    I find Mitchell entertaining, but he has a sort of 'kill or be killed' type of style whilst having an awful defence.

    If Johanneson wouldn't have gassed (or had started fighting from round one instead of four) Kevin would have lost his 0 that very night.

    For me, a guy with decent stamina and a bit of pop would ensure Mitchell is KTFO. Whether Khan would be the man to do that, I am unsure. For me, he is a similar puncher to Hatton (i.e. cumulative power as opposed to one punch ala Witter) - so perhaps a stoppage rather than KO.

    I've a feeling this would be a war with Mitchell's style forcing Khan to fight on the inside which is probably where he's at his most vulnerable but Mitchell would take a lot of shots I feel.

    If it went the distance Khan would take it I think but Mitchell is certainly capable of knocking Khan out as well.

    Would be a great fight!

    Unfortunately, against someone half decent, it's going to be the same sort of 'kill or be killed' style as someone running head-on towards a machine gun post waving a butter knife in a threatening manner and shouting "aaaaaarggghhh".

    mitchell hasnt got particularly impressive skills, more a brawler then a boxer, his power is also overated i honestly feel that if his power was what people proclaim he'd have done what that euro fighter did to carl

    They are both over hyped kids. Once they step up a level they will get smashed up. They are in their little 'Warren protect and comfort me' zone. Khan would be too big for little gun hoe Kevin. The funny thing is I actually rated him (Kevin) earlier on in his career but recently he has looked ****, he is very one dimensional. Khan would KO him. Thtas about Khans level, he cant step up to the big hitters in the 135 pound division. Cats like Pacman, Diaz, Guzman would end the young chaps career.
