I come to the conclusion that defense generally must be taught to a boxer before their habits crystalize, i.e. the amaturs. I seldom see a boxer improve on their defense in a dramatic fashion when they turn pro.

Re: Seth 'Mayhem' Mitchell
He showed heart, getting hurt is a learning experience in itself, he won't be in new territory if he gets hurt again. I liked his bodywork!
He's exciting. I think another 2 or 3 fights with guys around this level will do him good

Re: Seth 'Mayhem' Mitchell
Marciano was a baseball player before he went to boxing. It simply takes time for the fighters to reach the level that you want them at. It's not like Mitchell didn't do a good job in the ring Saturday night.

Re: Seth 'Mayhem' Mitchell
He's an entertaining fighter that's for sure. Seems like a genuinely nice guy so I wish him all the best. But if I'm being honest here...he doesn't beat any of the top guys in the division. I thought that before the Witherspoon fight. Never understood the hype he got for beating Timur Ibragimov. I guess he deserves some credit for being the first person to stop him but Timur himself never beat anybody of note.
From an American point of view I'd rank Seth somewhere in the 5-10 range. I'd pick Chambers, Arreola, Thompson and Johnson all to beat him. There are a few wildcards like M Scott or T Walker that could spring an upset.

Not that I'm a Mitchell fan but I could also see him potentially winning all thoseOriginally Posted by TigerFan

Walker can't take a glancing blow any more without going down. I see him going out in a highlight reel knock out if they ever fought. And Scott can't punch to save his life. Mitchell would walk right through him

Seth is too hittable at two low a level to take seriously.
