A real hard man goes to work everyday and provides for his family.

Hard men don’t need to tell you they’re hard men. Wise words as always, Billy 👍

You're spot on Billy ..sick of listening to so called gangsters...you have been in the darkest of places , but you've come through it to be a better man.Respect

Billy I believe the real hard men. Are the one’s getting up day in day out supporting there families.

Finally!!! Someone talking some sense,...Your spot on! I can't understand why people glorify bullys, all I've ever heard about that Lee Duffy is what a legend he is😂 thanks for telling it like it really is👏

I learned a valuable lesson and I learned it in one take. I'm not cut out for prison, of any kind. Head wouldn't shut down. The way I took my own good advice about that is where it stopped. I didn't apply the same determination to something as serious and paid a different price. I have a cupple of book's inside my head that would make interesting reading but will go unwritten. Just another story in the longest story never told. Happy to come out relatively intact, a bit like yourself Bill.

Brian Cockerell has been living off the Lee Duffy fight story for the last 20 years guys literally done fuckall else 😂

You're absolutely bang on again, Billy. I hate the worship that lot get, the majority of them were nasty bullies. It's really worrying when you see teens and young men buying into that glorification. How about some non violent, non criminal heroes to help guide them, that should be the narrative getting pushed towards their demographic.

Brilliant as always Billy, I am a granddad now but always remember when I was a kid, being stoop on a crap school in the Bullring on Saturday nights and there would be scraps between men, but after winner would pick the loser up and they would shake hands, bullies weren’t tolerated. A famous character was Hughie Smith who use to do a Houdini Strong man act, in London Road, the Pier Head had lines like: I have 3 sons one in the Army, one in the Navy and one in the sack. Or after his whip round look up at the clock on the Liver Building at 5 to 3 and say shaking is collection bag, I have enough money to last time, provided I’m dead by 3 o’clock. And while doing his whip round say, if you are financially embarrassed a smile will do, but not too many smiles around here. What a character, kept us entertained for hours and never cost a coin.

Absolutely spot on Billy , great video as usual . ✌️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Spot on billy!! Bullies, look at Brian now it’s catching up with him and he’s terrified. Karma at his finest

Exactly, mate I am sick of seeing these plastic gangsters on KZfaq. Fair play as usual and again one of my favourite channels 👏

Finally someone speaks the absolute truth, humbly aswell.

You're absolutely right a real man can have a fight with nothing in it and how is Lee Duffy a legend what did he do well done for putting it out there from London

Million percent agree with you 👏 glorifying bullies is abnormal,, I'm from Glasgow in my 50s and seen all sorts,, hate these bullies being put on pedestal by dumb people. Can't comprehend it. Top man for calling it out.

Another top piece of work Billy

There is hard men out there what dont say boo and can put anyone to kip , all this glorified Bollx is full on ,ya was spot on Billy

Out of all the podcasts out there Billy's is the most genuine and sincere...and he can have a feckin rumble but he never brags about his fighting skills

Very wise words Billy, inspirational truth as always bud

Hi Bill,your right people still glorify Lee and basically he was a bully in my eyes who battered a few easy targets .Brian aka the tax man i know and i scratch my head why he likes the image and its recently brought trouble to his door.I know many better men from that era but your platform i would never use to start glorifying people . Great podcast last night fella and more wise words spoken today .Have a good day mate.

Them Lee Duffy videos have me in stitches. Theres one fella who idolises him and makes videos with photos of him with soppy music playing, fucking embarrassing. No doubt he was handy and got up to naughty stuff but every areas got a few of them and they always get found out just like he did. If he was a legend he'd still be about now.

Hi Billy, first time leaving a comment on one of your videos but I have seen many of them and can relate to a lot of what you say respect 👊🏻👍🏻.

Well said billy. Leave a grieving mother wife and family behind 👍🏼👍🏼

I’m from Middlesbrough and in my 50,s I was around with Lee . Honestly he was a total bully who would sly people punch glasses and cans into peoples faces when they where taking a drink. Big Brian hardly knew Lee knocked about with him for a month or 2 bullying vulnerable people which have sons nephews etc now who hate him. The younger generation now are a different breed sadly and will stick a blade in your side while your backs turned. Why a man of god as Brian calls himself still glorifies his past violence bewilders me.

one of the most genuine podcasters says it how it is 👍 keep it up lad

The most sense ive seen on youtube in a while, respect Billy

Well said Bill. The continuing glorification of hard men from decades ago seems pointless nowadays. Speaking from experience of living and working in a part of the world where the value of life is very cheap, it's not about being handy, it's simply about who has the least to lose ,the most the gain from acts of extreme violence and a lack of comprehending the consequences, whether it be prison or death. Duffy, Sykes, French and their ilk are/were local bullies and a complete irrelevance to the world today.

