Matthew Macklin video interview - talks Winky, Lee and OK a little Barker!

I stand corrected :thumbsup...either way, it should be a good fight and closer than both sets of fans seem to be reckoning. I'll watch as an impartial observer.

 

LOL you fool Macklin said that not Barker.

 

war continues

 

Some of these Irish are just so one eyed and biased it's unbelievable.

Even trying to claim fighters who's last Irish ancester died in the Tudor era

 

You Brits are just as biased, if not more. The last I heard you lot were getting your knickers in a twist about Macklin's Irish ancestory although both his parents are Irish and only the other day there was discussion of including a Polish fighter in the British rankings

 

Didn't take you long to respond, did it :hey

So do you admit that many Irish fans are biased?

The fact that whenever a person mentions Rendall Munroe makes one of you lot come on and start with the ''Dunne would have beat him'' stuff proves the point.

Also the constant ''he's not British, he's Irish'' crap is very pedantic.

It's a place to discuss boxing, not semantics. Take all that **** to the ****** room and your precious Irish boxing thread.

 

Talking himself up.....not slagging other fighters off. No problem with that.

and you just slagged of Barker for saying something Macklin said lol


Macklin is a brit anyway. either way we win.

 

Envy?

What am I envious of?

As I've explained to you before I've got Irish ancestry too - probably on a par with what some of the English holders of the ''Irish'' title have!

I was born in England, therefore I'm English.

I don't think it's right that foreigners/immigrants can fight for the British title or represent us in other sports on residency or whatever, but I don't make the rules.

 

I am looking forward to Macklin smashing the **** out of Barker. :thumbsup

 

It didn't take you long to get your two cents in either did it? Everyone on here is biased to a certain degree anyone who says different is lying, it's just Irish posters who are called on it everytime. If I think a British fighter would beat an Irish one I'd have no problem saying it but Dunne would have had the edge over Munroe and Macklin or Lee have the edge over Barker, that's just how things stand right now. I was a big McCullough fan but I knew he was getting beat by Hamed so I won't call a fight for the Irish fighter just because of where they come from.
It's people like you and Rob who always seem to have a problem with Irish boxers nationality, if you didn't keep bringing it up, like in this thread, we would have no need to argue about it.

 

The Brum won't show op
