Two dwarfs who will step into the ring for a televised boxing bout next month are set for a substantial payday.

Matthew Wood, an early-childhood teacher, and Colin Lane, a nightshift worker at SkyCity, will square off on the undercard of the Joseph Parker-Francois Botha fight in Auckland on June 13.

Fairfax Media understands Wood and Lane will each receive between $5000 and $8000 for about six weeks' training and their three-round fight. All their training and other expenses are covered as part of the deal. [Click Here To Read More]

no respect for human beings. they throw in a midget fight on the undercard to make people laugh while the small men may punch each other to death..sickening

As if Botha still fighting wasn't a joke in its own right.

I'd do that for 5-8 grand though. **** I'd get my ass whooped by a Klitschko for that.

Yikes. I'd prefer to see the two ladies in pic #2 mud-wrestling rather than this sad excuse for a fight card.

Anyone who says they wouldn't be interested in watching dwarves fight is a liar.
