    Can't really blame warren. What else could he have done? To get to the WBO belt, they had to take the Katsidis route. But, yeah did notice the shoulder roll. Floyd does it beautifully. Shame for Mitchell. Really wanted him to win. But credit to Katsidis.

      Also, watch Khan come out and say something, unless I already missed it.
      Well Mitchell did have the audacity to call out Khan in the first place, Instead of concentrating on Katsidis he was dreaming of a fight with Khan which will never happen now.

      Khan is a A+ world class fighter, Mitchell is a good domestic fighter.

        Mitchell had nothing behind that jab.

        Like Tibbs said;

        Jab,jab, jab, combo, jab, jab, BIG ONE.

        When Mitchell was on the backfoot he needed to keep that jab going, then come in with a big right straight.

            to be honest his punches looked very week, there was no snap in that jab, and the few power shots he threw didn't look very hard at all, i just don't think he's strong enough for 135

              Mitchell was way over doing it with the Khan comments. Also his dismissal of the warnings from Graham Earl have come back to bite him and bite him BIG time. At least Earl ad Katsidis down.

                Man I do not get it. The Philly shell is something you have to start using as soon as you start boxing. It is not something you can learn in a few training camps at all.

                  agree with this. His punches lacked the pop like Katsidis.

                    He did it pretty well in round 2. He just got caught at the begining of round 3 and couldn't get his **** together.

                      The thing is Khan and Mitchell were "friends", Until he left Warren to sign for Goldenboy, Then Mitchell forgot about that friendship started trash talking about Khan, Calling him out, Especially since he won the fight with Prescott by running around the ring for 12 rounds.

                      He got ahead of himself, And he got exposed by Katsidis, I lost all respect for Mitchell when he backstabbed Khan.
