    I made a post about him before adn i still think he can beat Amir Khan. He is fast, powerful and has some sick combination skills. I hope their fight comes soon because it will be a great test for two amazing amateur fighters. Kevin Mitchell has never lost a fight apparently and has never been down in his career. I think he beats Khan.

    I doubt he would beat Khan, but it would be nice to see two similarly protected undefeated Brits go at it

    Mitchell's strength is his offensive work, he has nice variety. But is it really better than Khan? Khan has the stronger jab by far, and throws the better straighter punches

    Neither great defensively, which should make for a good fight, but I've seen more improvement in Khan's defence. His guard is much tighter, and he keeps his hands up more in his latest fights, whereas Mitchell was tagged at will by Johanneson

    Also, Khan has greater smarts. He sticks to his gameplan and doesn't try to be a hero in there. Mitchell is very immature, and goes to war when he only needs to use his skills.

    hes a good fighter but he isnt going past european level hes unbeaten in 25 fights because he hasnt mixed in with any one who can be considered a legit contender even at euro-level if he was really all that he wouldnt be fighting an eagerly ready and waiting TBA his opponent would have already been annouced weeks ago.His defence is no existant he's more of a slugger/brawler then a boxer
