    Is John Duddy a TV presenter now or something?

    Think Maclin wins this because Sturm is on the slide and well was never that good in the first place.
    Macklin TKO late

    If Macklin wins I can see people saying that Sturm was shot and was only a paper champ.
    If Macklin loses people will say that Macklin ain't world level and not beating a world level fighter like Sturm proves it.
    Hopefully Macklin can do the business and fights Lee in Ireland at the end of the year:thumbsup

    Great pics, you got someone over there covering it? Must be mixed feelings for Duddy seeing Macklin getting the world title fight that slipped through his fingers.

    I'm pretty sure since Sturm left Universum and formed his own promotional company he's on Sat1 now.

    What's the buzz like in Ireland for this?

    Is there any British TV? That might add towards the lack of excitment.

    EDIT - on Sky. :patsch

    has he always been such a blue-eyed boy(or green-eyed) for the irish? seems to me its only really been since the yori boy campos fight, or has he always been bigging up his irish roots his whole career? seems like he may have more fans there than the UK so cant blame him for pushing it
