yeah when he makes his comeback...he can fight james tooney another lard ass:good wicky hatton the next white hope of british heavyweight boxing:good
Pirog is a great prospect but Macklin will deal with him on route to a World Title.:deal Hatton in Dublin, Would you expect any less.:beer
I find the hatton slagging a bit cheap. The man lit up the 140 division and so what if he puts on the lbs he is damn well entitled to enjoy himself. Macklin looked impressive tonight and hopefuly Hatton can get him a shot without the risk of pirog. Seems like Spike needs to stay at 154.
Yeah lads no need for it! Rickys a legend in my lifetime anyway! I wouldve been honoured to shake the hand of the man who fought my hero, Floyd! Didnt see what he was like on rte but when he jumped in the ring he didnt seem pissed! Andy Murrays fight was quite entertaining Boone came to fight and had no intentions of rolling over, tried talkin to him at the end of it but hes Ecuadorian and didnt know whats going on but seemed like an sound guy and props for giving his all, he can punch like a mother****er and i felt so bad for him after, i thought if he had've KD'd Andy he'd earn a draw atleast! Paulie looked impressive seems to be geting alot more craftier by the fight even though his opponent had little to offer. My first time seeing Macklin live and oh god his body punching is vicious and im loving his right and left uppercuts! Atomosphere was great had some crack even though i was with my godmother!The banter with the round card girls and the crowd was the best! When yer man put on the little belly top jersey and threw it back at her! LEGEND!:happy:happy
Oh and does anyone think Mack would be able for Pavlik? I dont think so yet? He'd have no bother at light-middle winning a World Title! Went back to the Jurys with all the lads! Sound bloke I must say! Was talkin about the hurling with him! What does everyone think of Prunty? What you think of Murray,Fitzgerald and Hyland?
MACKLIN DEFEATS PINTOS http://www.boxingnews24.com/2009/12/macklin-defeats-pintos/ Macklin looks ready for a world title, and the ten hard rounds completed will stand by him, much more than a quick blast out would have. He's convinced he can beat Pavlik, and that's the sort of confidence needed, if he is to step into the ring with such a formidable force. I wish I could have been there last night, it sounded like a terrific night.
I wasnt trying to slag wicky hatton but he did look pissed as a fart when he was talking after the fight..... i also think pirog or any top class counter puncher kos the head hunting macklin ps mick dowling is a ****.
I can't watch the Macklin fight back on RTE.ie for some reason and I can't use RTÉ player because I'm outside the country. Anyone with any suggestions on why this happening or any ways around it ?
