    Saw Oral against Sylvester. He's not great.

    War Mack The Knife!!!!

    A win here would be a massive boost to his career. Really put him on the map stateside.

    Purely as a fan I would much rather see Barker vs Macklin.

    Not us all but probably most.

    Beating Barker isnt really going to increase his profile or gain him any more credability in my opinion - especially in the States

    Will be a better fight IMO and It would enhance eithers ranking and then the path to the top will still be there. Best to sort out who's the best in the back garden before taking on the street!!!

    And losing to an old, inactive Winky will?

    Same here but Wright is a much bigger fight and I can understand Macklin taking it. It's a more difficult fight also imo. It's just I'd be more emotionally invested in a fight with Barker. That craic on here would be savage.

    I agree, I think Macklin would lose. He's look like he is slipping to me. I hope I'm wrong.
