Hard man 

Those last two definitions of Hard Man are all wrong. The first one is actually referring to a chav, which is quite the opposite, and the other was written by someone who plays too much Mega Man.

A Hard Man is someone who is unafraid of a fight and/or can take loads of physical punishment and drink.

P1: Any coward can through a punch at the back of someone's head. But a real hard man (/hardman) looks the bloke right in the eye, and is ready to give "the old 1 3".

My dad was a hard man in his younger years, He knew what lines not to cross and whenever the shit hit the fan he would just accept the situation and get on with it. I wish I was capable of that.
