Any word on Kevin Mitchell's next opponent?

[Sparked_1985]

Hopefully someone decent.

Please no fighters from the commonwealth.

[The Surgeon]

Gotta be someone good and rated, no sense losing the momemntum of the Prescott loss and going backwards

[BritishBoxing92]

willie limond by any chance?......hahah joke

[Irish Hitman]

Juan Diaz 2 of the top lightweights going at it!

[Sparked_1985]

should be one of these I guess, discounting any of those who we know are tied up.

1 Kevin Mitchell (Int-Cont) GB
2 Jorge Barrios (Latino Int.) ARG
3 Ali Funeka SA
4 Anthony Peterson USA
5 Martin Honorio (NABO) MEX
6 Rolando Reyes USA
7 John Murray GB
8 Daniel Dorrego (Latino) ARG
9 Vicente Escobedo MEX
10 Marco Antonio Barrera MEX
11 Moises Solis NIC
12 Thai Tor Silachai (Oriental) THAI
13 Santos Martinez NIC
14 Petr Petrov RUS
15 Dmitry Ganiev (Asia-Pacific Int.)

The WBO top 15 discounting Marquez and Katsidis obviously.

[The Surgeon]

Cant see it happening but John Murray would make for a great fight

[Sparked_1985]

I reckon it might be this guy:

Petr Petrov
Global ID 22610
sex male
birth date 1983-03-28
age 26
manager/agent register
division super featherweight
rating 23 / 1100
1 / 14
stance orthodox
height 5′ 7″ / 170cm
alias Zar
nationality Russia
residence Madrid, Comunidad de Madrid, Spain
birth place Russia
won 25 (KO 10) + lost 2 (KO 0) + drawn 2 = 29
rounds boxed 159 KO% 34.48


I put my Frank Warren head on, and this is the guy I'd pick only had one 12 rounder and is ranked 14th in the lightweight division despite campaigning at super feather. Nice unbeaten record into the bargain, moderate power.

Could be Alex Arthur.

Keep me posted, Sparked since you got me to join his bandwagon.

I watched some clips of him and I really like what I see.

His fight against Johansson is golden.

The good thing about Mitchell is he has a great chin so it will ensure he is in some classic tear-ups.

willie limond by any chance?......hahah joke

you say that but i read in boxing news that they offered a feb 13th fight to limond but he said no cos it was too short notice.
