Tonight, Matthew Macklin faces off against Amin Asikainen for the vacant European middleweight title as boxing mad Manchester has reached fever pitch.
Headlining "Euro Glory", Macklin, 24-2 (17), will finally have the opportunity to reach his potential in this tough showdown with former title holder Asikainen, 26-2 (17).
