Lenny had stamina and fought over 300x against guys his size that could fight.
Lenny would beat Kimbo in a war.
I'd have to go with Lenny, too much experience and truely a hard manQuote:

The Guvnor would have steamrolled Kimbo in seconds:cool:
Kimbo has about 5-6 minutes of stamina before he totally gasses out, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIPMAmI_u_0
Lenny was one tough guy (Limited in fighting ability, but TOUGH) and would beat his ass into submission
U gotta go with Lenny on this 1,iv'e read his book the bloke was fighting everyday on doors,not to mention the 100s of bair knuckle fights.
Im really glad to see soo many people interested.Thanks:D
Here is the Man mountain of Lenny McLean
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnskujvT6wI

R.I.P GUV.

don't know too much about lenny maclean, but from what i saw, i godda go with kimbo based on strength.
Thanks for posting these,enjoyed them,I was going to mention Roy Shaw aswell,who I think beat Lenny once,think the fight u posted might have been the 2nd fight.I think Roy Shaw would have beaten Kimbo aswell.Kimbo had the power of the Internet to build his profile up,blokes like Roy Shaw and Lenny just had word of mouth,when men were men!!Quote:

In any sort of ranks pro or amatuer lenny would have had his ass handed to him in a boxing ring. He got knocked out by cliff fields who was by no means the next ali.
Lenny was decent on the cobbles but get real...Kimbo would own him in an MMA ring.
Here is Roy Shaw at his most powerful.A very hard man!RAW as their get!Their reckon he had fists the size of shovels.
I think he could have given Kimbo a run for his money,not as much as Lenny Mclean though.Lenny has the hight.

No he wouldn't he got sparked out when he fought professionally at boxing theres world of difference between unlicensed boxing and skillful professional boxers.Quote:

Lenny would never be a world boxing champ so long as he had a hole in his arse but on the cobbles he was the nastiest bastard you could never wish to meet.
got to be the guvnor would be evil to watch tho

R.I.P Lenny!
don't know if I get my say here...but all you who don't know about mclean and shaw....] psychos....whats the point in fighting with rules....mma is not quite real....ref steps in so theres no risk of death. all you people gotta think....when you go in the ring you risk your life.....mclean and shaw...the 2 best....real men who overcame their fears. read about their lives....not nice. bless em both
Never heard of this Lenny guy until a few days ago reading this thread.
He really looks to have been a psychotic, mean, miserable fuck, but fearless.
There's something almost heroic and inspiring about the way he lived his life. Disgustingly brutal and sometimes evil, but Shakespeare said "cowards die a thousand times before their death, while the valiant only taste of death but once".
I figure this McLean fella only died once his whole life.
