    Hopefully Macklin could get a a tune up in some time before then as he's only done 1 round in the last 12 months.

    Excellent fight, Macklin is the best MW not to hold a title, and of course those holding a title are not too keen to face GGG.

    I'm not a hater but I definitely have been heavily criticizing GG as of late. If the Macklin fight gets made it's a win for boxing fans. Credit goes out to Team Golovkin. He should never again fight a C level junior middleweight. There is absolutely no excuse for that unless he is: (A) a prospect (B) under the age of 25. He is neither. GG is a fraud if he continues to pick on underwhelming opponents. Don't defend him if he continues this path. Macklin is a good choice and let's hope GG sticks to fighting solid MWs.

    Macklin is a good MW gatekeeper. He is a tough boy but since I saw him struggle against Varon on 2010 I don't have too much expectatives on him.

    Anyway it's a best fight that against Vera, Lee or any 154lbr

    I like it.

    Macklin >>>>> Ishida, Tapia, Nunez, Simon & Fuchigami.

    Rosado and Ouma are better than all those jokes, but they're light middleweights (and Ouma was shot).

    This will be the 2nd best opponent of Golovkin's entire MW title reign, or best tied with Proksa.

    It might go the distance.

    Macklin has been stopped twice, but excusable circumstances both times. He was pulled against his will against Maravilla, and with Moore it was down to late exhaustion following a grueling breakneck war leaving him utterly spent and vulnerable. He was also weight drained.

    If GGG gets the knockout, that will put him three away from cracking 90%. :bbb

    *YAWN* Another KO for the master. 6th round stoppage actually, so TKO. People just don't get it, Triple G is ****ing monster like for real .. Tyson-like phenomenon destruction wise. Once people UNDERSTAND that and come to terms with it they will enjoy whats happening. #TeamLowBlow
