Since when was Macklin suddenly Irish??? "Tipperary Tornado" Did he steal ESB legend Healys passport or something?
nice shout out but ridiculously bias and one sided article towards the "irish" fighter. the articles on this site are usually quality but to be taken seriously you cannot be so bias towards the irish. what would you do if macklin faced andy lee....who would you support.....or would your just explode.
Well props to Palmer on this one he did break the story of Barker having an injury. Barker is now allegedly saying that this injury has been building for sometime now - so why come out and say he WASN'T injured to Danny Flexen?
You would have to ask him Spunk - he is the one with the Irish passport after all! Is it beyond you brains capabilities to fathom it or has the bigot been brainwashed into you up there in G-town?
he never said he wasnt injured. He said he was fighting and he was at that time. fair enough this is how your going to write, but i expect a simular article mocking any irish fighter that pulls out injured in the future otherwise i will see your site as paddy propaganda.
He gave the impression that he wasnt - at least he gave me that impression from his response. Mocking? Factual! "paddy propaganda"
this could be a decent match up hopefully it happens it will compensate a little bit for the two pull outs....konecky has benn fightin at middle in his last few fights so its not unrealistic to think that it will happen... id say it will end up with konecky decidin weather or not he wants to go up from light middle
for the vacant title would be good but it would mean them both losing good paydays and barker will only drop the title if macklin guarentees the fight later in the year, which at the moment he wont do.
