Looking forward to Huey Malone kicking off his pro career tonight with @FrankWarren @Queensberry in Nottingham on the undercard of Cacace/Wood.

Tonight is going to be the beginning of an exciting journey!👊🏻

[matthew macklin @mattmacklin]

Great event/fight last night. Credit to both men, they fought their hearts out.

Both of them gave every last bit of themselves in that ring.

Eubank used his experience with his tenacity to old man Benn out of it in those last couple of rounds. Fair/right decision

[matthew macklin @mattmacklin]

Brilliant performance from Whittaker.

He was under massive pressure to deliver tonight & he did, in style! Looked very sharp from the first bell.

Initially I thought the stoppage was a little premature but having seen it on replay, I thought the ref got it right.

[matthew macklin @mattmacklin]

It’s all on the line. Can Ben Whittaker live up to the hype? 🤔

[matthew macklin @mattmacklin]

Career on the line? 😬 So much at stake between Ben Whittaker and @liamcameron21 in their highly anticipated rematch 🍿

New Macklin’s Take out now 🎧 @MrAndyClarke

[matthew macklin @mattmacklin]

The referee should not be moving the boxers arms. It’s dangerous and puts the fighter in a vulnerable position. End of.

[matthew macklin @mattmacklin]

Ref, WTF!? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Pulled his hand down and then he got caught which was the turning point of the fight!

[matthew macklin @mattmacklin]

Advantage @ChrisEubankJr ? 🤔 Will the mind games pay off or are these tactics simply stoking the fire within @ConorNigel 👀

[matthew macklin @mattmacklin]

Both fear and confidence will be the key if Lauren Price is to upset Tasha tonight. 🗝️

Nerves helped me through my biggest fights!

[matthew macklin @mattmacklin]

Fine margins make all the difference 🤏 Will this be a story of experience verses youth between @ChrisEubankJr and @ConorNigel 🤔

Losing a close fight to a top fighter doesn’t make you a bad one. Glad to see Zhang going straight into another big fight! 🥊

[matthew macklin @mattmacklin]

Usyk-Fury, another close fight. Cards wider than I had it but the right man won.
Wasn’t the epic battle many of us were predicting beforehand but it was an absorbing, fast paced chess match between 2 top class operators.
And Moses Itauma is the future of the heavyweight division!
