    No, Macklin isnt Irish, I cant believe Irish people claim him, I know he's proud of his heritage and all but still............

    And McCloskey considers himself Irish and im pretty sure he comes from the Irish part of Derry. Plus he talks about how he's ''fighting at home'' in Donegal.

    Irish part of Derry, said it yourself. Northern Ireland. I dont get into bull**** debates about fake subjects such as religion so from the fact he is from Derry means he's British.

    Thought id say that i wanted to put Israel Vazquez on the list, but seeing how badly damaged his eye is, i think its best if he retires.

    I know mate, I find it funny though some English people say they hate being called British and then say Nathan Cleverly is one of their best fighters:huh

    Are you talking about andy murray because if you are hes definetly not British.And Macklins parents are both Irish so that makes him more than 1/600th Irish

    I dunno. I rate Lindsay quite high, he just needs to have more fights per year.

    yeah many fighters have irish desent. gavin, macklin, saunders, fury but they all represent uk so im including them.
    if you start looking at where fighters desend from the floyed mayweather and shane mosly are african not american. or if you thinks that padantic many usa fighters who represent america have mexican or some kind of foriegn parents. chris areola, victor ortiz, robert guerro, vanes martirosyan and many more.
    a fighters nationality is measured by what it says on there passport. its not about race its about what system provided them the training and support to become a champion.

    I dont think so mate, do you consider John Duddy British? His Uncle was killed in Bloddy Sunday. And I know it's a different sport but why are football players from up north allowed to play for the Republic?
