“It’s going to be a greatexperience,” said Douglin, who was working hard in the gym to make adjustmentsfollowing a shocking loss to iron fisted spoiler Doel Carrasquillo. “Ioverlooked my last opponent and working with a world class fighter like Macklinwill show me what I have to do to become one of the best.”

Douglin’s return to thesquared circle is expected to come in late April or early May.
