    Absolutely no way Kevin stops Anthony in 5, Kevin has a good left Hook but very predictable, Anthony could be a little too smart for him but IMO it would be a very good fight has both have been stopped at there respective levels

    I never agree with your perception for fighter. Mitchell is a wasted talent, who was never better then burns. because burns was bigger tougher and fitter, Skillwise they are the same. I do believe mitchell finishes crolla as he finished murray. a battering. If u rate burns you have to rate mitchell as one of his best wins.

    Good post's, Billy. It IS laughable when people say Ricky was no much better than Mitchell when he smashed him from one end of the ring to the other.
    IMO Mitchell's sparring mate Nicky Cook was better than him (he's certainly achieved more) and look how easily Rocky Martinez dismantled him. Ricky beat Martinez, Cook and Mitchell with plenty to spare. Different kettle of fish.
    Mitchell gets the "London boxer" treatment and I always remember when he beat an African for the Commonwealth title the media down there were making him out to be a World beater. You'd have thought he won the World title when he beat Prescott, but Katsidis soon brought him down to earth. . .Oh and Ricky beat Katsidis too.
    I never watched Ringside the other night, but I heard Mitchell said he could have fought Khan. I'm not having a dig at Mitchell, but Khan would have blew him away in the 1st round then and now.

    Close fight, all depends on what crolla is like when he returns and also what mitchell turns up? If both are in top form it'll be a fight of the year contender with both getting put on there **** at some point, maybe crolla gets his hand raised at the end but only just.

    Kevin Mitchell is utter ****e!

    He's had two massive opportunities and fell flat on his face both times.... "Oh but a fit focused Kev Mitchell...........Blah de ****ing blah"


    The love for Mitchell, a fighter whos squandered the talent he did have, has talked drivel and failed to promise and has been in the trouble he has with the law is unbelievable for me, especially given the amount of absue Ricky Burns used to get.

    MItchell will struggle next week as he did at Wembley because HE ISN'T THAT GOOD!

    Crolla would school the life out Mitchell to much footwork and good head movement , Crollas the most improved in this country imo
