    Barry, this is the pros.McEwan has adapted to the professional game better than either Lee or Duddy. His performances against Parison and Andrews were better than anything Lee and Duddy have been doing recently.
    Elvis, your statement about Belghecham being better than anyone Craig has ever fought is laughable and indicative of your ignorance of the subject. Even Ivan Stovall would beat him, as would Parison, Andrews,Vera and Boone. Europe based boxers are always rated too high on boxrec, if thats what your using to make comparisons.

    Oh Barry, just watch the two Vera fights on youtube. Even an unfit Craig looked a class above Lee.

    Ive quality versions of both their fights against vera downloaded on to my computer and ive seen them both about 20 times each.....
    Lee was doing great until he decided to brawl and forget his boxing skills which are miles better than mcewans when andy decides to use them. unfortunately lee gassed in round 5 and the rests is history.....
    Lee would beat mcewan if they fought right now and he would put vera to sleep something mcewan would never be able to do in his wildest dreams with him being feather fisted and all............

    My ignorance? He was rated higher anyone Craig has ever fought. So maybe you would like to explain to me how I am ignorant on the subject.

    Look, you are Craig McEwan's friend and PR dude here. So I can see why you want to talk up his resume etc. But don't start insulting me for stating some facts. It's funny that you accuse me of being ignorant yet you go on to suggest Boxrec rates Euro fighters higher. Boxrec ranking are computerised so nationality has absolutely no affect on rating. He was rated higher than Vera before he lost to Lee and then Barker. FACT. Not saying he is very good but he is still better than Vera.

    I actually like Craig McEwan, but people like you are putting me off him now to be perfectly frank. Your PR work leaves a lot to be desired.

    Between Taylor and Lee I wondered if Steward took a hands off to conditioning.

    Dont hate on craig mcewan because of grendal lads because craig mcewan comes across as much more modest than grendal .... craig said before his fight against brian vera that andy lee just had a off night and that he knew andy very well and said he would give vera movement something andy didnt and to be fair he did......

    Andy just made some rookie mistakes with Vera. He got drug into a brawl with a bigger/stronger brawler.

    The irony is that the loss probably saved his career. All he had to do was beat Vera, and Arum was ready to sign him for 3 fights. Two fights on Pavlik undercards, and a fight with the champ.

    At that point in time KP would have stood him on his head in 3 rounds, and probably ruined him. Because of the loss he has had the chance to back away from Steward's hype, and develop his potential.

    I'm Irish and to be honest I think Lee is ****. Pavlik would molest him, as would any of the MW champions. I just think he'll never be a world beater.

    why not, im sure pavlik will fight him and probably ko him, man to save his lost momentum pavlik should be fighting every other mth this year anywhere he can, ohio stadium, ac, overseas, wherever he can
