    I agree but with Prizefighter you can't take anything for granted. I also believe this might suit Craig and his obvious stamina issues, he will be able to work hard for the 3 rounds and get a decent rest before his next bout.

    Agree that Craig is the best fighter is the comp but like you say in Prizefighter you need a bit of luck also. I know he's been working with a strength and conditioning coach most days for the past few months so we should see an improvement on the stamina side, he's taking his fitness much more seriously since the Lee defeat. Lot of people writing him off so hopefully get some decent odds on him at the bookies.

    Spot on Marky, he has a real chance in this, the format should suit him.

    He is in tip top shape BA, he was back in the gym on saturday morning! He knows this is his big chance and if he wins he has been promised another shot at Rose, providing he comes through against Webb of course. Really looking forward to it, just gutted i cant make it down as i had already booked Hatton and Froch before he knew he was gonna be in about a month ago. York Hall is on my "to do list"

    I like the introduction of £2k if you stop your opponent.

    Larry Ekundayo has been named the 11/10 fav. according to this video. Shocked by that.

    McEwan is favorit, 2.72. Larry is 5. Kris Carsley is more of a favorit than Larry. How can you do nothing four ten years? Has he been in the jail? Something fishy about Larry non of his fights on utube or nothin.

    I got a bad feeling for Craig in this one. He's been on the sidelines a little long for my liking and I'm not sure this is the ideal opportunity for him back at domestic level. He's too easy to hit, I can see him getting taken out.

    I dunno man, I think the kid got real talent. Hate to use the term but a lot of it didn't look overly contrived - it did look natural. He had a natural feel for slipping an opponents shot and making him pay, which ain't easy. Could work well with guys coming at him.

    I don't think McEwan is all that good, to be honest.

    A lot of his reputation comes from most probably being smacked around in the Wild Card and beating a bunch of nobodies waaayyyy down on some undercard across the pond.

    He's got no form domestically at all, other than gassing and being stopped against Average Andy.

    McEwan's a mixed up fighter to me. I find it hard to gauge what he thinks he's trying to do in the ring. What is his identity? He seems to be a mixture of a lot of different things he's probably seen in the gym that he's not properly implementing and together it just makes for a lot of technical errors.
