Looks like Mitchell cant make 125 any more and his fight with Ricky Burns on the Khan bill is off, Warren is trying to get him a title eliminator against Prescott.

I dont rate Prescott that highly but Mitchell I feel has a style to suit Presscott and might well get ktfo, would be a great fight though.

The fight I would love to see is Murray/Mitchell what a tear up that would be.

Kevin Mitchell could be in line for a world title shot - if he beats Amir Khan conqueror Breidis Prescott.

Promoter Frank Warren says he has matched the pair in a world title eliminator, although no more details of the fight are available.

Mitchell is currently riding high at super-featherweight with the WBO, and has long targeted a fight for that belt.

The British champion has suffered a number of injuries since winning his title 18 months ago, and has given up his Commonwealth belt.

But he is now fully fit and looking to build on a series of impressive KO victories.

The 25-year-old, who last boxed when he halted Rudy Encarnacion at the MEN Arena in July, has a 29-0 record with 22 stoppages.

Prescott sprang to fame when he handed Khan his first defeat in September of last year, a spectacular first round KO in Manchester.

The Colombian, 26, has boxed twice since, beating Humberto Toledo before losing a split decision to Miguel Vazquez in July and now stands at 21-1 (18 )

He is scheduled to fight for the WBO Intercontinental title at light-welterweight in Russia, although is more used to campaigning at lightweight.
