Apparently terms have been agreed for this to take place on the 12th may according to secondsout.com. This should be a cracking fight - big respect to macklin for taking it - he could have waited for moore to vacate the british title and then taken out a softer touch for the vacant title. Moore has been in with better competition but macklin has been on a hot streak of late and is coming off a first rnd ko win last time against former amateur star alexey chirkov.
A real pick 'em i reckon. I swear british boxing is really on the up man! A few years back fighters in moore and macklin's position would definitely have found ways to duck each other ala the previous light middle generation.
