or piece of film footage of ANY fight he has ever been seen.An old guy once told me years ago when the topic of legends came up he asked me do you know what happened to the world's greatest parachutist ? i replied no he said" his bloody parachute never opened" This legend is like the boxing record of Big John Fury according to him he can beat any man unfortunately his record shows something completely different .Legends are made up around bars and camp fires ...they keep getting bigger and better all the time and are far from the truth.Neither Bartley nor "big John" would last 5 minutes in the ring at the Kronk gym
@@martinparker5548 man you have really drank the Kool aid once again there is zero verifiable evidence of anything he supposedly did apart from rumours,tales and gossip the fighters at kronk gym are certified world,national and state champions saying Bartley could beat them is like saying someone who hits a tennis ball against the wall as a past time can beat Novak Djokovic not logic at all my friend but keep on believing the unproven unverified myth
@@MFFMPN so there was no photos or film footage on anything for all those years before cell phones came along ? No one took a camera anywhere for any events....does not stack up my friend at all
Although these stories and recollection of the events can be wildly exaggerated and sometimes fabricated to strengthen a reputation! (We all do it)! And the “fact”all of these guys are somehow undefeated despite all claiming to have bested each other on several occasions! he is without a doubt one of the toughest people to ever live! I can only imagine what it would be like facing up this man in a rough and tumble….terrifying comes to mind!
thank you ive been waiting for someone to do one of these on my favourite of all time bartley gorman,coulda used a bit bettermusic in my opinion,but still gladu made it.
@@JONOSEMTEXHe is right but I chose not to include it in the video because I agree they sound absolutely nothing alike and it would be doing a disservice to Bartley😂😂
I watched a documentary about the travelling community and the traditions of the old days compared to the new generation and how it’s changed,it was very interesting! Gypsy Way or something like that, it was years ago. But one name was mentioned by all Dan _______ is all I remember, a massive man black hair! it shows a bit of a fight with another person but I can’t remember the name. It was in Ireland or Northern Ireland I believe. Not sure how he compares to the guys mentioned here but I’d be interested in watching a video on more of this 👍
As a Londoner that’s been part of the fight scene a while….these “Gypsy” legends never make sense to me. There’s never any footage or substance. I’m sure he was a tough fella and could take men down but the fights against Lenny McLean & Gary Shaw never happened? You have to ask why…Plenty of footage of both Lenny & Gary….also Tyson Fury’s dad….no footage of his 100 hundred unbeaten fights on the “ard road”…only images of him getting sparked in the pro. ring. He calls out everyone under the sun but fights nought. There’s a lot of bollox with these traveller legends….just saying. 🤷
Belive me there was hard Irish travllers . Lenny and Roy shaw would of be afraid of the Irish back then . If ur from London you know the Irish had a big say in the underworld. The IRA were makeing money back then to fund the war . Big Lenny wad hard in a fight . But he be killed in Dublin .
Here are some other things Bartley did but unfortunately the are no photos or film footage of 1. built the Battersea power station by himself over a holiday weekend 2. Played Lead guitar and vocals for Led Zeppelin and wrote stairway to heaven 3.Defeated Field Marshall Rommel in the Western Desert with a pellet gun and an plastic ice cream tub for a helmet 4. Developed Stoicism as a philosophical belief system 6 .Played principal lead male dancer in the Bolshoi Ballets finest version of Swan Lake 7.Piloted the Apollo lunar expedition landing craft and was first man to walk on the moon. Listen folks if you believe ANYTHING a traveler tells you then you deserve what you get ..oh and by the way i have a horse i just bought from the knacker's yard i guarantee will win the Grand National i will sell it to you for 20 quid
Self proclaimed Legend theres footage of Lenny. Shaw and all the other bare knuckle fighters but this mong and no one outside his group mention him ever the nan was a jackanory tell a story
The surname "Gorman" is of Irish origin. It is an anglicized form of the Irish "Ó Gormáin," which means "descendant of Gormán." The name "Gormán" itself is derived from the Irish word "gorm," meaning "blue" or "dark-skinned," which was a common descriptive name.
His biography is a fantastic read, as a dyslexic I don't find reading easy but I finished that book so fast.
it is also available in audio book on audible if you use it. Good listen.
Awesome narrative, Thanks
A true nan of honour and integrity.
May he rest in peace...🙏❤️
Just finished reading hes book last week whilst on holiday , loved it 💪🏼
Amazing!
His favourite fighters where rocky Marciano n Hughie Burton .big just. These are tough guys , super tough in fact. Bartley was no bull shit er . ❤
Bad arse video mate
To the toughest man in the world one day you will cease to be and then you will kneel before the hardest man GOD
why can’t you invisible best friend types crawl back under your rocks of ignorance.
Shut the hell up
God is not a man
Best book I ever read.
A man made of pure steel. Hard as nails.

😂😂😂😂Away man this is that mungo from the goonies.. Couldn't fight sleep ffs 🙄
And not one person from that gym would last 2 minutes in a field with bartley

Yeah because everyone carried a mobile phone or video camera around with them on those days didn't they??😂😂😂

Glad you enjoyed it and appreciate the feedback 🙏🏼
on a side note..Tom Hardy said that the voice he created for his Bane character was inspired by Bartley..
@@stuartgyves1379doubt it lol they sound absolutely f all a like Bane sounds like a posh English man & Bartley Irish 😆
@@JONOSEMTEXHe is right but I chose not to include it in the video because I agree they sound absolutely nothing alike and it would be doing a disservice to Bartley😂😂
@@DarkSleuthSecrets thats hilarious,good choice keeping prettyboy out of it.
Always be my hero opinions vary bartley was a machine 💯💯🥊❤️
God bless you Bartley
I'm here after Tom Hardy said this man inspired his Bane voice
I watched a documentary about the travelling community and the traditions of the old days compared to the new generation and how it’s changed,it was very interesting!

Dan Rooney is his name Rooney v mcginley is the fight you are taking about
Lenny McLean and Roy Shaw wouldn't fight him and shaws words were why enter a fight you cannot win pure legend a great man
Some wromg information in this video when he came to doncaster to fight Bob gaskin
How can you win a fight without landing a fist that makes as much sense as I do
Some bad derpy AI fails in this xD
I do not understand how king of the tinkers gets classed as gypsy? Listen when I tell you no tinkers are gypsy

“Why let the truth get in the way of a good story”
Belive me there was hard Irish travllers . Lenny and Roy shaw would of be afraid of the Irish back then . If ur from London you know the Irish had a big say in the underworld. The IRA were makeing money back then to fund the war . Big Lenny wad hard in a fight . But he be killed in Dublin .
There wasent a lot of footage of any underground fight back then. You had to be there. Bartley was a hardcore motherfucker.
My uncle was mates with Bartley, I’m in the same town as bartey lived and died in, he was the real deal make no mistake
It doesn't matter who he is what matters is his plan.
No one care who he was till we watched Tom Hardys Bane.
Tommy fury is the hard mean man in the family he can now knock the bedroom light out and sleep in the dark
Here are some other things Bartley did but unfortunately the are no photos or film footage of
1. built the Battersea power station by himself over a holiday weekend
2. Played Lead guitar and vocals for Led Zeppelin and wrote stairway to heaven
3.Defeated Field Marshall Rommel in the Western Desert with a pellet gun and an plastic ice cream tub for a helmet

Jealousy? Let me guess.. you would have beaten him?
The man is rough... Real man

had a few "draws"
No footage of these fights? 😂
