By Sean McDaniel: In a clear sign of career desperation former WBO cruiserweight champion Enzo Maccarinelli (32-5, 25 KO’s) will reportedly be moving down to the light heavyweight division to try his luck at that weight to attempt to revive his sagging careers. Maccarinelli, 30, has lost four out of his last fight fights, with four of the losses coming by brutal knockout.

Enzo Maccarinelli – Not the ending he deserved
By Shaun Campbell: Firstly, I am one of many people who is a fan of Welshman Enzo Maccarinelli. He is truly one of boxing’s nice guys. In a sport where so many world champions feel the need to disrespect each other, or enjoy the good life a little too much, the past 11 years have been a refreshing change as Maccarinelli has given British fight fans so many wonderful nights.
Maccarinelli: “Maybe I’ll have another crack”
By William Mackay: Former WBO cruiserweight champion Enzo Maccarinelli might decide to continue his boxing career after being stopped in the 7th round last Saturday night against Alexander Frenkel in the Magnificent Seven card in Birmingham. Maccarinelli, who was ahead on the cards in the 7th, got sloppy and tried to trade shots with the hard hitting Frenkel.
Haye Shows His Human Side
By Kieran Gallagher: David Haye has shown a rare glimpse of his more human side after describing himself as ‘extremely upset’ by the brutal manner in which his former foe Enzo Maccarinelli was knocked out in the 7th round at LG Arena, Birmingham on 18th September.
Haye is possibly the biggest trash talker in boxing today. In the past he has described Nikolai Valuev as a circus freak and the ugliest man he has ever met, he has worn a t-shirt displaying both Klitschko brothers with decapitated heads, and more recently predicted his upcoming bout with Audley Harrison “will be more one-sided than a gang rape.”
Maccarinelli-Frenkel: Look for Alexander to destroy Enzo in four
By Scott Gilfoid: Former WBO cruiderweight champion Enzo Maccarinelli (32-4, 25 KO’s) is one of those fighters that you naturally want to see win after all the hard luck the guy has suffered in the past years with his three knockout losses. On Saturday night, the 6’4” Maccarinelli will be fighting Ukrainian Alexander Frenkel (22-0, 17 KO’s) in a fight for Maccarinelli’s EBU cruiserweight title at the LG Arena, in Birmingham. I really want Maccarinelli to do well and find success. Goodness knows, boxing needs a fighter like him with his explosive power and his exciting. Maccarinelli is like the cruiserweight version of Wladimir Klitschko.
Alexander Frenkel vs. Enzo Maccarinelli prediction
By William Mackay: In one of the better fights on the Magnificent Seven card at the LG Arena, in Birmingham, undefeated cruiserweight contender Alexander Frenkel (22-0, 17 KO’s) will be taking a big step up in competition against former World Boxing Organization cruiserweight champion and current EBU champion Enzo Maccarinelli (32-4, 25 KO’s) in a 12 round bout. Both of these fighters are deeply flawed and it’s really hard to pick a winner in this fight. Frenkel hits hard and has knockout power with either hand. However, he’s no hand speed at all and his defense is rather poor.
Maccarinelli faces Frenkel in make or break fight on Saturday
By Sean McDaniel: Former World Boxing Organization (WBO) cruiserweight champion Enzo Maccarinelli (32-4, 25 KO’s) will be defending his EBU cruiserweight title on Saturday night against unbeaten German based contender Alexander Frenkel (22-0, 17 KO’s) in the Magnificent Seven card in Birmingham.
Can the cruiserweight Super Six succeed?
By William Mackay: Promotional company Sauerland Events is interested in putting together a cruiserweight Super Six tournament with the similar idea as Showtime’s Super Six tournament for super middleweights. In this case, Sauerland is picking the cruiserweight division, one of the weakest in all of boxing to showcase six lucky fighters. The fighters that have been mentioned for the tournament are as follows: Danny Green, Steve Cunningham, Enzo Maccarinelli, Krsysztof Wlodarczyk, Marco Huck and Yoan Pablo Hernandez. I’m not sure this will work as well as the existing Super Six tournament because there’s only one American involved rather than two. I noticed that there are two German based fighters in Sauerland’s proposed cruiserweight tournament with Huck and Hernandez.
