Comments Thread For: Photo: Kevin Mitchell's Gruesome Eye Injury After TKO

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Jorge Linares successfully defended his WBC World Lightweight title in a helter-skelter clash with Kevin Mitchell at The O2 in London, live on Sky Sports Box Office.

The three-weight World champion was defending his belt for the first time but Mitchell looked set to take it from him, dropping the champion in the fifth, but terrible damage to Mitchell’s left eye hampered his attempts to win a World title at the third attempt, and when Linares dropped him in the tenth, referee Victor Loughlin stopped the contest with just three seconds left in the round – with Mitchell ahead on two cards and level on another.

Tough break for mitchell, but it had to be stopped to save him from further damage. Linares was targeting that eye too. They should have a rematch in a neutral place, one judge had Linares down by 5 rounds. lol

That was quite a fight. It could have been straight out of the pre-WW II era.

Linares put some Tekken power shots on that bad boy and shut him down with a fatal Hadouken.
