    I am not sold on Macca.Not at all! Totally overrated fighter who isnt among my personal top 10 list at cruiser weight.
    But...........Banks looked horrible in his last outing to a ring winning a lucky point decision against a limited Italian foe.
    Could really go either way,but if forced I would bet my money on Macca.
    Banks seems to freeze in front of a huge crowd+Macca has more experience which could be the decisive factor in their upcomming fight.

    Good points Odo. The only thing I can point out is that Macca isn't a southpaw! But still, Banks has to look as sharp as he did in the Mayfield bout to pull off a win in the UK.

    60% are going for a Maccarinelli KO, that's surprising to me. We'll see soon enough! :bbb
