    I presume if he does get a title shot it will be sturm? Seems the most likely choice at the moment.

    He has Irish in his nickname. Failing that he had a pint of Guinness once. And sure aren't Americans always telling you 'Hey I'm Irish too!'

    Do you know what the qualification critieria is to fight for the BUI title? Coyne doesnt pass it I'm afraid.

    I know we dont know the full story yet so perhaps Im being a bit harsh but Im starting to find Macklins career quite tedious. Anytime he builds a bit of momentum something goes wrong again.
