Both lads look in top shape, should be a cracker.
As my sig would suggest, I'm a big Mitchell fan and will in turn be more in his favour, but I'm anticipating a good scrap first and foremost.

I think Mitchell could have become a new Hatton if he had beaten Katsidis, that 20k crowd at Upton Park was no joke.
What we also know about Mitchell is that he will fight anybody so a win tomorrow would set him on his way to big things.
Ricky is big up here, but I'm not sure about the UK as a whole. He seems to get overlooked a lot when people talk about British fighters.

If Mitchell does win he can become a big star in the UK. He's from London (which helps with the media etc), has a ready made fan base in West Ham fans and is a good talker.
