I'd like to see him face mundine myself, that's if pavlik and sturm don't face him anytime soon. He needs to get his skates on.
I think Darren Barker is the likeliest. Although it's possible Macklin won't risk Barker pulling out again and will look for an eliminator if the opportunity presents itself. Macklin v Lee is very unlikely imo.
I think Barker vs Macklin is more than likely for warrens december bill. If not there will be guys queing up to fight Macklin after Saturdays performance!!!
If that is true then it seems likely that it is MAcklin on the Warren show but to me this seems unlikely. He was on 'on the ropes' and didn't mention anything.
If Macklin ia fighting for a belt on December 11th it will be Pirog (WBO). Sylvester has a fighter end of October, Martinez end of November and theres no way Warren has the budget to get Strum out of Germany.
barker vs macklin still has to happen and if he is scheduled to fight on the audley-haye undercard then the chances are this will be re-scheduled for that date
I think he may get his world title shot very soon one way or another otherwise I want to see him fight Andy Lee.
Cannot see the Lee fight happening. It only makes sense if they do it in Ireland and Warren december show is in London.
