In 2006, Matthew Macklin was knocked out by Jamie Moore in the 10th round of an action-packed British junior middleweight title fight. When Macklin heads into his next fight, it will be his old foe Moore manning the corner as his head trainer. Sounds a little like Apollo Creed training Rocky Balboa or Micky Ward training Arturo Gatti, doesn't it? Macklin (29-5, 20 KOs), an Irishman from England, is coming off a third-round knockout on a crushing body shot on June 29 in a middleweight world title bout against Gennady Golovkin and makes his return to face Willie Nelson (21-1-1, 12 KOs) on Dec.
