Matthew Macklin Demolishes Amin Asikainen in One Round

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

For a long time, Matthew Macklin has come close to being the man of the British Middleweights He had a stellar amateur career, and it has taken eight long years for him to step up through the gears and compete at European level. Having been fighting at Middleweight for nearly three years, nothing has come easy for the Birmingham boxer. A 10 round knockout loss at the hands of Jamie Moore in 2006 had been a major stumbling block at 154lbs and signified the end of Macklin’s Light Middleweight aspirations. Having demolished former World title challenger Wayne El**** in three rounds, incidentally a job that took former Middleweight boss Arthur Abraham five rounds to complete. But on Friday, Macklin faced his toughest challenge to date, for the European Middleweight title - the former holder of this belt, and one time conqueror of Sebastian Sylvester, title contender Amin Asikainen 26-2 (17KO’s).

Best news I've heard all day. Now all we need is a Dunne win tomorrow night, and to shake things up a little, an Arreola demolition of the Klit.

Weldone Macklin. You're the real deal.

BTW, anyone got a link or footage of this fight? Wasted my evening injecting James Joyce into peoples faces and now regretting it...

He just can't take a punch any longer and he has always been there to be hit. Amin should retire but he probably won't.
