agree, it's not even the pub fights id have in mind , it's more like being dwarfed even by the average lass. dave allen may be limited but it would still be a step up on my current ranking

The 9st Scott Harrison and the 8st 10 Michael Hunter had reputations for taking out teams of bouncers.
Micky Hunter ploughing through bouncers is an urban myth…just never happened.
Mickys manager was Dave Garside who ran most of the doors in Hartlepool.
Doormen might have turned a blind eye to some of Mickys (or more likely his entourages antics)because essentially they both had the same boss, but I’ve never heard any stories about Micky fighting bouncers

Sorry your point is what?
That your a complete idiot with no clue about boxing or fighting in general.
oh dear that’s a bit of an overreaction.
it’s funny how upset people are about a fun thread asking a question about fighters (as there’s not much boxing going on)…. I bet you and others getting upset are on the short / small side and it’s hit a nerve? That can be the only explanation - I mean imagine getting so upset over an inoffensive internet post!?
Go on - tell us how tall / heavy you are? I bet you’re like 5ft5 with a massive chip on your shoulder aren’t you?
A fun thread?
Not at all. I just don’t make daft assumptions about fighting and boxing like you. Honestly aside from that you seem like a wee teenager. How young are you?
You’ve started a few ‘how hard is so and so’ threads. Aside from being a bit gay it’s very childish. Have you ever been in a fight/boxing match?

Exactly. The majority of his posts make him sound like a lonely person, imagining himself as a tough guy. I wonder if he has a fascination for gypsies?

So Sunny is a world champion and been quite impressive. But despite his Twitter ‘celebrity’ he will never make big money. Also he’s 8 stone and 5ft3. So won’t get the respect a big man gets; he would be beaten to a pulp by the average pub fighter and would have no chance against a big bouncer.
So would you prefer to be a Heavy who will never be world champion and is somewhat of a gatekeeper to the world class fighters?
Say a Chisora. Or maybe a Dave Allen is a better suggestion. Obviously Chis has at least boxed for the world title and has earned millions which Edwards never will, so maybe that’s an unfair comparison.
Dave Allen will surely earn more than Sunny, so would David Price, even Nathan Gorman.
And who wants to be a 5ft3 8 stone man? I would hate it. However Edwards can always say he’s a world champion, but what does that mean when if he walked into a pub and declared ‘I can whip any man in the house!’ He would be going home in an ambulance?
I’d rather be a Dave Allen by miles
but james though u know and i know not many people will have a straightener with doorman ur gonna use a homemade cosh bit of wood chair leg or pole bottle what ever u find on the street, were little fella likey to have a 1 on 1 , so there is always draw backs haha how old fashion am i, these days you would be stabbed to death or shot at the drop of a hat , iam 6ft by the way iant got little geezer disease

I do remember during his fighting career, either Ian Darke or Adam Smith referring to him as the scourge of Hartlepool bouncers.
Now as you said it could have been an urban myth or maybe he was just always getting himself into bother and thrown out of clubs (as opposed to actually fighting the doormen/bouncers etc).

That is definitely more accurate BigEars- Micky is a “lively” character when he’s on the drink but some of his mates are a different nuisance level
