    Scottish Boxers Wille Limond and Eddie Doyle are fighting for the Light Welterweight Commenwealth title on the 25th of January

    This shows how poor the standard of Commenwealth title has come, two guys who havent got a got a decent win at light welterweight between them getting a shot at the vacant title.

    Im all for scottish boxers getting a chance at a title but their are more deserving boxers than these two.

    Craig McEewan is a good fighter. That 3 bout "novice" who beat him went to the 2002 commonwealth games for Nigeria and has been an active amateur ever since that entering competitions like the ABA's where you box 3x3's and can box more than once in a day. He had been in the gym for years and had been at a high level for over 10 years and took a more season pro by suprise over 3x3s.
