Comments Thread For: Shaw: Seth Mitchell Should Recall Lennox Lewis’ Loss

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Promoter Gary Shaw didn’t have a fighter on HBO’s televised co-feature on Saturday night — he was in Atlantic City to see his lightweight titleholder Antonio DeMarco face Adrien Broner in the main event — but he nevertheless had advice for Seth Mitchell following the heavyweight prospect’s second-round loss to Johnathon Banks.

“I represented Lennox Lewis when we first fought [Hasim] Rahman in South Africa, and he went down and they probably could’ve counted to 60 and they’d still be counting,” Shaw said. “And he came back and was better than ever and greater than ever. So to you, Seth, don’t give up, don’t give up the dream, and I’m sure you’ll come back.”

I guess. Difference is Lewis was a very polished gold-medalist professional fighter. Mitchell may just be too fundamentally flawed.

I wouldn't be surprised if this was Mitchell's last fight.

mitchell has been getting rocked in his last few fights, I dont think his chin is all that good to compete at the elite level.

Lewis was already champ when he got beat. Mitchell just doesn't have it, losing to a guy who's probably not even a top ten HW.

Just a small difference...

Seth should get a rematch with Banks to prove he is the better fighter but I have a feeling that GBP is going to feed him 2-3 scrubs to boost his confidence back up again before fighting a good HW

No the difference is Lennox is a top 5 ATG HW that pisses away more talent every morning than Seth ever had his entire life.

This entire thread is a ***ing joke.

Lewis is a 6'5-6'6 245 pound ATG who got fluke by Rahman because he was thinking of a 30 million dollar pay day against Tyson.
He came back and buried Rahman.

Mitchell is a nobody compare to one of Lennox's VICTIMS, much less Lennox himself.

Tommy Morrison, who young Lennox beat half to death would have destroyed Mitchell.
