Why has Kevin Mitchel been out of the ring so long?

:drink

 

He got in trouble with the police, who issued him with a curfew a few months back

 

Also, he was set to return against Steven Ormand next month. But the Irishman pulled out of the fight. With the opponent still TBA, it looks likely the bill will be cancelled sooner rather than later

 

Was it growing weed or driving round with a knife in his car?

 

Got caught drink/driving twice since the Murray fight, and also caught with a knife in his car.

Mans a tool with no commitment IMO

 

The knife incident. Although it was his 'friends' knife, not his

 

That must be similar to the time a lad I knew was caught walking out of a pub with the charity box inside his coat. When he was caught he claimed a bloke had just given it to him and said he'd back in a minute

 

because he's a ****ing dickhead who keeps getting in trouble with the police.
Kevin.. Grow up son.

 

Drink driving twice since the Murray fight? I missed the second time. I like him in the ring - but he's surely missing his chance, now. His promoter will lose patience if he isn't showing commitment, this time terminally, surely? He'll be 30 before he knows it, then at his weight class and with his lifestyle it's a rapid downhill slide. Trouble is, if he doesn't sort himself out soon he won't be starting the slide from the top of the hill.

 

I dont think he will be at the top of the hill anyway, give him a bit of cash and he goes bananas, he must b thinking spend it whilst he's got it incase FWP tries to take some back to fund Boxnation.

 

It was a fishing knife wasnt it! ;-)

 

It seems like Kev is trying to throw his career away, terrible shame as he is a gifted and still youngish.

 

Had his boxing license revoked got it back a few weeks back.. been in the gym since before xmas and believe me he is raring to go...
