Lenny McLean, Door Work, John Fury, Bodybuilding: Micky Theo

Поділитися
Вставка
  • Опубліковано 30 бер 2024
  • He started weight training at 15 years old, and by 21 was competing, and then doing the doors, becoming close friends with, and sparring with Lenny McLean, and later went on to own his own bars and clubs.
    5 years ago he challenged John Fury to a charity fight after John's proclamation that he was tougher than any 54 year old man on the planet.
    Now 60, with a lifetime of training under his belt, and in better shape than most 20 year olds, Micky Theo reissues that challenge one last time (in words that aren't minced!) in the hope that John Fury will finally answer the call.

    If you watched to the end you’ll hear Mick talks about his gym trying to rehabilitate the youth and pull them away from violent crime and for me that’s worthy or respect, as most sit back, do nothing and wait until they read about it in the news! - men will always fight, but please put the knives down!!!!!
    If you enjoy these conversations, please remember to like & subscribe to the channel.. Thanks for watching 🙏🏼

    • @seanscanlon9067
      @seanscanlon9067 Місяць тому

      Legend, really?
      That word is thrown about far too easily these days and that is said with nothing against Mick Theo personally. I was into weight training as a kid and used to buy Bodybuilding Monthly magazine because it featured more UK bodybuilders than American ones, which being from south east London myself, I could identify with more.
      I even followed an abbreviated routine once that Mick Theo did when the magazine listed his training workout when doing an article on him. The only other thing I remember about him from the magazine and that era was when he walked off stage, throwing his trophy away after he was presented with it because he did not win. I did know about him working the doors and the Lenny McClean connection and had heard the broken ribs story too.
      Then when his name first reappeared a few years back regarding fighting John Fury, everyone seemed to be calling him Micky rather than Mick and I was not sure at first if it was the same bloke, because I had not heard anything about him for decades and it sounded strange to me like suddenly saying Micky Fleetwood, Micky Hucknall or Micky Jagger.

    Liam, after watching your initial podcasts, I must admit that I initially thought, "I've seen this countless times before; it will last for a while and then fade away." This perception arose whether it was in notorious countries or through social media, and it seemed to be more about self-promotion rather than active listening and taking responsibility at times. However, with these latest podcasts, I found it to be more productive, engaging the audience effectively, posing insightful questions rather than average ones, and exuding confidence in asking the right questions. Keep up the excellent work.
