Mitchell is THE guy. He has power,he has ok hand speed. He gets better with each fight and he is smart,a college graduate. He's a natural athlete and his trainer isn't some dumb thug guy either. His trainer is a smart old school kind of boxing coach. Haye can't beat Mitchell. Haye barely beat Monte Barrett.
:rofl:rofl:rofl Sorry, your wit is just too much for me. I can't compete with such a superior mind. How DO you come up with this stuff!?!?! If you mention teeth or rainy weather then I'm done for, I'll have to log off and come back under a new username. You've ripped me to pieces
vnyc is a fountain of knowledge, he's just too much. I've given up trying with him, he's just too damn intelligent for me.
Think we need to see alot more of Mitchell before we can say either way. He has yet to fight a top 20 HW. Right now Toney Thompson might school him.
Mitchell is abysmal from what I've seen. Strong and powerful, but stiff, rigid, and slow. The fact that he's considered one of the best up-and-comers speaks volumes about the state of the heavyweight division.
Seth Mitchell is almost like a HW Tavoris Cloud, except with a bit more boxing skill and a bit less p4p power. Wrong style to beat Wladimir (not that there really is a right one at this stage) but anything can happen in boxing. He'd have more of a chance of landing a big game changer than did Mormeck, or Haye, or most other recent contestants.
Mitchell should be fighting guys like David Rodriguez and Michael Grant, forget Helenius, Chagaev, or even Huck.
Seth Mitchell has still not fought past round six in his entire career - let alone against quality opposition. Let him have a few fights that go at least ten rounds against journeyman level opposition before you talk about putting him in with Povetkin for the wba fake strap (tm) - let alone a Klitschko.
Haven't you guys noticed how often Mitchell gets hit with the right? He cannot block a right hand. Period. Mitchell is also confused in center ring...he has to think too hard to figure out how to react. Mitchell will be KO'd fast and hard if he ever fights Vlad.
