    Doesn't look like Mitchell is up to the job if you ask me. Very unimpressive so far, I feel an upset coming on!

    Mad stoppage! That shut me up. Not too sure, that should have been called off.

    HAHA Estradas down, well timed!!

    It's over, I agree Mitchell looked average but he just stopped, didn't look a big shot either.

    What was the ref doing? He waved it off as Estrada was rising, changed his mind and carried on counting all the way to ten, then looked like he might let it go on, then waved it off. More baffling even than the punch that finished it!

    looked fairly inconspicious, but thats what body shots do.
    another quiet nothing performance from mitchell, getting used to it now.

    Mitchell is so open to shots and gets hit so cleanly, he's always in pretty exciting fights.

    Go Mitchell- Well chuffed he's my fave domestic fighter..... It wasn't too bad a performance his opponent was all wrong for him... Nice body shots to turn things in his favour.... well done mate

    Same old from Kev. Has the power and offence, defence leaves A LOT to be desired. He can't spell defence. It never ever crossed his mind. He doesn't even try to move his head or block a punch. Sad thing is he has a chin, so he might take some horrific beatings in his career

    Great to watch though

    yeah too many holes in that defence.

    i like his stamina a lot though.

    great engine he's got.

    mitchell may be one of those that ends up surprising us.

    i wanna see the alex arthur fight a lot tbh. :yep

    Not just on this showing, but no way is Mitchell world class.

    No wonder Warren kept him away from the top Euro guys. Mitchell is still only domestic class and probably needs another twenty fights to be ready for a world title shot. I can not see him getting past the Euro elite.

    Kevin was a ready to move up in class two or three years ago but has now kinda settled into his current level due to being there too long (Warren did the same with Alex imo )

    Tough opponent for Mitchell, but I'm just struggling to see him stepping up another level

    Lacks defence and doesn't have quite enough power to get away with it IMO

    I like Mitchell alot: always in exciting fights, seems like a nice guy.

    But as others have said I cannot see him moving too far beyond his current level. AAA would destroy him.

    Gutsy little ****er, but his defence wll let him down when he steps up a level.
