Sorry Jamie, I have to ask you this question.
What was the toughest fight for you.... Jones 3 or Macklin.
As a fight fan, although I can see it as a backward step for youself I wouldn't mind you and Jones doing it again. You have his number, but two of the three fights have been British greats and second one was shaping up nicely untill the incident.

Toughest fight for me physically was probably Macklin, but mentally both we're tough, because I had problems outside of boxing. For the Jones fight my wife had just had our little boy 5 weeks before and I'd hardly seen him, plus my Nan was ill in hospital throughout my training and she died 2 days before the fight, and I sat and watched her pass away, so I had a lot to cope with mentally. And to top it all off I had whiplash from sparring!!! Before Macklin I had problems with my shoulder...again...so couldn't do everything I wanted in the gym. Then I got cut sparring underneath my left eye 10 days before the fight and had to have 4 stitches! I only had them out on the monday before the fight. Think the experience of going through the stuff before the Jones fight helped me cope with the stuff before Macklin. Hope that's answered your question. Hiya Tez, hope your ok pal. By the way, it's took me about 8 hours to write this so I hope there's no more questions!!!
