Scotland's best prospect at the moment Craig McEwan gets a good match up when he fights San Diegos James Parison on the Bute vs Andrade 2 undercard.
McEwan who left Scotland to train with Freddy Roach is a brillaint prospect. A tall lanky southpaw with a classical boxing style. I will be honest i know nothing about Parison's except what McEwan has said about him:
" Jamie Parison is greatly admired as a boxer over here but I believe that I have enough artillery in my arsenal to beat him."
McEwan has been working hard in the LA Wildcard gym and looks tobe improving in every fight. He has started getting more coverage mainly headlining an ESPN Friday Night Fight vs Darnell Boone earlier this year. This is another great oppertunity for the Scot to showcase his talent. This is the first time he has fought since his mooted bout with Vernon Forrest fell through due to the atrocious death of Forrest.
I can not anaylisise this fight but look for it to be a chance for Craig to showcase himself to a wide audience and make his homeland proud. He is just on the verge of cracking the Light Middleweight top 10. And expect McEwan with a superstar team behind him consisting of Golden Boy promotions as his promoter and Freddy Roach as his manager, he looks destined for success. Promoter De La Hoya has alot of faith in Craig:
"Oscar dropped into The Wildcard and as soon as he saw that I was there he came straight over to speak to me and wish me well. He told me that he would be in Quebec next Saturday to cheer me on!"
Explains McEwan.
Scottish boxing has a bright future ahead with Craig leading the way.
