Thread: Martinez fight close- 'macklin'

Apparantly after his performance against strum and signin with dibella, macklin belives hes the best option out there for martinez?!? He's also quoted on the barker v martinez fight as saying 'on that performance he (martinez) was lucky he wasnt in with me as id of knocked him out' and 'i belive my power will be too much for him' now i like macklin, hes a good old fashioned boxer, all heart, workrate and the will to win, i thought he did well against sturm (probley even won) but where is he comin from with this And what power is he talking about? His punches were like a powderpuff girl against strum! Although he landed afew i dont think he really hurt sturm once, where as in the last round macklin was out on his feet!

He definitely deserves his shot. This should have been a unification fight.

It'll be a great fight while it lasts. Macklin will take a lead on the cards but eventually get stopped imo

The opponents being considered were Lee, Macklin, and Rubio. Similiar in level to Barker.
