    Too many promising young fighters concerned today with trying to keep their '0'. Sometimes losing is the best thing that can happen to a fighter.

    If you're not being put in with a fighter that can 'maybe' beat you what are you even gonna learn?

    ****ing love Katsidis. Glad he won, although I predicted a Mitchell victory. MK came in with the perfect game plan. What a star.

    Was at the fight tonight and have just watched the fight on TV. Quite simply Mitchell was not ready for World level.

    Like everyone else i am saying this in hindsight, but Mitchell had 1 fight at domestic level and 1 fight at fringe world class.

    The injury obviously caused problems in his development but he should of been fighting for a European title tonight and not for a World title for another year. Having tough fights at domestic and european level would have prepared him better and he would have known what to do when getting caught early.

    Instead he was lost as soon as he got in trouble due to inexperience and fighting soft opponents.

    I don't think anyone can doubt his potential or that he has the ability to win a world title. But he needs to build up to World level not jump the q because he is a big ticket seller and has a good promoter.

    going on from here, I think Mitchell needs to go to the states. Not because Tibbs is not a great trainer, but to get a high level of sparring he will get which will also be a great experience.

    as for the rest of the night.........got beaten up by a group of West Ham fans on the train. some guy asked me who i supported and I just said Spurs not thinking about it. started giving me **** which i just ignored. finally after 5 minutes he was getting on my nerves to much and i told him where to go, he was walking away and all of a sudden a load of his mates showed up and me and my friend got roughed up. nothing to bad but made the night even worse.

    It was a gamble, and this one didn't come off. As a music promoter I know says, "First rule of this game is you have to accept that you won't always come home with your pockets full of fivers."

    Best thing of the whole night was the total ineptitude of the "Cockney Rejects", some things never change

    I would love for this fight to happen just to see Katsidis back in the UK, next time i've got to be there....plus he would embarrass John Murray and stop that particular hype train in its tracks