Straight from the hip as usual and correct as well Bill. Fair play 👍

Hi Billy,you got a calmness about your voice very listenable.. #commonsense 💯%

Cheers Bill, have a good weekend mate 👍 😊

Always love a delivery from Billy. Top man. Cool AF. 😎

Spot on bill, absolutely spot on!

Well said .We all respect you billy Moore .❤

Bro av been subscriber from the start of ur chanel iam finaly watchn your,banged up abroad episode,holy shit how did u survive that what a story,cheers mate really enjoyed it,big up joe aswell✌

Interesting perspective about Lee, thanks! "It's flapping like a busted fanbelt" 😂

Hello Billy, I remember walking into HMP Hindley reception in 1991. Wow that place was raw!!!! It sorted the men from the boys, I just kept my head down and got on with it but what a crazy place at the time!!!! It certainly quietened me down!!!

💥 THE HARDEST CRAZIEST MEN AINT ON KZfaq TALKING ABOUT WHOS WHO AND WHOS DONE WHAT AND WHO CAN DO WHAT AND THATS A FACT 💥

Morning Billy your spot on yht thing about cockreil he only new Duffy a 3r4 months no one in history in my opinion can have that many stories respect biiy as always o ye the jail thing your spot on again 👍

Billy u always speak the truth my friend hope all is well from Dublin

Top vid and spot on...90% of bouncers were bullys looking for easy targets to knock out...real hard men will fight even tho they know there going to lose and get hurt...keep up the good work fella

Like a busted fan belt 😂 classic

Spot on mate and big Brian is bubbling now the heats getting turned on him for what he done to folk 👏 👍 same id rather take a 2nd prize tryn than a 2nd prize not

100%. Nothing is a problem when you are on the gear. On a night out in the pub, out of nowhere,."let's rob a bank"..."great idea"....😂👍. God Bless 🙏❤

You are so right bully’s the lot of them

WELL SAID MY BOY. HARD IS IN THE HEART

It's the ones we only hear mythology and legends about,but quiet hard working men like dockers and tough but fair old school types.

Spot on Billy. I'd love your thoughts on Frenchie

I did three lots of jail with Lee Duffy and I would rather be here today at 58 than gone at 26 and we were the same age. I was too game for my own good and decided to settle down and make no mistake Lee was a hard lad but he's history and let's be honest hard men aren't much use in a place like Liverpool it's the dangerous men who you're gonna be worried about

Thank you Billy for telling people as it is , wall punchers as you said talking about someone that’s been dead for 20 years as being this insane hard man 🙈 It’s pathetic

We've all known or heard of hard lads, game as they come lads. The story's all end the same, dead, skint or in prison. Their stories all begin with trauma as kids. Trauma is what makes them who they are sadly. Nobody starts life thinking I'm gonna be so fuckin hard when I grow up do they? Their life creates that need. As always, good work Bill. You're the Sean Dyche of pods mate...different but definitely better

There's always someone out there better than you no use putting on the hard man image that day is gone it's all about being respected and who you are and if it comes to the push let your fists do the talking for you I was attacked by two people recently I knocked the two of them out not bad for an old man I also boxed back in the day good podcast Billy respect from Dublin Ireland

Hope this goes viral

The real hard men are the ones who stay quiet about their misdemeanours or show real redemption without looking for grandeur from it. When you look at the estates we've come from the real hard men were the ones who kept themselves to themselves or the gutter rat bullies darent go near them.

Wise words cheers Brother

Cracking video billy 👍💎

nice one buddy

I’m not even the hardest man in my house and I live alone

You're right like, very true

Excellent content, hit the nail on the head! Cockerel has embarrassed himself constantly recently. Did you ever meet "The Lupset Lout" Wakefield's Paul Sykes on your travels?

Spot on that Billy. My first time in prison in 2003 was like my first day in school, didn’t have a clue about nothing. I did a few years after that. But my last time in 2017 was the worst. It’s like a f@£kin lunatic asylum, my god! 🤣 I’ve changed my life around and not been in any trouble since. Doesn’t matter who ya are or how hard ya are when there’s spice heads running round slashing each other up it’s not normal. Not for me thanks

Well said, Bill.

Finally someone who speaks the truth

Hiya mate just stumbled upon your channel,im from the Boro and i did my first jail in fukkin HMP Walton (shout out the i wing lads lol) so imagine how scared i was being the only lad from teesside in the whole fukkin JAIL 😂!!! Anyway mate i can easily break it down as to why lee Duffy has the legend status,its the exact same reason as bruce lee but on a smaller scale,he was a complete one off individual that made a massive impact then died young,thats the most important thing is that lee died at 26.so we all get to here about the mad stories and the crazy stuff and then we fix him in our minds as immortal and invincible and forever young. Its that simple people,its the same reason people in the 80s and 90s would still swear up and down that Bruce Lee would beat the shit out of mike Tyson lol anyway respect mate and shout out to the scouse lads yous are all mad and hilarious haha i had a blast in ther back in 09

Hit the nail on the head .

Add Paul Sykes and his son's to the list, the Apple don't fall far from the tree.

Spot on mate

Hi Bill, good vid mate so true the place is like a jungle now no hard men now back in the day maybe but now not a chance, but stick them in the shovel and there arse twitches there would collapeses Bill, thanks buddy, god bless 💚 🙏🙏

Spot on, mate. It's a world of shite and they all end up dead or empty shells. They're only legends in their own minds. I'll give you an example. End of last year I was in Lanzarote and got to know a nice couple from Middlesborugh staying in the same hotel. I happened to mention Lee Duffy to them. They looked at me blank-faced. They'd never heard of him. And they were from the same town! So there's the reality of one of these "legends".

Just started watching Bill👍great words you talk Now you have a platform you should talk about how many hard men have gone away for being with the wrong bird who knows how to press the right buttons……then plays the biggest victim, seen this many times as an ex screw. Watching a documentary last night on Roul Moat. Not condoning anything he done or did, but by Christ did it portray his young bird as a victim! Saying to the bloke whilst in clink that I’m leaving you and now seeing a cooper (complete lies) Bottom line is there’s no help in society for men like there is for women. FACT 😢

Ur thoughts on Samual Walker Bill

Bang on the money. Real talk.

Well said.

Hi billy do u have a link we’re I can watch ur film pls?

Well said mate

That's a good one mate - "When Your Arse is flapping like a busted fan belt"......Billy Moore 2023..... I'm having that one mate😂😂.... I mean Fan Belt don't half flap when they go like.... That's the Scouse version...... The posh version would be "When your Bottom is Flapping like a Hummingbirds Wing"

You come across as a sound bloke mate , keep up the good work

so true

Wise words 👍

Lee Duffy was a proper knockout merchant.

Well said

you speak the truth billy no bullshit from you the truth only great one lad

Well said billy

Hey Bill how about take us around livpool and tell us some memories or people you knew, you know the funny stuff , the sad stuff or interesting, 👍

Billy just a question would you have faced up to Lee duffy

Spot on Billy, people glorify the wrong people

The tough times never last but tough people do when they do the right thing for the right reason for the good of the weak 👍

Moving in to someone’s bedroom, wow, the reality of that statement sums up prison.

Them geordies are milking that lee Duffy story, he was just a bully and taxman and paid the ultimate price

Like franny bennet. You don’t see him walking up motorways with no top on no more 😂

Busted fan belt😂😂😂

Never a truer word spoken Billy stay in ya lane brother.

What's your diet like bill now post cancer , age , still physically active?

Spot on. Being a bully and slapping lads who can't fight, or giving a sly one to a bouncer who's not looking shouldn't make you a hometown legend. Brian is suffering for it now, though, windows going through, car on fire. He thinks he knows who it is, but truth be told, there's a list of hundreds who want revenge on him, and Lee by extension. It's a different world now, though. Most lads these days go to the gym and train, lots of lads learning to fight aswell. You never know who you're messing with, so fight nobody. Some of the lads in my mma gym look like whoppers, pure victims. Break your arm and choke you unconscious in 20 seconds if you go after them, though.

The Bullied became the Bully. He used his fists to get his own way bushwhacking people and robbing them, although they called it taxing.

So true. Its all in the eyes. Genuinely dangerous men don't need to say anything, it's immediately obvious what you're dealing with. So many fake tough guys about nowadays.

Brian is so hard, allo is still living without a fear in his life and Brians supposed to be the hardest man in the universe 😊

I am from Newcastle, I met Duffy once when he was around the pubs in Newcastle. Its people keeping him alive, although he is dead. Its because he had a short life, and the things he did during that short time. He Wass destined to die young.

About time someone pointed this out. Big right hands but small brains.

Bri the lie used to carry a set of scales and an X ray machine to every fight he ever had.

Absolutely correct. Without Duffy and Boyle to speak about Cockerill the bully can’t talk about anything.
