    Slap... What's your actual prediction?

    I seem to remember you wasn't too far off for the Sturm fight... :think

    What do you mean actual predication? I just gave it! :smoke

    If Martinez takes Macklin as lightly as he did Barker then I give him a good chance. However, I cant see that happening, Martinez is well aware of Macklins performance against Sturm and he is only one good performance away from a "megafight" so he will be looking to put in a shinning performance not just chalk up a win. People say that Martinez is over rated, I can see why they say that, he blows a little hot a cold but the quality he has displayed can not be ignored, especially when he is on fire.

    Head says Macklin throws everything at him and shoots his bolt by round 8 and Martinez picks him off as the guard dips lower and Macklin gets stopped on his feet.

    Heart says Macklin throws everything at him and shoots his bolt by round 8 but has put enough in the bank to crawl over the line..........and the NEW!!!!!

    Now **** off ya Villa ****! :good

    Martinez by knockout, probably mid-round.............however, could be early.............

    He's training with Buddy McGirt so they probably won't have much of a gameplan, he'll be in great shape and come out aggressively which like people say will play right into Martinez's hands.

    TKO around the 7th round.

    Tough one for Macklin but Martinez has age and Macklin has strength,I have a feeling Macklin might sneak it late on!!!

    I think it looks pretty likely that Martinez will stop him. But that said, I do believe Macklin has something that could make the fight interesting.

    Really looking forward to it tbh, it could be a great fight.

    That's very harsh. Mr McGirt is a very good trainer, trust me. Unfairly gets a bad rap. The problem for him is, he almost always takes on a hopeless case and very rarely has a good enough horse in the race.

    Don't trash someone if you haven't seen their work behind the scenes and just because people make fun of his delivery.

    Would be great if Macklin did it. Stopped being a fan of Martinez over the past year or so.
