Murray - Mitchell

[roberto duran legend]

Mitchell has been on the piss ever since he got his butt kicked by Katsidis ,he said so himself in the press , apparently has blown £100 k , he is all over the place ,was also involved in some drug related shit , arsehole .

How dyou know this about Mitchell? Are you mates with boxers in his gym or anything? I just would like to know if this is hearsay or if you actually are speaking the truth from being in the know cos I quite fancy Murray for this one myself I already have a bet on him

To be quite honest mate, it's pretty much public knowledge among the London clubs. I heard from a fella at the Repton (not Mitchell's old club, he boxed for West Ham), but I trust that person not to spread unkind rumours. But, tbh mate everyone knows. He made no secret of it, at least after the Katsidis fight & I've heard it discussed by at least half a dozen people who definitely would know. It's a shame because he was a nice talent & what a boost it would've been for the guys at West Ham, of whom there's at least a couple I can think of who look like they could make excellent pros.

Cheers fo getting back to me so quickly. Ive heard a lot about the drinking problems, thats being doing the rounds. But I hadnt heard about other drugs (coke) although I guess thats part of the drink/drugs problem. I hadnt heard anything about him getting done over in sparring though. Is that sparring recent in the training camp for this fight or back when he was an alcoholic and in his time off etc

The sparring thing could be hearsay someone told me that Billy Morgan was duffing him up in sparring. Those things get said all the time, it's just more believable given how Mitchell has lived over the past year. It also isn't necessarily a bad thing. I mean I'd heard that Groves was having a tough time prior to the DeGale fight, not just with the likes of Dirrell, but was reportedly not having an easy go of it against Chris Eubank Jr. But given the result & having seen Chris Jr live, I can see why it would have been a benefit.

Not sure about that , but it would not surprise me in the slightest , how can you be at the top of your game when you are on the lash all the time i think your money is well safe mate .

His mum (who he lives with) was busted for dealing coke a few months back. Rumour was he was mixed up in it.

From what I've heard he's back to a strict regime, but I still don't think he's going to have enough to win.

[katfight]

I'm on my way to watch this at the echo any1 else from uk going?

From the sound of things Murray will win as he has lived a more disciplined life.

Oi, what have I told you about posting my questions before I do?

He's a bit special imo. I'll create a thread & post up some vids later. It will make a change to have a thread about a young guy yet to go pro rather than some guy who was a leading Middleweight on the Denver club circuit in 1925
