Matthew Macklin has pulled out of his middleweight clash with Jorge Sebastien Heiland in Dublin due to his lead trainer Jamie Moore being shot twice in the legs in Marbella. British-born Macklin was looking to secure a fourth world title chance in what was billed as an official eliminator for the WBC crown at 160lbs.


However, the Irish favourite has postponed the bout, which would have taken place on August 30 at the National Stadium, after Moore's attack in Spain.
