it would be funny for 5'2 ball to fight the 6'1 wbo champ espinoza
Would love it too, but pretty sure Ball handlers will keep well away won't they ?!

The Monster @ New Goodison when Liverpool are @ home on Saturday - great occasion and should get a load of Japanese tourists over..
Why would Inoue fight away? And Ball at Everton? He's a red.

Monster is far too good for the Wrecking Ball. He'd be out of his depth.

I can find Louis 'Kid' Kaplan also 5'2" , but no one shorter

Exactly this , up the levels it's evident.
Fell asleep watching it , mind you probably more to do with Edward's performance beforehand.
Boxing does disappoint me at times so much these days.

I reckon the shortest and tallest fighter in each division should be made to fight at least once. Maybe on a special Saudi bill, go through every weight class in one show. Could be very entertaining.

Put Doheny in with reasonably hard punching world class boxers and he will always be on borrowed time and his performances stink !

I think after Doheny's world title challenge against Inoue I posted something like "why bother" !

He fights like there in no pressure to perform, entertain or win :brick:

I presume nobody made it clear to Doheny...he was the challenger ! :lol:

Forget about top 50, literally just the shortest vs tallest active pro in the division, regardless of level :bag:

Cos he's a proper World Champion that wants to travel the world winning great fights in great arenas ?
And Ball could do it @ Anfield instead, but it's just a sparkly new arena and Mickeys are always saying how they don't have a hateful rivalry and they support each other, love their nans etc...

Julius long is probably the tallest. 7’1 with a 90 inch reach…

As for the shortest regardless of level… I’m sure there is a 5”5 fatttt Mexican about at a very very low level.

There was a fella just last week that fought on a Golden Boy card that was 5'8 as a Heavyweight.

Mickeys? Good grief. Your last comment just shows your ignorance of the rivalry.

Non-footy events only take place in the off season so you couldn’t have a fight there and the other team playing. I doubt Inoue comes here but I’d be all over that.

For what it’s worth, I really don’t mind be called a Mickey/Mouser.
