    Just spoke to Mark Tibbs and he said the spars were even. When they first sparred Ricky got the better of him because Kevins fitness levels were not up to scratch.

    Sparring is sparring, one man can be in tip top shape the other can be lacking fitness wise etc.

    Ask me who I'd stick my money on if these two ever fought at LW and I'd back Mitchell to come out on top. That isn't to say Ricky isn't a top fighter though, I've been following his fights for a while now and he's come on leaps and bounds - which is a credit to himself, his trainer and his team. I just hope we can start seeing him in bigger fights as soon as possible.

    Not true mate,they only sparred 2 days, the same applied to Ricky with regards to fitness.Both Jimmy and Mark fine well know who got the better of the sparring.Both are very good lads and if they were to meet what a fight it would be,but my monies clearly on Ricky.:think

    If?

    Billy, why have you been combative over who Ricky's fighting these last few months? And why have you defended such awful opposition, especially with what's happening now?

    Billy to be fair you would think Ricky would have a chance against a prime Mike Tyson.
