    How do you see this one going?

    I think Adamek is by far the better boxer and has the skills to outbox Mitchell for most of the fight, but I'm unsure he has the power to hurt Seth or keep him off him. I also think Seth is more than capable of hurting Tomasz.

    I'm going to have to go with Mitchell late KO I think.

    You?

    Seth Mitchell is showing us the metal we expect to see in a fresh heavyweight on the rise.... He is the star of the newbie kids on the block looking to rumble...

    Chazz Spoon was game, but he's not what his near great uncle Tim was in the 1980s...

    As for David Price? Nobody knows of him and he gets no publicity either...

    the longest Mitchell's ever gone is 8 rounds against Zack Page, he looked gassed out in the 2nd vs a game, but limited Witherspoon

    Adamek's been in ring wars ( Briggs twice, Cunningham) and certainly has better conditioning, add to that his speed, ring intelligenence and experiece, he'd easily outpoint Mitchell at this stage of his career

    I agree with you to an extent. If the fight goes past 7-8 rounds then Adamek should take it. But Tomasz isn't the best defensive fighter. Seth WILL land. You think Adamek can take his power?

    I think Adamek would have enough savvy to be able to worm his way past the 6th round, then begin to whisk away the points against a gassing and slower Mitchell.

    Mitchell is seasoning up real fast here... Another 2 or 3 good test fights for Seth, and he will be ready as ever for a guy like Tom Adamek...

    Besides, who knows what Adamek will be like after he comes back from his TKO loss to V.K.? Adamek took a wicked pounding by V.K. last September....

    Mitchell KO's Adamek whilst behind on points, Tomasz has neither the chin nor the footwork to stay out of trouble for the full 12 rounds.

    That's the way I'm thinking.

    It'd be a great fight though.

    Adamek is a type of fighter who goes inside, throws 2-3 punches and jumps out of range, bearing in mind that Mitchell's speed isn't great he'd have a job trying to catch Adamek clean

    even if Adamek gets caught by Mitchell's best shot, he has the experience not to fight his way out of trouble, but to hold on and weather out the storm

    I was thinking I'd love to see this fight too. I think it would be good while it lasted. But Adamek at this point is too well school and too smart for Mitchell. Mitchell is very very raw. But it was a good fight last night so I'm not going to use this as an opportunity to say everything that is wrong with the guy. If they are smart they'll match him with a least 30 or so opponents before they move him to Adamek's level. In other words a year from now. Also the heck with the Klitchkkos cause he aint winning that contest, better off to match him against whomever has Potvietkin's title when he gets to that level.

    We heard this one before against Bell and Arreola.

    Adamek is savvy enough to not get caught up in dumb exchanges and Seth needs a bit more experience.

    Mitchell was too easy to hit and was hurt bad by Witherspoon

    Witherspoon got reckless, if he just boxed rather than mix it up after Mitchell recovered we may have seen Spoon hang on

    that said Mitchell has a hard jab nice body work a nice lead right and a left hook, left hooks are not easy to teach a guy who starts late

    i also loved the feint he did vs Timur

    I expect Adamek to be able to stop Mitchell
