I'd have no problem telling Dave courtney to his face, seems a bit of an clown really.
Apperantly all his stories about Reg Kray and so on were bollox or so I've heard.

McLean certainly could throw a proper punch! No doubt about that!

courtney is just a fookin grass
hahahah and as for his house "camelot" is much like him a fookin joke lol

my nan is more gangster than he is ffs

hell the police even pay for courtneys phone bill as he has refused to pay it from day one , and he knows the pigs will pay it for him anyway !!!

have a look round at some true gangsters and see what they say about him lol

i do also beleive he is currently serving porridge as we speak !!

as for lenny .....simple as i wouldnt fuck with him although there are a lot more bare knuckle fighters out there than him that would easily eat him alive



interesting website here http://www.bernardomahoney.com/rrmurders/main.shtml go to the message board and see what ppl think of courtney there lol

enjoy

I'm not convinced that hardened gangsters will really spend their time browsing a Ford Forum on the internet?! ......I never saw Tony Soprano browsing a Chevy Forum on Sopranos and that program was meant to be pretty realistic.

hey all im saying is that having read lots of books and a subject i find very intersting .have just formed my opinion !!!!!

i could alas be very wrong and am sure he is a nice chap really and i know he does gala,s etc for charity too!!! from his house

im just a normal guy ,no gangster and have opinions and as we were asked to discuss so i put my 2 p worth in thats all !!!

but cmon surely a bigtime gangster wouldnt pursue the spotlight for fame and want all that unwanted attention directed at him would he ????
^^^^^^
genuine question ??
all i can say anyone who can get one over on the po-po is ok with me

Dave courtenay sorted ronnie Krays funeral then shit on reggie by sneaking a tape recorder in on a visit and putting it on a documentry on tv which went against reggie when he was waiting for parole.Back in the day the Krays would have probably put a bullet in his head for that! Joking gangster,but did have a couple of saff cossies apparently!

Ive never thought much of courtney after i seen a doccumentary with him in it. Just wants everyone to think he is the real deal. The real ones are the ones that try stay out the limelight.

Im sure dave courtney isnt going to be hunting ppl down for what they write on a forum. if he is reading i think your a total pussy! As i said above the real hardmen are the ones that stay out the limelight or are in it for all the wrong reasons.You dont see any other hardmen posing with fake guns in a car mag with models!

I met Dave Courtney at an MMA event a couple of years ago and don't have a bad word to say about him. He wasn't acting the gangster with a big entourage, he had "people" with him, and he was with Jen and she was lovely too! They took time to speak to anyone that wanted to come and have a chat.

It looked like he'd recently had a run in as he was sporting a bit of a shiner and a massively bloodshot eye.

I think he's in Belmarsh at the moment for a firearms charge for some weapon that was banned a few years back.

I read lenny mcleans book, in his day he was literally the best in the boxing world, but he had to fight from the bottom to the top, he went from nobody to somebody the hard way. twats like courtney just live off other peoples reputation

They probably were iirc Jen is co-owner of a stage prop company, which is how he has access to a lot of de-activated firearms for use as props in photos.

No denying Lenny was one of the best if not the best. I'm not saying he was unbeatable as he was beaten a couple of times (was it Roy Shaw once & Lew Yates - correct me if i'm wrong as i'm not 100% sure) but to say that there are "lots" of bare knuckle fighters out there that would "easily eat him alive" is a little bit ill informed otherwise why could very few of them do it back in the day?

Johnny Waldron knocked him out twice, Roy Shaw beat him once...and someone else beat him too...think he lost 4 fights total but the Roy Shaw one Lenny argued was rigged.

Not at all...he's human like everyone else.

Noone really knows how many he lost I guess, unlicensed boxing doesnt exactly keep detailed records of fight history
