Comments Thread For: Macklin Hints That Another Loss Could Spell Retirement

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Matthew Macklin says defeat is not an option in his WBC Middleweight eliminator clash with WBC International champion Jorge Sebastian Heiland at The 3Arena in Dublin on November 15, live on Sky Sports.

Macklin is on the hunt for a World title shot in 2015 and faces the Argentine in the first step after he dusted off the cobwebs in Germany a fortnight ago with his first action since December. Miguel Cotto holds the WBC title and the 32 year old is gunning for a showdown with the Puerto Rican legend if he can see off Heiland, but Macklin is aware that the visitor poses a real threat to his aspirations.

This is an eliminator fight.....-_-

If Lee somehow beats Korobov then Macklin will have the fight he's been waiting for.

This is all a bit nutty here! I heard WBC #1/mandatory silver bauble holder @ 160Lb Martin Murray was next in line for a title shot & now this?

Macklin has been a good servant for us here in the UK,the way he looked in his last fight he should of called it a day then.I wish him all the success he wants but his time has gone.GGG really left a ghost to haunt him.
