Mitchell vs Burns 5th december in Newcastle

ricky was ment to fight in belfast was it last week but martin hurt his shoulder so the show was off.to ask if either fighter is going to have a warm up with only 8 weeks to go is simply stupid!

 

It didn't seem as little as that when I asked. Calm yer jets Billy.

 

would of liked to of gone to this, tickets on sale Friday and i wont have the money :-(
Mitchell for me :good

 

sorry mik1000 that read bad mate,rickys got 9 weeks hard training ahead of him for what will be a hard fight.

 

how do you see it going Billy? (with a objective hat on). Was i a bit harsh on RB's prospects?

 

I see this as a bit of a 50/50 fight but Ricky has been more active and in with better opponents of late so I go with Ricky to edge a UD.

 

it will be a tough fight for both men,styles make fights and i think kevins is ideal for ricky,more importantly so does ricky

 

come on ricky think you can take kev .. its yours for taking cant wait for this one

 

I think that Burns can stop KM...:yep

 

no chance! ok mitchell squares up and walks into punches which can get him buzzed if Burns can time his punches, but Mitchell has a very good beard plus Burns doesn't have the pop to back him up let alone stop him inside the distance, No way he should be looking for the stoppage here, he has to be disciplined, stick to a game plan of spoiling on the inside and potshotting and establishing the jab, his best chance of winning is to go to the cards.

 

I feel that shots that will do the damage will be to the body.....:yep

Who said anything about looking for a stoppage...:think

I think that Burns will box his way to a stoppage and not have to look for it.... The pace of this contest is where it will tell... I think that if Burns draws KM into the trenches he will do what Carl Johannsen didn't.....:bbb

 

When did Mitchell last fight ?

When did he last go through a solid 12 rounds ?

That defo makes a difference for me.

I think he will come quick to Burns, try and flush him OR sit and wait and try to box waiting for Burns to get heady and move in, yet if Burns dosent........his impatience will play a factor.

On paper right now Mitchell is the favourite and he knows it, regarding promoter, previous outings etc etc...........i reckon this will get to him.

 

Or if Mitchell draws him into the trenches......as mentioned, over eager regarding lack of fight/ring-time :hey

Good post anyways :good

 

Kevin Mitchell wins either way, Late knockout or Points.
