    Aiden ‘LikkleMan’ Henry is 3ft PPV star who spent time in prison before training with Conor Benn and Anthony Yarde

    AT just 3ft tall Aiden ‘LikkleMan’ Henry is the most unlikely pay-per-view boxing star imaginable but his story is every inch as impressive as the fight game’s giant heroes.Born with dwarfism in Coventry 28 years ago, Henry suffered such heartbreaking rejection from the people who should have loved and protected him most.
    Aiden ‘LikkleMan’ Henry was born with dwarfism  in Coventry 28 years agoCredit: Instagram / @likklemangram
    It was only in local gangs that he was able to find any protection from the bullies who wanted to take liberties with him.
    A life of crime and prison sentence for burglary followed but while caged he posted a string of madcap videos that earned support from champion boxers and music stars.
    Since his release in March 2019, Henry has turned his life around, apologised for his crimes and trained with stars like Conor Benn and Anthony Yarde.
    And his huge social media following – which includes almost 560,000 plus Instagram fans – shows he’s more popular than ever.
    The fact he gatecrashed BDave’s weigh-in for his upcoming Misfits Boxing night on Saturday – shoving the influencer before tackling him down to the ground with a double-leg takedown would have endeared him to the public even more.
    Henry told SunSport back in 2020: “I was born fighting, when you are born half the size of a normal man you have to fight twice as hard to get anywhere in life.
    “I was born into a life of gangs, drugs and crime, like a lot of people are in certain areas. But on top of that I am this size.
    “I didn’t go to school, I can’t read or write, I didn’t have parents.

    “I have matured a lot now but my brain is definitely wired differently to everyone else.
    “I’ve had 25 bad years behind me, I have had to apologise for a lot of things I am sorry for, but now I have this chance to turn my life around and I am going to take it.”
    Henry comes close to getting deep on his early struggles but pulls himself back, his hard-man outlook ingrained long before he ever picked up a pair of gloves.
    The reformed bad-boy will not offer up sob stories but he is proud he has made his area proud and wants to use his platform to apologise to anyone he wronged.
    He said: “Anyone who knows my story will hopefully respect me more now because they will know what I went through.
    “I was a little f***er, I have to admit I was a little b******. And I am sorry to all the people I hurt in the past but I had to do certain things to feed myself and survive.
    “I committed burglaries because I had no other way to live, I couldn’t do just one £1m robbery because it would be too easy to spot the 3ft black man in the police line-up.
    “But that is my past, I am thankful for how it made me but that’s behind me and this golden ticket is helping me change my life.”

    LikkleMan insists he is not a circus act being exploited, his social media power means he is in control of his second career and he has big dreams once crowds are allowed in events.
    Coventry City fans have to travel to Birmingham to watch their football team but Henry reckons his particular charms could give them a great showdown closer to home.
    He said: “I could sell out the Ricoh Arena, definitely.
    “Because I am small but confident with it, people have never seen that combination and are intrigued.
    “Girls are fascinated about whether things are in proportion, it’s just my everyday life.
    “From a very young age I have been aggressive because of how I have been treated.
    “Now I can hopefully make that work for me and better my life, because that is all I have wanted the chance to do.” More

    Negotiations are underway behind the scenes, but KSI has not been shy of revealing his terms in the open.
    He told talkSPORT: “Ideal scenario is to fight at this weight, 177.5lbs, or I might push it to 180lbs, that’s ideal for me.
    “I want it to be in the UK. In terms of a split, I’ll be fair 50/50, I don’t want to be a d***. I think that’s reasonable.
    “But, I have to be first on the bill, it has to be KSI vs Jake Paul and I walk in last.”
    READ MORE IN BOXING
    KSI, 29, returns to the ring tonight at Wembley Arena against gamer Faze Temperrr, 29, and does so at 175lb.
    Paul’s last fight, a win over 47-year-old UFC legend Anderson Silva, was at a career-lowest 187lb.
    So it means he would need to come down in weight to meet KSI, who would be putting size on.
    And while splitting the prize money down the middle seems fair enough, the location of the bout could strike problems.

    There is more money to be made in America, which Paul, 25, is ready to capitalise on unless an agreement is soon struck.
    He tweeted: “I sent KSI and his team a contract over a month ago. I offered to come to the UK, 185 pounds and 10 rounds.
    “I have been at 8 rounds since Askren. He and his team have yet to respond.
    “The offer was / is to come to the UK in December 2023. If he doesn’t respond next week after his show, then it’s going to have to be in the US.”
    Paul has also in the past confirmed he is willing to concede terms as the B-side, allowing KSI to walk in last and be named on the posters first.
    The fierce feud dates back to 2018, when KSI’s brother Deji, 26, was beaten by the American.
    On the same night, KSI also drew with Paul’s brother Logan, 27, but won the rematch a year later when they turned professional.
    The KSI and Logan are now friends and business partners following the successful launch of hydration drink Prime.
    But there is no love lost for Paul, who has since gone 6-0 in the period of KSI’s boxing absence.

    But negotiations appeared to hit a standstill when Paul threatened to move onto other targets.
    A period of silence followed until the YouTube star’s boxing banner Most Valuable Promotions sent out a cryptic clue.
    They posted a video of Paul training with the caption: “Jake Paul coming soon to a PPV near you.”
    Eagle-eyed fans noticed MVP tagged Manchester in the location of the post.

    It comes after Paul offered to travel to Fury’s home of Manchester on February 18 in a bid to get the fight on.
    Another deal was also in place for a week later, February 25, in Saudi Arabia for a considerable amount more money.
    Fury, who is believed to have been offered £2m for the Saudi fight, insisted he wants the bout in England and would do it for FREE.
    He said: “Once again I’m seeing Jake Paul s**t all over the internet. You offered Paddy Pimblett a million pound to spar.

    “I’ll fight you for free in Manchester or London, next month. Not a problem. So let’s see how game you are.
    “Promoters get nothing whose trying to take everything, me and you get nothing, all proceeds will go to charity.
    “I just want to fight you and put an end to you, because all this money and everything – it’s gone on too long. Take it or leave it.”
    Fury, 23, fuelled further speculation as he posted on Instagram: “Fight news coming very soon.”
