    Of course Vlad would destroy Mitchell, probably within 1 or 2 rounds. Brutal knockout. Unconsciousness.

    But at least Mitchell would make enough money to retire for life, assuming the fight takes place now.

    If Mitchell's people wait, and take the fight later -- after Mitchell gets exposed -- then he will make much, much less money for getting KO'd by Vlad.

    The only thing Mitchell will be good for is KOing Welliver so that his fans finally f*ck off :deal Either Klitschko destroys him of course.

    No.

    Wlad would fight him cautiously and take 6 or so rounds to stop him.

    Mitchell vs Vitali would be an entertaining enough fight.

    It was last week. Not so much any longer.

    Mitchell had a chance tonight to show us something new, some kind of improvement.

    He failed miserably.

    I don't think Seth would ever be ready for a Klitschko. A fight with Arreola would be exciting and a great eliminator though.

    Just as credible of a thread (or really lack thereof) as any of HW contender. . .

    He brings more explosiveness than any other HW. . . But he lacks a lot of the nuanced fundamentals that can only come with experience, and repetition. . . This will likely cost him. . . DEARLY. . .

    I think they feed Seth tomatoes until he gets to 30-0 before a klit fight then gets bodied within 5 rds...he almost got ktfo in the first

    Mitchell isn't ready for a Klitschko right now but we already knew that. He probably fights again in June against someone like Grant and if he wins that fight I'd say he's ready to try a top 10-15 guy.

    Mitchell is never going to be confused for someone like Holmes when it comes to pure boxing ability. But he does have some nice tools(power, aggression, explosive, etc) and if he can improve a bit in his trouble areas he can be a threat in a year or two.

    His chin seems to be his biggest concern, I don't know if I'd say he has a glass chin but it sure isn't Oliver McCall part 2 either.

    :lol::rofl:patsch

    Mitchell wouldn't land a meaningful punch on Vitali and would get savagely KOed he doesn't have the Chin to take a prolonged beating like several of Vitali's opponents have. I would not be shocked if Mitchell gets KOed like Solis did from the slapping left hook.

    I think his performance was impressive enough, but keep in mind its Witherspoon he fought.

    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSBUBAM1usI[/ame]

    I would like to see Mitchell in against someone a bit better than Witherspoon as he progresses his way up.

    But so far, he is rather impressive. Not a devastating puncher, but punches hard enough, and has a good aggressive style.

    I like Mitchell and am looking forward to his next fight. :good I am seeing Boystov as more of the *one to watch* at this point, but Mitchell also impressive up to this point.

    I agree, Arreola vs Mitchell would be good, or Stiverne vs Mitchell.
