	'''Matthew Macklin''' (born 14 May 1982 in Birmingham, England) is a professional boxer of Irish extraction, his father being from County Roscommon and his mother from County Tipperary. Macklin usually fights at light middleweight or the divisions either side.

	==~~Background~~==
	~~Macklin and his brother, Seamus, who is also a boxer, spent much~~ of ~~his youth in his grandparents' native County Tipperary (his mother was born in Birmingham UK) and it was there that he learned to play~~ Ireland's national sport, hurling. Macklin became a talented hurling player in his own right and represented County Tipperary, a leading team in Irish hurling, at all age levels up to Under 21 inter-county level. Macklin is still a close friend of leading hurler Eoin Kelly. To compound the hurling connection, Macklin's father came from Four Roads, one of the few areas in Co. Roscommon, where hurling is the no. 1 sport, and he often cites this as a major influence on his interest in the game.

	~~Macklin still attends hurling events such as the Poc fada or when The Premier County are playing.~~

	~~In 2001, Macklin won the English Senior ABA Welterweight~~ title ~~at the age of 18, whilst studying law at Coventry University, with a victory against veteran Justin Turley.~~

	~~==Professional career==~~

	~~===The Jamie Moore barnstormer===~~
	In September 2006, Macklin was involved in his highest profile fight to date when he was defeated in a fight of the year contender bout against Manchester's [[Jamie Moore]] for the British Light Middleweight Title which took place at the George Carnell Leisure Centre, Davyhulme, Manchester, England.

	*[[WBC]] International super welterweight title		*[[WBC]] International super welterweight title
	*[[IBF]] Inter-Continental middleweight title		*[[IBF]] Inter-Continental middleweight title
