Enjoy your rest champ, walking away healthy from any sport while intact is huge.

For British fans I would imagine it would be his barnstormer with Jamie Moore.

Epic fight.

Fought his heart out any time I watched him

In Europe he'll be remembered for the fight of the year against Moore. Beating Felix Sturm but getting robbed.

[PittyPat]

I'll always remember him for knocking Asikainen TFO and giving Martinez a tough time.



... and then looking utterly petrified of Golovkin.

Isn't he a Lawyer? He'll be fine...

Nice to see him go out on a win.

He gave us some fun fights. He was maybe unlucky not to pick up a title against Sturm.

His fight with Jamie Moore was brilliant.

Would have loved to have seen him finish with a shot at 154, I thought that was where he was headed and he picked up a few handy wins after the GGG loss. Good luck to him, got robbed against Sturm.

Anyway well done to Macklin. Tough guy and a good career. hardly anyone on here understands the talent and hard work it takes to be a guy like Macklin.
