Seth Mitchell vs. Charles Davis - (undercard fight of Saul Alvarez-Hatton)

Its nice to see a guy like Seth come out of nowhere completely unhearalded, but this fight is a huge step backwards.

 

Its good to see Mitchell staying somewhat active.I wouldn't say Davis is a big step backwards. He's a veteran trialhorse who pulls the occasional upset and Davis will give him rounds and thats what Mitchell needs. After another fight or two on this level it would be nice to see Mitchell look for a small step up and see what he has.

 

He's already got some decent wins against Taurus Sykes, Jack Page and Johnny White. So the man is definately one of the tougher prospects out there.

 

I'm pretty sure HBO is only televising Ponce De Leon vs. Broner from the undercard.

It's too bad Mitchell hasn't really gotten any screen time yet. Even if he isn't destined for greatness, it would be a good adrenaline shot in the arm for American boxing audiences to see a quality domestic HW prospect to get excited about.

 

And the thing is, the man comes to fight, unlike a lot of other alleged "prospects" both here and across the pond who only want to fight one-eyed hell's angels, moonlighting cab drivers, construction workers, crash test dummies, and the living dead.
