    I think Mitchell has a lot of work to do if he wants to step it up to the next level. It was a cracking fight to watch however.

      Theres no doubt Mitchell is a great talent, he was ABA champion, very aggressive but has been moved a little to slow for my liking, he's been a pro for 5 years now. I like Kevin but i heard through the g****vine that he's been strutting about on the town a bit too much on the lash. I dont think Kevin is overhyped and with good sparring and coaching he could make an impact on the world scene (just get rid of Warren)

        Mitchell looked like Mayweather for the first three rounds...then what the **** happend?

        lol.

        Everything went out the window and he took some bombs. One's things for sure that guy looks to have a world class chin. He jumped into one from Carl, I thought it was going to be like the Hatton KO, but I swear he threw a punch a split second later, he was probably still airborne.

        He might be my new favourite fighter.
        i thought he was a bit to, he used the elbow a lot. lol

          who do you think he fights like?

          I think he should fight Arthur after he most likely gets worked by Guzman.

          I think he'll be world champ. His defence was ace in the first three rounds, then **** knows. But he proved to have chin on him, could possibly be world class once he steps up. He took every shot in the book **** on the chin.......about 20 showstoppers at least.

          Kid's a beast.

            i'd like to see him fight foster next then have a easy fight after that as a warm up fight for the europe title fight with Sergey Gulyakevich. then have a few fights with top 10 work ranked then aurther. If he can get past all that there is possible fights with pacman ect....

                  That was a cracking left hook that Mitchell landed.

                    Yeah kids got talent but he still needs to settle down in his boxing and be prepared to box the full 12, he gave his all for 3 rds then faded but then he's always been like that, even in the amateurs he came out like a ****ing rocket. At the end of this year he'll be heading for his 6th year as a pro and he will need to be mixing with world ranked opposition by then. This kid is too good for Warren to waste him.
