Seth Mitchell exposed

He might. He might not. If it happens I'll take it on the chin. Until it does I'll praise and criticise him accordingly.

 

Okay fair enough!:good

 

Next fragile mandible to get exposed?

Deontay Wilder. Like Mitchell, he's just a KO waiting to happen. :nod

 

C'mon, you have threads like this when a beltholder/champ losses - even an older one ripe for the taking.
"I always thought that <insert name> was overrated" :huh
Watch the huge threads of delerium if an old Vitali or aging Wlad losses b4 retiring... and Mitchell was an HBO hype job KTFO by a beefed up CW and one of Wlads trainers

That's just the way many fight fans are. However in this case it's expected given the US hype.

 

I would add Price and Fury to that list. Both are Glass Jawed frauds.

 

Something I would add to your comment is that Mitchell is now dead from a marketing/promotional perspective. His credibility is ruined. Fans will no longer want to watch him on TV. Promoters and TV executives will have no incentive to continue selling Mitchell to the public.

Look for GB to drop Mitchell in the near future. He'll be on clubside after that, assuming he doesn't retire.

 

funny that no1 is giving banks credit...but yea mitchell's chin is unreal. must be something about maryland fighters & poor chins...hasbeen rock comes to mind.

 

they are nerds and need to find ways to make themselves happy

 

Im made up for Banks. People can talk about Mitchell being absolutely **** but I don't buy it. He was extremely overhyped but at the end of the day he still had a couple of decent wins over Ibrahimov and 'Spoon, which is a lot more than Wilder has done.

 

I agree with this.

I don't understand why fans gloat when a guy who is good for boxing gets 'exposed'. Mitchell is an exciting fighter, he has lots of power, he's aggressive and outside of the ring, he seems to be a really nice guy. Why would anyone gloat about him being knocked out? It's not like he's cocky or arrogant, he's just a really decent person. I like him a lot and I hope he bounces back.

As a fan, I was always half expecting a loss like this. Mitchell isn't very refined and he takes shots too easily. However, he's a young guy who is very raw and inexperienced. He'll come back, no doubt about it. Will he ever be the next MIke Tyson? No, he won't be. Will he be the next world champion? Well, how many people said Wlad would still be a world champion after he was destroyed in two rounds himself?

Mitchell is the type of fighter boxing needs more of. I'll continue to support him.

 

Another "Superior Athlete" that thinks they can step into the ring and beat a Boxer.........nope!

 

Actually it can. Wilder and Fury are alot more likely, Price's chin may be equally vulnerable (may, we don't know as we haven't seen that as a pro yet which further demonstrates the point) but his pedigree and skill set makes it more difficult to get to than the other two guys.

 

Yeah, must be something in the water that makes those Maryland chins extra glassy.

 

D.C. is not part of Maryland.

 

He deserves some credit for that fight, but not too much - it was an out of shape Chisora, who had yet to fight Helenius, Klitschko and Haye - ie. two prospects going at it.
