He stopped the previously unstopped Timur Ibragimov in devastating fashion.
He knocked Chazz Witherspoon out after being in a bit of trouble early.
He has some highlight reel knockouts on ESPN, clobbering people unconscious with his right hand.


If Ali had fought Cooper in this day and age, people would be sporting this as their avatar:

And trolling Ali for his "glass jaw".


Seems like you american fans are afraid to get behind your heavyweights because you don't see success in them.... its quite distasteful.

After the Witherspoon fight gave Mitchell so much unnecessary shite I used this exact same example.

"HAHAHAH This is the guy people think beats Wlad? He got hurt by Chazz Witherspoon!"

"Liston's going to murder this kid who nearly gets starched by Cooper. Glass jaw+Liston power = Shattered glass."

Old school fight fans who know the sport,they get it.
Tor Hamer for example. He was a prospect and then he suffered one decision loss and people forgot about him. But he came back and won the UK prizefighter and has developed into a damn good boxer/puncher who creates angles and has been stoppin' people early of recent.
one or two losses is nothing and people who know the history of Boxin' understand that.

Mitchell gets some solid support, as did Arreola until he showed up out of shape and let fans down.

We're not the UK. We don't get sucked into hype as easily. If any of those guys was British there would be ATG threads and claims that every fighter was ducking them.

Let's hope Froch gets smashed by Yusaf.

And yeah UK loves hype,look at Haye. Haye is a legend over there and like most legends,we hear of it but never see it.

And of course David Price is the nest HW champ because he beat up John Mcdermott.

Froch has accomplished more than these guys. But Ricky Burns is about their same level and look at how the Brits rave about him.

And also his stamina issues have reappeared with the first fight after the loss of the great Manny Steward. Wlad was breathing erratically in the second half of the fight. As much as Wlad does he just has never seemed like the champ.
Something about him. It's like he has false confidence. He can unravel at anytime.

What's your point, OP? Must us Americans become delusional like the Brittards, in order to be true fans? How silly.

I'm a major supporter of Wilder, although his last opponent was beyond embarrassing. - But I don't go around shouting that he could beat K2 next week. - because I'm not an idiot.

I "support" Mitchell, I just don't think he can ever be top-10. Does this bother you, OP?

And how could you leave Bryant Jennings off your list? He has arguably the most potential of all the American HW's, short of Wilder.

He'd rather fight them than "fisher price"

and that's all you need to know

price keeps saying he's not ready !

1 flush shot to the jaw can spell doom to his career

Never seen anyone clinch like Waldo whenever he gets hit clean
