    I honestly think Macklin was ruined by Jamie Moore.

        My respect if Macklin beat Asikainen. But I think he will need home judges to do so (however, we've seen that a lot in Britain over the later years).

        And I totally agree with Demise: Barker is a far better prospect that Macklin.

          This would be a massive win for Macklin.

          Could set up some great fights.

          Macklin, Barker, Lee and even Duddy. Need to fight these guys like Askainen and Sylvester and all those other middleweights that reside in Germany. Ultimately those four should fight eachother.

          Middleweight annoys me, if they actually fought eachother, it'd be my favourite division. And, it's not like Pavlik is great either and could probably be beaten by any of those guys if they had a great day (apart from Duddy.)

          These guys aren't young and they are all operating well-below European level, Frustrating.

                none of the irish lads would take pavlik..YET! but if macklin wins this ebu belt he should be getting his shot for a 160lbs world title next year.
