    McLean met one of the Krays in the nick but that's about it really.

    Are they even connected? I would have thought McLean was a bit too young. I just stuck him in as a third person, the truth is who is going to mess with someone with the Krays?!

    Well there's always someone stronger, bigger, crazier.

    - Vitali Klitschko with his skills as a former kickboxer.
    - Sonny Liston...
    - Willie Pep is my trump card. A small, fast and elusive guy who can run away and call the police.

    Ha!

    If it's in Italy, bring in Roberto Cammarelle and he can just arrest your barfight opponents as a policeman.

    Though he might have some friction with Liston...

    Butterbean, Fenech and Duran. Total overkill, but hey.

    Butterbean to handle any outsized drunks, (he could hit, say what you will) and Duran and Fenech to take out the normal-sized guys.
    Your average pro lightweight would flatten any of us, let's be honest.
    And all three I doubt would be above using a broken bottle or pool cue either.

    Unless already mentioned, there’s Roy “Tiger”’Williams also, apparently scary enough to even intimidate fellow pugs Shavers and Holmes.
