Was he one of the shortest of modern heavies ?
I just watched his fight versus Mercer, Ray's debut..and McGhee made Mercer look like a giant...ironically it is Mercer who often looks in his matches to be short himself.
Does anyone have any info...stories etc about this stubby heavyweight ?
thanks guys

Jesse McGhee
Re: Jesse McGhee
I remember him, recorded his bout with Bruce Seldon too. There was another heavyweight I seen back then that might have been shorter, Dion Simpson. Fought from 81 to 85. I seen him live against Andy Csonka(Bro of the football player) in Az. When Dion entered the ring I thought of midget wrestling. Though Simpson's height is not listed with boxrec he was very short but pretty solid. Simpson ended up with a 19-2 record losing to Pierre Coetzer and Buster Douglas(the Douglas bout was part of the ESPN heavyweight tourney and Douglas lost to Jessie Ferguson in the next round)Robinson wrote:Was he one of the shortest of modern heavies ?
