    Not unless Winky is shot. Macklin is way too crude.

    Macklin is the truth. Wright and Campas on his record. He is the next Vargas.....the next Vargas in that he will retire fat, brain-damaged and penniless.

    Just reading that he's signed a multi-fight deal with Golden Boy. Warren will be fuming!

    Don't really know what GB see in him, I expect Winky to pick him to pieces.

    They must know something about Wright. Winky at 60% beats Macklin, could be interesting with a deteriorated Wright.

    Define 'good'. It's good in that he'll make good money out of it. It isn't so good considering that, so long as Winky isn't near dead, Macklin will get his shit punched in.

    Im a big fan of Winky. I've always enjoyed the majority of his fights. Macklin is on the up, Wright has clearly declined in recent years. It's a great opportunity for Macklin to get his name out there..

    Winky has declined, he always striggled with people who were naturally bigger or stronger than him, a la Vargas, or that Argie who had him down 4 times. Macklin is a definite 160lbr.

    Could be a decent fight.

    I don't like Oscar and I trust him less than I ever would Warren.

    yeh was gonna say, it's been what four years since he last won a fight? And that was against an old MW version of Quartey.

    Macklin's no great shakes and I don't know how much he's improved in the past couple of years (if at all). But there's honestly no better time than now for him to take a fight like this.
