Earl & Sigel played a Challenge Match in 9-Ball, in 1985, Race to 45- Earl 45, Sigel 44. Does this qualify as the two best players matching up, in 9-Ball?An all-around would be very hard to handicap. Josh has a clear edge at 9ball, 10 ball seems pretty even, and Fedor would have a slight edge at both banks and one-pocket. Let's hope this happens.
I'd consider it the first marathon match played between the world's two best players in the last 50 years. For the record, when Efren hooked up with Earl in the Race to 120 in the late 1990s, Jose Parica was quite a bit better than Efren at 9ball.
