Has mitchell got it?

Hope he does it and as u said he has the skills and power but i worry about his chin. Kastidis could bang so no real shame but burns is a light puncher and that concerns me a lot

 

its always been his mentality that's been a worry for me, maybe with age etc, he's improved, he seems to have a more settled private life at present too which is always a help.

boxing talent wise I think he's got it, mentally there's a question mark which he'll hopefully answer come the 30th

 

He got stopped by Burns...

 

Tony Sims has helped lots I think, he makes his fighters train very hard. Seems much more focused these days

 

I hope he wins but hes not world level- I can see Linaries getting the stoppage sadly but hopefully im wrong.

 

I hope he pulls it off, he has the talent, but something seems to be missing.

Lets hope he puts it together, his performance against Maduma, a dangerous fighter, was very good.

 

Not sure about him being humble being a Londoner I've heard plenty of stories about him being up himself when out for the night, giving it the big I am and getting wasted. It takes quite an ego to do that when you know you're going to have to fight world class opponents in the coming weeks.

Although that is all hearsay I guess and he does seem settled now.

 

Hearsay mate .. One of the most down to earth guys you could wish to meet, has time for everyone , even laid a boot camp on for a few of us last summer

 

Nice to hear. It's not only bad things I've heard it has to be said. My mate Tom definitely met him in Nando's at Mile End shortly after the Katsidis loss and said he was a good bloke and they had a brief chat about West Ham.

On the other hand I've had less trustworthy sources say they've seen him put a rolex behind the bar for a tab not long before a fight.

 

Yes mate seems so focused at the moment , realised its last chance saloon , very confident about him becoming World Champion 👊

 

I'd love to see it, his career's been a bit of a disappointment so far and if he doesn't win a world title then full of regrets. With the amount of talent he has it's ridiculous that he's never held a strap.

 

Spot on mate.... Well said 👍

 

It's also been far too long since East London has had a champion. During my dad's generation there were loads, Magri, Stracey, Marsh.

 

Lets hope mitchell and degale both win over the next two weeks i think both are in very winnable fights
