What a lovely. Bloke after 15years of brutality beatings bye screws. Years of. Solitary. And 5 years in Broadmoor. To. Come out the other side. Good on you Roy may god reserve u a place in heaven
Roy shaw and Lenny wer both hard bastards, why do we have to pick sides, they wer both solid stunch east Londoners.... RIP Roy, only found out today that he died.
i've just finished reading his book for the second time, do you know what happened to the plumber roy threw off the building, did he go back to his wife? shaw doesn't say anything more about it in the book
If any of you have ever read his book, the women that he mentions called Joan Greenaway/ Chippendale, that's my nan, and as far as I've been told by my dad, he used to visit my nan and looked up to her like a mother. Which I think is pretty awesome, and my step Uncle is Harry Starbuck, the gypsy bare knuckle boxer. Sadly I've never had any contacts with either of them.
love his book.just read tht. lou yates book who says it was a fix(his fight with shaw,tht gluxtad says it to in his book,anyone know if thier is any truth to these tales ?.
For those who say that boxers of this generation could beat them easily. Think about how much harder the times were back then. Back then people were tough. No rules. Shit was hardcore, raw death matches.
+shuan lee What makes him a "legend?" He was just a very basic man, and a crude limited brawler whose only real 'contribution' was to be very violent most of his life.
people are missing the point ,yeah lenny an roy were not good boxers ,but you certainly wouldnt mind either of 'em on your side in a street fight ....they were fantastic street brawlers
lenny was hard,bt roy was really hard...FACTS.roy was 42yrs old t lennys 27....roy..15st t lens 20odd...roy was 5ft 7in...lenny n most of shaws opposition were fking giants...roy said to lenny wen mac was retired lets av another do..lenny said fuck off were old men...shaw says..I WAS YOUR AGE NOW WHEN I FUCKIN BEAT YER...was lenny in tip-top shape in his mid-40s..sadly he was alreaady on his way out...i do like both men however in equal measure..
simon holi Lenny would have killed him no matter what. age difference or not. Lenny was the hardest man in the united kingdom. he'd even have beaten Charles bronson for breakfast and then Roy for dinner in there prime
Christopher Angus roy shaw was norman wizdom,and it's all fixed.they come up with actors and make them who they are because they own the miedia ,newspapers etc.its all scripted bs.
wrong, roy chalemged him dozens of times AFTER he lost to him, one of roy shaws friends was getting some hassle from lenny in a pub like when it was closing time lenny woulod refuse to leave he was an out right bully, he asked shaw to go in and have a word but when he actually went in the following saturday he wasnt there but word got out that roy was lookin for lenny and roy challenged him ,, smashing him to bits so bad he gave best to roy in the girst or 2md round i cnt remember
Lenny was tough but he was no Roy Shaw. You hear nothing about McLean's two first round KO losses, and you don't hear about him telling the ref to stop the fight in his first one with Roy. Roy would NEVER quit - he'd rather die. And his only losses were to McLean (no shame in that) not to mention Lenny had what, a fifteen year age advantage and about six or seven stone on Roy?
Agree.McLean reckoned he'd have beaten Ali . Those combovers were fooling no one.They were so unprofessional once someone went down that was it,punching them when they were down,and kicking! Obviously tough guys, but pro fighters, not even heavyweights would just pick them off.people on here go on about Shaw's fight with Ron Stander who fought Frazier as an example that he was a credible fighter, Roy even said that he only won due to Standers broken rib, and just pummeled it all fight....
Why did Roy Shaw dodge fights with Lew Yates, when he did finally fight him, the fight was fixed so roy won. I have read pretty much all the books from all sides, they both hype themselves up and leave things out. Why do you have to insult people when its just a discussion. Plus if your calling someone "dumb" best to spell it correctly.......
@boomdazzler the true guvner who origannaly beat roy an was screwed over in the result is a good friend named lew yates please read up on him his books called wild thing
Lennys the fackin gavnaaaaaaa, the camera dont lie & shaw got owned twice real footage, the so called fight where shaw beat Lenny is nowhere to be found & i wander why
@ gian Franco. Yes they did in Roy's book he said he had to changed his name when he boxed professionally Implying that he was a boxer,. See the knowledge actually reading books gives you
Love watching Row Shaws interviews and listening to his stories, one in a million , RIP Mr Shaw
Congestive heart failure
Roy shaw very hard man god rest him 🙏
Roy is just hard. Always has been always will be.
A legend! His book is really worth a read.
Always preferred Roy to Lenny 👍🏻
RIP Roy a true mans man
rip roy shaw true legend
Great Fighter n Nice Fella Roy R.I.P mate
He was a brawler not a boxer. Rip Big Shaw!
Christ he could bang.RIP Roy..

