It's fairly obvious - something like "Super Kev" I think. He once did a question and answer session on here that lasted around 20 pages!
i have seen the name Kevin Mitchell on here once or twice, but yea it was Jigsawman or something that done the Q&A
Whats he gonna do seriously ? He had belief he was the best, and would become a multimillionaire & be the top lightweight... He got beat the **** outta by a limited brawler... he should try and get a fight with John Murray
A limited brawler who just fought the best lightweight in the world and put him on his arse in the process.
a good limited brawler.. :hi: hes a hard ******* dont get me wrong, but if you wanna be the best you should be able to get past them types of fighters... Kevin had high hopes of beating everyone with his undefeated record and becoming a multi-millionaire...
just cos kev had a bad night does not make him a bad fighter/boxer..... i think kev is a very good boxer and he will come back and do well, maybe he can challenge for a world title at some level who knows, khan had a worse defeat and came back a better fighter, so why cant kev too. best of luck kev, be good to see you doing your stuff again.
He's a good boxer, Good technique and combos, but his defence and resistance isn't good enough for the top level. Probably due to a career of not being stepped up gradually. That said, and I loved watching johanneson, but going life and death with him made it obvious Mitchell wasn't world class IMO. Khan had struggles with brit/euro level fighters but he was a lot younger and inexperienced. And he knuckled down, Mitchell didn't.
Katsidis isn't limited - he's a little one dimensional at times, but he can jab, move, has a decent left hook. Lacks a right hand of note, but he can box and slug - it's just slugging is what he does best. Mitchell may be more versatile, but only at a lower level. The issue wasn't training really, it was that Kevin seemed bamboozled when Katsidis didn't come straight at him. And he ended up playing into Michael's hands. Katsidis used his brain to beat Mitchell that night, not just his toughness.
Apparently mitchell wants a rematch he hurt the muscle in his eye during the fight he fell out wiyh his girl friend just before the fight anymore excuse left to mention. He was beat by the better fighter end of mitchell is not world class.
Kevin isn't really that bad in any department. Problem is, he's not very good/excellent in any department either. At the top level he'll always end up getting outboxed by the boxers and outbrawled by the brawlers.
Mitchell looked tiny against Kats, perhaps he'd be better off at Super Featherweight? European level fighter at best. Like Murray, neither will do anything on the world stage.
