Given Macklin's courage and gameness, I think it will be similar to the Rosado fight although more competitive and entertaining especially in the earlier to the middle rounds. However, the main difference will still be GGG's concussive power. Macklin will have nothing else to offer apart from his bravery and caginess. He will put in some licks on GGG but like a diesel engine, GGG will only get stronger as the fight progresses, or deteriorates into a rout beginning the 7th round.
GGG by late round stoppage.
Nightmare,
GGG knocks out Macklin before the 5th round ends. Macklin is okay, just in name. Two different fighters in two different directions. All the money and backing is behind GGG, there is no interest in Macklin other than a small following.
Boxing is about $$ and quite frankly, GGG puts fans in the seats, the same can't be said about Macklin. I'm sure Macklin is a great guy and what I've read and have seen he conducts himself as a true professional both inside and outside the ring, but we're comparing apples to oranges.
The fight will be competitive for as long as Macklin can withstand the punishment and when he can't the fight will be over.
favor GGG, with one simple reason. His overwhleming power that he possesses. If Macklin can withstand the storm, he definitely has a chance but I see a tko waiting to happen in this fight.
This is definitely not a push over fight for GGG, but if he is focused Macklin might be going to the hospital.
agree more with teodor.stoppage after the 6th but before the ninth.
i'm from the same city as maklin but i'm not bias. his chances are slim and none
Gotta agree with the guy above me...
I got GGG because of his ferocious power and I say a knockout will take place.
