Welcome to the forum mate, just a heads up for you as you are new. We don't post the result of the fight as it could spoil the result for somebody else. Just do your best to not reveal the result as the main title. By all means talk about it in the post.Quote:

Mitchell-Linares would be an epic fight and best of luck to him.
If Finito was here he would have had an orgasm.
Yes Kev is wonderful Kev is great I told you so,! he must be on ESB forum I bet.;DQuote:

Still can't believe Burns chinned him out. Beat him, yeah. But chinned out....
Hearn said if he had Mitchell 5 years earlier he would have easily been a world champion by now.
The thing is, we never denied his ability, that has been obvious since day one. It's his application, which even he admits has been sporadic. If he fought like that, in that kind of condition, physically and mentally against Katsidis and Burns he would have steamrollered them both. Good luck to the bloke.Quote:

Mind you, I thought Estrada was genuinely awful, one paced, plodding, no discernible game plan and the slowest hands I've seen in a good fighter for ages. I like Kevin Mitchell, but that was inspired matchmaking for him!!
