    If he gets his head right, he can beat anyone... Jokes, great fighter but too small and not strong enough to hold off the elite.

    He's ranked 7th with the IBF so he could be positioned for that but I can't see him beating Vazquez. Maybe Hearn might go for the WBA and try to get the a fight with Abril. He would struggle to get the famous Eddie Hearn "final eliminator" as he isn't ranked top ten. So really his only option is Vazquez.

    Vazquez is one tough ****er and a very good fighter... I hope I'm wrong but I just don't see Mitchell beating him... I would love to see Mitchell win a world title though.

    Unless Mitchell drags him 12 and loans those judges Ricky Burn's has been using lately?

    Mitchell would give Crawford a good fight.

    Doesn't matter who imo he isn't winning the belt unless by robbery, Vazquez, Crawford, Abril, Beltran all beat him easily don't forget Mitchell is the guy DESTROYED by Burns and Katsidis.

    After watching the interview I just think he was putting it out there, rather then saying for sure Mitchell will get a world title shot.

    When is Rose fighting next? He can't be far away from a shot. Burns camp want another title opportunity in the summer as well.

    Fact is Britain doesn't have much title winning talent at the moment.

    A well prepared Mitchell not only wins a world championship but unify the division.

    I don't think Mitchell is close to a world title fight yet my guess is the card will be Rose vs Andrade, Mcdonnel world title fight and Mitchell vs Coyle.

    Who's WBU champ? must be going that route because Mitchell doesn't deserve a title shot and more than likely ain't winning it when he does.
