    Default macklin v GGG

    i see this as a similar situation as when bute fought froch

    bute was looking good knocking everyone out and froch was seen as the underdog despite being the man who had been in the ring with much the better quality

    there are a few differences tho

    Froch is generally harder than macklin
    GGG hits harder than bute

    i think macklin has a much better chance in this than a lot of people are making out

    That time my money was on Froch
    This time my money is on GGG

    I think Macklin has the ability to put him under pressure which will make it interesting. I still think Golovkin looks like a fighter that could crumble when things go against him. However, I also wouldn't be surprised if Macklin was bombed out early, Golovkin really does look a sicko puncher.

    Haha - I'm terrible for that.

    I think Golovkin will iron him out inside 8 rounds. I just hope Macklin puts him under it, to see how Golovkin reacts, before getting flattened.

    Under dog? I have Macklin as favorite.


    GGG hasn't fought nearly the same quality. His best scalp? Gzregorz Proksa probably.
    You say tomato,

    Haha Macklin fav you crazy bastard. Whos Macklins best scalp? Asikainen? Varon? Proksa is still better then them. Id love to see Macklin do it but Golovkin beats him in every department, strenght, speed, boxing skills, experience.
