    British superfeatherweight champion Kevin Mitchell will be heading to the wild card gym in hollywood to begin his assault for the W.B.O World title. Mitchell will be trained by the world renowned Freddy Roach

    Kell Brook needs a trainer like Roach a bit more.

    To anybody who hasn't seen Mitchell, he makes Margarito look elusive in his defence.

    Soon the sport will be renamed 'Roaching'. Roachers will share one corner so the shape of the ring will have to be changed. I propose a prism.

    Mitchell is a local Lad... a good lad...but will get brutalised at any where near top level.

    Hes lucky hes fighting under Warren who can get any of his stable a crack at the WARREN BOXING ORGANISATION belt.

    I haven't actually seen the Estrada fight but his defence is non-existant. His fight with Johannesson on the Haye-Maccarinelli undercard was an absolute belter though. :good

    Yea brook in wild card with roach would be a great move.I think he will be a world champ 4 sure but if they could get roach in while hes still young u never no how far he could go.

    I have and it's a moot point, IMO. His defence is ****ing shite! IMO, one of our most exciting to watch but he needs to tidy that defence up if he's to succeed on the world scene.
