    I've got Mack as a very slight underdog as it's pretty much a 50/50 fight.

    I have Geale the slight favourite to be honest but not by much. This is a fight I think both fighters need to win either lose and that could spell a devastating effect on eithers career. I am going Macklin via split decision as I'm expecting a close fight.

    I think Macklin will win.... Macklin should have gotten the nod over Sturm, gave Sergio a hell of a fight etc.

    cant split em
    Never been that impressed by Geale and Macklin always does enough to loose.
    probably be an SD win for either fighter that then gets branded a robery

    Hopefully things go Macks way this time. He has always been the "nearly man" and - IMO - has been badly under-appreciated by British and Irish fans. For some reason or combination of reasons he never got the support he deserves IMO. In many ways he was overlooked in favour of IMO - inferior domestic contemporaries. Personally I certainly always rated him ahead of Murray and well ahead of Lee and Barker.
    He gives 110% and has been in far better fights and turned in far better performances than his domestic contemporaries, sadly without getting the results in terms of titles and Ws in the Win Column. Heres hoping that natural justice prevails and he gets a break this time against Geale, a fighter who is the polar opposite in terms of squeezing every bit of success out of his limited skills. If Macklin is a chronic under-achiever, then Geale must be one of the greatest over-achievers ever.
