Protected Fighters from a certain Country....Good Luck Macklin...Do use proud FELLA
I think the biggest culprits that overprotect fighters with dodgy decisions must be Germany, notorius for bad home decisions for their overprotected fighters like Sven Ottke & Felix Sturm....Sturm will again get a dodgy home decision against are boy Macklin....fair play to Macklin for having the guts to go over there and show the world he has got what it takes to win away even though he will get a dubious decision loss
So I am giving Germans or Sturm supports notice about this and say "SHAME ON YOU"........what a shame you have to CHEAT against our boy once again......UTTER UTTER SHAME!!!!
job biscuit (The above)!!!
eh eh!!!

Really want Macklin to win he is a fit and aggressive fighter and hope he get the decision over in Germany. Strum is in a comfort zone which he needs to get out from and hopefully losing his title will do that. Macklin has to force the action in order to win.

We see Germany learned pretty well from good ol US of A. :lickish:
(ps: someone get a tissue for original poster quick,lol)

I'm rooting for Macklin big time because I want to see unification in the middleweight division and I don't think it happens with Sturm as a titleholder. But, does Macklin have a real chance? Will he do any better than Ronald Hearns did?

I do too. I want the Sturm era to end as soon as possible or we'll have another 5 years of the middleweight champion fighting nobody's in Germany. I see Pirog going the same route, which is a shame. One key fight in the US (Danny Jacobs) and he's content to fight in Russia against subpar competition. Titov Talks Dmitry Pirog, Provodnikov, Gusev and More - Boxing News
War Macklin.

Macklin going to get battered on Saturday. Another Hearns-esque stoppage. He's overrated. Hope he wins, though. I do like some British fighters. Honest.

It's well known that in germany you have to KO the hometown fighter just to get a draw.

No I say it because it's true. They just happen to be British. Unlike you, nationality doesn't come into it with me. I can just tell when a fighter is overrated and about to receive a can of whoop ass.

i think you want to be american, i think thats the issue
if it helps on the whole, englishmen are much cooler than americans
with that in mind are you more comfortable with your nationality now?
Re: Protected Fighters from a certain Country....Good Luck Macklin...Do use proud FEL
Ottke vs Reid was the worst reffing i have ever seen, i honestly will never forget it.
We see dodgy decisions everywhere it just happens a lot more in Germany and in big fights.
The Dallas v Page fight the other week was pretty shoddy just got brushed under the carpet as it wasn't a 'big' fight. Dallas got levelled against Price not long after though.

I'd rather be Puerto Rican if I'm honest.
