Since then, Ball has successfully defended the title twice, seeing off Ronny Rios and TJ Doheny in his home city.
The Wrecking Ball will be looking to make a statement on Saturday night against undefeated challenger Goodman.
The Aussie has fought much of his career at 122lbs, but he will make the four pound step up to face the Brit in Saudi Arabia.
Goodman has only fought once in over a year, after two scheduled bouts with undisputed junior featherweight champion Naoya Inoue were cancelled due to severe cuts to the 26-year-old.
Saturday's clash between Ball and Goodman promises to deliver fireworks and SunSport can reveal all the details you need so you don't miss a single second.
Moses Itauma vs Dillian Whyte - all the info
One of the biggest fights of the year has arrived
The highly-touted Moses Itauma faces the biggest test of his fledgling career as he steps into the ring with Dillian Whyte on Saturday night.
Itauma, 20, has great expectations on his shoulders - he has been compared to Mike Tyson and is expected by many to dominate boxing's heavyweight division over the next decade.
But the Slovakian-born star - who sits at 12-0 (10KOs) is yet to face a test anywhere close to what Whyte can offer.
The Body Snatcher is now 37 and has not looked great in his last couple of fights, but the former world title challenger knows an upset win would catapult him right back to the top table.
