Seth Mitchell vs Johnathan Banks

Honestly I can see the Banks upset. Mitchell is slow and no better than Wach.

 

This will be on HBO for those in the US.

 

I can see Banks winning, but expect Mitchell to stop him inside 5.

 

Honestly, I like Banks, he's a good guy...and while he's a good boxer, he's not near the top of the heavyweights. If Mitchell can't get past Banks with relative ease, I think you can write him off as a potential title challenger.

 

Seth's gonna walk through Banks.

Mitchell's gonna be a monster.

 

50 / 50.

This will be a VERY interesting fight.

My guess: Mitchell will swing away, and Banks will out-box him, for maybe 7-8 rounds. then Banks will tire, make a mistake, and Mitchell will trap him in a corner and get it done.

 

I'm pretty much in agreement with that. Similar to the Witherspoon fight but will go a few rounds longer.

 

I like Mitchell with work-rate. Perhaps he might fade in the business end of the fight though. I'll go with Mitchell on points, close but clear.

On another note, I really do hope Mitchell makes it past Banks. He seems like a nice person having seen some footage of him outside of the ropes. Beating Banks would set up a fight with Wladimir beautifully down the line.

 

Mitchell is going to make Banks a full time trainer.

 

Banks decision, maybe late TKO. Mitchell is an overrated can, Witherspoon had him on ***** street. Not saying banks is anything special, but he has much better fundamentals, experience and is just all around a better fighter than Seth Mitchell.

 

I don't see the hype around Mitchell, I guess some people are just desperate to see a good American HW. Mitchell looked like absolute trash in his last fight .

Ironic, Wladimir Klitschko fan berates a fighter for having a weak chin...

 

By heavyweight standards this is a really good fight, could swing either way imo but im backing Mitchell to get it done.

 

Mitchell just sucks.... Terrible chin or not, a guy like Witherspoon shouldn't give you any trouble if you're a good fighter.
