    katsidis to earn the right

    i see mitchell has started a twitter campaign to get burns in the ring lol , hey kevin prove you are world class and fight katsidis who knocked you senseless in 3 rounds....beat him and then challenge burns.

    but would mitchell have the balls to fight katsidis again....i dont think so , he already took the easy way out by saying ricky did what he should have done vs katsidis lol....easy to say that on paper kevin.

    burns vs somebody in london or glasgow with mitchell vs katsidis as an eliminator..im sure boxnation would take this on

    Yeah, he should really earn his shot. Like Burns did against Al Hamidi.

    It's a good fight, just get it on.

    Mitchell should have to beat everyone that Burns has beat. Evensen, Laryea, the lot. (no Khan)

    Mitchell has just beaten Murray. I' don't really see why people think Mitchell is so far away from being allowed a shot at Burns

    And what pulling power does Ricky Burns have to be at the center of an eliminaton fight ?? :huh

    Matching is about timing and momentum , right now Burns Mitchell is the right fight to make

    I think a win over an unbeaten Murray is deserving enough to get a shot.

    Not true he asked for a rematch the day after the fight,so let kevin fight him and the winner fights Ricky outdoor in the summer

    No to earn his original shot against Martinez. If Ricky fights someone who is more qualified than Mitchell then fair enough, but I bet he doesn't.

    Well said Billy, although I have a sinking feeling in my stomach that this fight will happen...

    & I like Mitchell, but everyone is acting like cos he beat that no-mark Murray, thats a big win? Not in my eyes it aint.:nono Good win cos people thought Murray was better than he was, including Murray himself, but not a biggie by any stretch of the imagination.

    This is what i dont get.......


    I reckon his Prescott win (Mitchell) was more impressive.......Murray is one dimensional.......Prescott was a concern.....and is now.

    If McAllister didnt get tasty......he would of out pointed/scored/boxed him.


    Maybe i need to re-watch McA Vs Murray ?


    One of the best post-fight ringside interviews i seen :lol:
