    No, no, no, no. I'm willing to have a wager on this too.

    This fight is at basis that both fighters make 140 easily, realistically why would brook come down, its a fantasy pick em fight guys...

    I think Brook s the most exciting prospect in Britain right now, I would like to see him with some better opposition soon but I think he could be massive

    KM I don't think will reach the heights Brook will but still a very good fighter and fans fav

    Why talk about about a matchup between these two no point, Brook will campaign at 147 and Km 135/140 let them both get on with their careers at the respective weight classes, if you want to talk about a great domestic matchup how about John Murray v Km? at 135

    How can you call Mitchell just hype now?.....30 fights unbeaten, former British and Commonwealth SuperFeather Champ. First fight at Lightweight he boxes Prescott- The man who beat the current WBA 'World' LightWelter Champ Amir Khan in one min and totally outboxes him. Sorry, but he's obviously more than just a hype machine now.

    Prescott, over rated puncher? What did he have, 16/17 wins by ko out of 19/20 fights? Dont think thats over rated! And he couldn't box?...

    Brook looks an amazing prospect but needs another year of build up fights at around British and possibly European level.

    Mitchell is ready to move into the contender status for world belts but could still do with a few fights against guys of Prescotts level or maybe a European run.


    Both should stay out of 140 though.

    Brook has talent and tools but Mitchell's shown he has the intangiables. At present, that's the safe bet.

    Brook is 147/154, Mitchell is 130/135. Two weight class difference. Brook might be drained.

    Forget about this match up. Let's discuss ones that could really happen soon.
