Macklin's a smart fighter and is really the first guy I give half a chance of beating Sergio since Maravilla made the Ghost bleed.
Great determination, good pressure over 12 rounds... limited in terms of boxing skills, more specifically on defense. Martinez will not have trouble finding the target... more open style, different attributes than Barker.
C Class Fighter, but fought like a B Class fighter against Sturm and got robbed, but I am not really sure how good Sturm is, after being Robbed By Oscar De La Hoya, he himself haven't fought anybody
WTF? He calls himself Irish, wears Irish flag on his shortsand uses the Irish National Anthem 'Amhran na bhFiann' before his fights!! Good fight and has great heart and determination. Should be a title holder after Sturm fight. But i think it's a bad match against Sergio he will do very well against a come forward fighter
He's a decent fighter, he's a good contender. If he didn't swell and bleed so much and had better defense, he'd be a much bigger problem. If he can show any improvement on the 17th in either of these departments, then it gets very interesting because his stamina is very good and he just keeps punching which could get to Martinez who is 37 now and he does get a bit tired and slows down in the 2nd half of matches and when pressed alot.
