    There is no doubt:bart that with his in your face style that Macklin goes down :nut this Saturday. He is the in your face, walk you down type of fighter just like Maidana. Sorry had to plug the 147 killing machine quickly:lol:

    My question is which round will he go down for the first time in this weekends fight.:think

    I don't think it will be just once so I am asking you, my brothers inside the USA and abroad to pick the first knock down.:smoke

    Side note, will they allow us to bet our V Cash on this fight?:huh

    He hired McGirt as a trainer recently. I say corner stoppage in 7 even if he drinks some water. Baby.

    Yeah Macklin can have an aggressive temperament but he can also box. Macklin is the best middleweight in the UK. And he has Buddy Mcgirt in his corner now so he is prepaired to upset the unproven Golovkin.

    Macklin was robbed vs Sturm in Germany. And Macklin fought an even fight with a PFP top 5 fighter Sergio Martinez until he was Ko'd.

    If he couldn't beat up sturm, then how does he even trouble GGG.
    Don't be the guy that called Golo an unproven fighter and then make
    excuses when he trounces this guy. GGG needs to have the chance
    to prove himself, but 345 wins out 350 amatuer fights and a close to 90%
    KO ratio against decent pro op lets me know that he's earned his hype.

    I will agree that Macklin is one tough son of a ***** who would try to walk through Satan in HELL on a bad day:smoke

    IMO....This will be the true test for GGG:hey
    He is a very impressive T2 machine and Macklin is an old style T1..... THIS WILL BE A WAR OR WORLDS:patsch
    Knock downs no doubt:nut

    Quite possible Macklin will get dropped in the !st if he engages Golovkin but he won't. Macklin kept a healthy distance from Martinez so why would he get in Golovkin's kitchen? Unless Golovkin starches him with a single shot early (unlikely) Macklin will certainly keep distance the first time he tastes Golovkin's power.

    Buddy McGirt is obviously going to have Macklin fight in and out while keeping distance. No way this fight turns into the stand your ground collision that some are predicting/expecting.

    Why would Macklin try and do that when he would not try and walk through Martinez?

    He might be down pretty early in the fight, but I think the fight ends in round 6

    to be fair he was killing himself to get down to 154 & was years ago and its fair to say macklins improved abit since then..... was a great fight though one of my favourite ever domestic fights

    round 4 i think - if he fights like he did against martinez he might make it past 6, if he goes out like he did against sturm i reckon he goes down in the 1st 4
