My name's Andy Clarke and I'm a boxing commentator and pundit, mainly for Sky Sports.

Macklin and Andy are back with a host of stadium fights this weekend, plus a bit of a bugbear when it comes to tune-up fights - there’s plenty to talk about.

Ben Whittaker has endured a rough ride in recent months, having flipped out of the ring in Saudi Arabia last year... a humbling end to a night that shook his swagger. But in Birmingham, he was back with fire in his belly, out for revenge against his old dance partner, Liam Cameron. The trademark flash was still there, though noticeably dialled down... a touch more grit, a little less glitz. And it worked. Whittaker got the job done in just two rounds.
Andy and Matt dive straight into the thick of it in this week’s episode of Macklin’s Take.
