Comments Thread For: Will McEwan Fight Be Trick or Treat For Peter Quillin?

BIGPOPPAPUMP

By Ryan Maquiñana - Unbeaten middleweight Peter Quillin (25-0, 19 KOs) is leaving nothing to chance heading into the biggest fight of his career this Saturday in Cancun against Craig McEwan (19-1, 10 KOs) in what will mark the HBO debut for “Kid Chocolate.”

“I prepare for every fight like it’s on HBO,” the No. 7-ranked 160-pounder in the WBA told BoxingScene. “Come November 5th, I’m going to show why there’s been so much chitter-chatter about me.”

Always looking for an edge to take his career to unforeseen heights, Quillin took a page out of Homer’s book and has carved a circuitous path to the cusp of stardom in his 28 years of age. Originally born in Chicago, his family moved to Grand Rapids, Michigan, during his early childhood, which was a tumultuous period for him.

“My dad was a political prisoner in Cuba and came to this country,” Quillin told MaxBoxing in February. “He ended up becoming a drug dealer and tried to provide. He thought it was the best way to deal with things. He ended up in prison [for six and a half years] and my whole life changed.

the more footage i watch of quillin the more worried i am he will KO mcewan. . .

he is fleeter of hand and foot than i initially thought, and he does have that next level power. . . but i still feel mcewan is a more natural boxer with more rhyme and reason. . . i can see why quillin is the favorite, but mcewan has got this!

i'm curious to see if Mcewen plans to box him or swarm him. I think he could have success with either and should be a close fight no matter what but the pressure style he used against Lee and smothering Quillen may have its advantages.