Roy shaw and Lenny wer both hard bastards, why do we have to pick sides, they wer both solid stunch east Londoners.... RIP Roy, only found out today that he died.
Exactly mate too many bandwagon jumpers same with pro boxing today
@MIKEGROOME i red that book while i was in prison and its a good book
LEGEND RIP
All this shite Roy said was after Len died
rip roy
@RockedDom where can i get the documentary m8?
I chucked him out a pub in london, he never said a word, he knew better i guess
i've just finished reading his book for the second time, do you know what happened to the plumber roy threw off the building, did he go back to his wife? shaw doesn't say anything more about it in the book
WTF ? why slag Roy off? sure as hell he would have flattened most people in the ring of a similar age......

Today’s modern era no but a Tyson Ali etc he wouldn’t have a chance
sick he is
+shuan lee What makes him a "legend?" He was just a very basic man, and a crude limited brawler whose only real 'contribution' was to be very violent most of his life.
Tough man
@boomdazzler Lenny also got knocked out, by two different people does that mean he is not the govnor?
people are missing the point ,yeah lenny an roy were not good boxers ,but you certainly wouldnt mind either of 'em on your side in a street fight ....they were fantastic street brawlers

simon holi Lenny would have killed him no matter what. age difference or not. Lenny was the hardest man in the united kingdom. he'd even have beaten Charles bronson for breakfast and then Roy for dinner in there prime
all roy took was a couple of right handers and ended up in first row
Lenny fucked him up twice and that's facts noone made Roy fight Lenny haha
I love Lenny but everyone knows Bartley Gorman was the hardest man in Britain
Your avin a larf
Pity Thiers no footage of him beating Len first fight.
And that gluckstad
Good video though.
very good shape for a 76 year old :)
All fighters get owned at some time in there careeer, because they are fighters
One question ,How the feck did he get the name "Pretty Boy" ??? he was no Conteh lol
@boomdazzler get a documentary called Roy Shaw Brute Force and it'l tell you the whole real story
lennys the guvnor
You are probably right. But do you think it'd due to modern 'fighters' being armed up with steroids and amphetamines?
Allah is the Greatest
@beatrice110979 Their both long gone so whats the point in that remark?
Im not pretending to be anything.
he is getting old, but his spirit like a 17yearsold fighter
He is dead.
Christopher Angus roy shaw was norman wizdom,and it's all fixed.they come up with actors and make them who they are because they own the miedia ,newspapers etc.its all scripted bs.

Lyle Hill lenny batterd him twice mate not just beat him batterd him ok
@FallsHeavy1 roy shaw hard bastards

Does anyone know why Roy constantly licks his face ????
@spacehopperballs you wouldnt get on the wrong side of him from knowing lenny and roy your hiding behind a computer screen
Roy and Lenny were both monsters and would kick the shit out of you without a thought so I wouldn’t say they were nice guys to as tough as hell.
Na roy needed a reason lenny didn't lenny would bait youngsters to get em to start and break em to pieces seriously hurt kids
If they were that tough why didn''t they rise through the pro ranks?
Lenny Mclean did..
@boomdazzler He beat him once.
Why did Roy Shaw dodge fights with Lew Yates, when he did finally fight him, the fight was fixed so roy won. I have read pretty much all the books from all sides, they both hype themselves up and leave things out. Why do you have to insult people when its just a discussion. Plus if your calling someone "dumb" best to spell it correctly.......
I think Roy was feared because he was fearless , because looking by the way he boxes he hasn't got a clue !
My granma beat both of em.
and they loved it.
@boomdazzler the true guvner who origannaly beat roy an was screwed over in the result is a good friend named lew yates please read up on him his books called wild thing
roy was tiny...13st??? lenny was massive.
Lennys the fackin gavnaaaaaaa, the camera dont lie & shaw got owned twice real footage, the so called fight where shaw beat Lenny is nowhere to be found & i wander why
he's a fighter,noone ever said he was a 'boxer'
@ gian Franco. Yes they did in Roy's book he said he had to changed his name when he boxed professionally
Implying that he was a boxer,. See the knowledge actually reading books gives you
@@da90sReAlvloc there is a distinct difference in the Sport.... Tyson for instance is a good example of a "Fighter"
And lenny got done by kevin paddock. Roy lost to 1 man
leeny didny just beat him he knocked the living shit outta him!!!
Lenny Mclean totally embarrassed Roy Shaw twice admittedly there was a big age gap !
Cliff fields ko,d Lenny(the big girl) McLean twice
that fighting was laughable crap ! is this a comedy sketch ?!
Lee Venn he would’ve layed you the fuck out
The sh*te 'atmospheric' muzak contributes nothing to these clips.
Very slow jog, very short arms, terrible technique. Brawler not boxer. Lenny McClean he ain't. Lenny hardest Street fighter, again not a boxer.
Kevin Harvey-Austen I d of liked to of seen u square up to him u assehole stick to cleaning out toilets
