Tszyu Vs Mitchell II

[PRboxingfan]

I maintained that Mitchell wins this one easily for a long time. My argument was that Tszyu has been inactive so long and Mitchell has fought good pros in the meantime.

Then Trinidad came back; I had Mayorga for the same reason.

So I guess Tszyu could look like he hasn't missed a beat. We'll just have to see a few weeks from now.

Looks like Johnny Tapia on the televised undercard; no opponent named yet.

My thoughts, exactly. I still have Mitchell, tho, because I felt he was winning the first fight and, were it not for the knee injury, would've won. I don't think KT's inactivity level will help him, although, like Tito, it might not hurt him.

SM by UD.

How Trinidad came back has no bearing on how Tszyu would handle the layoff.

Tszyu is coming back against a very slick, quick left hander.
That's a tall order. That's the kind of guy who you need time to figure out.

my predictions mean **** because I can't pick a fight to save my ass but here goes...

KT will beat up Sharmba and stop him around the 10 or 11th. Mitchel is a very tough guy to fight, hes so damn shifty but I have to look back on their first fight. It was very close however it was only close from a judging standpoint KT was killing him in there. I know a lot of people say he was throwing Mitchel down but I have watched that fight alot, Mitchel conveniently threw himself down alot of times, it just looked like Tszyu was the bad guy. I think a fighter at some point during a fight knows wheather or not he can 1)keep up a certain pace and 2)is going to get ko'd. In the first fight I understand the knee was a problem for Mitchel but I have no doubt in my mind after watching that fight over and over and over that Sharmba knew he could not keep up with the torrid pace that KT had set and that the end was coming, he could either try and gut it out and take a serious beating or call it quits on account of the knee. Yeah his knee was probably not 100% but it got alot worse when KT stepped in the ring, KT will win, but then again my recent track record says that it looks good for a shifty sharmba mtichel, can't wait for this one!

Tzyu is gonna win this by knockout. Certainly, I have to agree that his layoff does give me pause, but apparently he's been weight training like a madman. Keep in mind that before his inactivity he was an incredibly strong 140 pounder, and I have to say that he's gonna manhandle Sharmba when they get in close, just like the first fight. Eventually, all that wear and tear on Mitchell's body (don't forget this guy is no younger than Tzyu) will force him to take the count. The kind of pressure Tzyu exerts is exactly what is needed to beat Mitchell.

Ah, yes. The time has come for Mitchell to defend his proud Mexican heritage.

What do you guys think will be the outcome.
I think Mitch has a very good chance to win, purely on his activity level compared to Kostya's.
In the 1st fight T manhandled him alot and wore him out but I thought the fight was close til Mitch's knee went and could of gone either way even though I thought T was going to win, I think mitch will pull this out with a split dec, just be slightly too slick and fresh for an older oft-injured Tszyu.

Im going for Tszyu in this fight, but I have a feeling that Mitchell will come out on top. Tszyu has just been off way to long.

make no mistake about it Prime Tszyu beats Prime Mitchell everday, but this aint Prime Tszyu.

I think Kostya Is Going to win, I have a sneeky feeling ,I Live In Australia, and I have been lucky enough to see the Trainign of Tszyu, and man he looks better then ever, he is fully ripped, fit is quick, and he is sparring with great fighters like lovemore n'dou, who alot of people thought beat mitchell a while ago, I think Mitchell isn't good enough, he punches like a fairy as well.

I go Tszyu TKO in 12

I like Tszyu and Mitchell, Kostya is a machine, but machines get rusty when they arent being used enough
