    Its almost over. Mitchell was on the verge of knocking Torres down in the 2nd. A complete miss match.

    Round 3

    More of the same, Mitchell by far the quicker, sharper operater.

    Torres stopped in the 3rd.

    Devastating power by Mitchell as usual.

    Mitchell picked his punches well in that round. Torres in trouble on the canvas. Was completely outclassed, too slow.

    I'm not sure Torres looked fit enough to be in there in the first place. Unfortunate that 2 opponents pulled out, but that was a pointless exercise.

    Johanneson is a disgrace. It is his fault for chickening out, that has meant this has happened. No fighter should ever take a fight, and then chicken out.

    The south american was about the best you could expect at such short notice.

    The poor guy was a former flyweight.Felt a bit sorry for him when he slumped on the ropes at the end.Mitchell done what was asked of him.Iv always thought he was one to watch.Hopefully he can step it up from now and get Johannsen on the under card at the O2.

    i can just imagine if amir fights a bum like that next and all the mayhem it was cause on this site and all the abuse he would get.

    wouldnt it have been better if mitchell had not even thought this guy as this was a mismatch if there ever was one

    Well not really, because Mitchell was supposed to be fighting for the British title, it's not his fault Johanneson is a chicken

    They had to get someone in, people turned up to see Mitchell
