Enzo Maccarinelli sensationally wins British title.

Prove me wrong. He's shot, no chin, lucky to have ever been a world champion. He's a cripple waiting to happen.

 

Macca loses to each of them

Shumenov-Wins on work rate, might be able to grind Enzo down late

Cloud-Stops Enzo late to middle rounds by simply grinding him down

Hopkins-UD as he is simply to clever for Macca

Dawson-KO6 with Dawson simply too fast

 

To say hes **** is going a bit far. He's shot? yes but far from being ****.

Bar his defeat early on in his career hes only ever been beaten by top tier guys and still went on to win the british and european cruiserweight belts

Haye went onto win the HW crown

Afolabi went on to have a competitive fight with Huck aswell as the upcoming rematch

Lebedev went onto nearly beat Huck and beat Toneys ass for 12 rounds

Frenkel hasnt fought since due to whatever reasons

he still showed he was a class above Mcphilbin in terms of skill, stamina and heart but he should retire now for health sakes

If you think he is that **** lets put you in with the ring with him and see how long you last :!:

 

I hear Enzo barely squeezed by this fight. He should retire while his minds still intact.. poor guy

 

McPhilbin though-who? The other guys are average at best. Lebedev being robbed by Huck is the best claim to achievement any of them has. Enzo has a half decent right hand and he's fairly tall. That's about it. He's a liability though with his punch resistance. If not for that fish-eyed **** Enzo would never have been a world champion of any kind. He over-achieved. The idea of him vs Cleverly being anything approaching a super fight is ridiculous. Cleverly still needs to prove he deserves that trinket he holds.

 

In all fairness Enzo did beat (and knockdown) Wayne Braithwaite who held the WBC title before losing to Jones and Mormeck so he isnt **** as you put it.

Enzo has always shown good skills and was outpointing Afolabi and Frenkel before the KO's so he wasnt a bad boxer in his prime and even slowly out of it but ill agree he does need to hang them up, hes turned gun shy since frenkel and I dont blame him, any fighter would be

Cleverly does need to fight a better opponent but this is more down to fish eyes bidding in my opinion, Ive wanted to see Cleverly and Shumenov fight long before either of them won a belt and VVarren is up to his usual tricks

Sukhotsky, Shumenov, Campillo then Cloud, thats the path Cleverly should be going

 

Nice guy, but at his peak he was only really a European level fighter at very best and that's being kind.

 

:thumbsup good to hear that EM has bounced back in a lower weight, if we can make the weight easily without being weight-drained he can be a factor
However, 3 of the 4 boxers mentioned above would be too much for him IMO
I think Dawson UD him easily, Beibut can pull an MD/SD
If Bernard can maintain his fitness level at his age he will UD EM too
The easier fight for EM would be Cloud, who is there to be hit and this could make EM's power a big factor. Cloud has good power as well but I would be hugely disappointed if we could KO EM
Good luck to Enzo:good

 

I love Enzo. But the guy has fragile chin, he should retire before something bad happens to him.

 

Cmon!! I like Maccarinelli but he is shot to ****. He would have been knocked out by guy who's not even top100 fighter but crazy timekeeper saved him. In his prime Macca would have destroyd mcphilbin in three rounds. Macca surprised me, he was more worst than i thought he would be. He should really retire, he cant win anything big anymore. He only hurts himself if something. If you struggle with mcphilbin.. Thats Not good!! Please dont let enzo to get up to the Ring with any real fighter. Guy is done. I hope nothing but good to him but its time to hang em up and search something else to do. I really dont know how you were impressed and talking crazy things like that.. He just struggled and was gifted with a victory against a NOVICE...

 

this :deal shocker of a thread.

 

they seriously all **** enzo up.....i'd say enzo has a shot at cleverly though but not much.... man cloud vs enzo would be nasty hahaha it would be the most brutal ko in recent memory....shumenov would ring his bell early too....dawson would toy with enzo the fighting rooster until shattering his jaw after 4-5 rounds...hopkins??? c'mon son

 

enzo should just call it quits, he is a ko waiting to happening, although matched with the right opponent, he'd be fine.

 

"Slightly shaken" is quite an understatement. He would have been KO'd if there hadn't been corruption. The bell rung 40 seconds too early. And Enzo can't compete with any of the world class guys. Shumenov (who really isn't world class) would stop Enzo. Cloud would definitely stop Enzo, Dawson and Hopkins also stop Enzo. It might take them longer, but they would stop him. Everytime Enzo gets brushed he gets hurt. So, it isn't realistic, at all, matching him up with world class fighters when he really should have been KO'd in one round to....Shane McPhilibin.
