He has the power but I think it's a 12 rounder.

Sturm will win easily. Macklin isn't in his class.

Macklin is better than Sturms recent opponents thats for shure. And if he is a volume puncher with decent power he has a good chance to war Sturm down and stop him late. It could be a good fight, im looking forward to it. Im not picking a winner here i think its verry even.

Macklin isn't really a volume puncher and Sturm is going to win easily.

It's in Germany aswell meaning that if it goes to the descion he has next to no chance.

116-112 Sturm. His jab will be working all night long. Macklin will give him just enough of a fight that Sturm will go back to making defenses against C class, hopeless opponents and continue avoiding Martinez, Golovkin, Pirog and the like.
