Fights on Saturday - Sept. 22nd - Burns vs. Mitchell

[Rantcatrat]

This is an exciting British lightweight world title match. It should be a good one. I'm pulling for Mitchell, but could see Burns sneaking out with a decision.

[Master]

I will be supporting Kevin Mitchell to win as I have always thought he was a quality boxer and puncher. This will be a good quality fight and probably the best domestic fight this year. Ricky Burns is not a big puncher but throws a lot of punches and I hope Kevin catches him and stops him.

Really looking forward to this. Not overly keen on Mitchell as a character, but I like him as a fighter. If he's sorted himself out properly, which he seems to have done under the Tibbs Team then I think Mitchell takes it, maybe by late stoppage or close UD.

Anyone have any secrets regarding good streams for this or any future. Been struggling a little of late with my regular place cutting out quite a bit during the fight. PM me if you can help....

Remember Burn's past his big test,! were Mitchell crashed and burned you do seem to write Burns off
in this fight, Mitchell has it all to prove in my eye's.
So with them facts, I go for Burns 12 rounds on points, it's a Sky-plus night Saturday I can't wait.

[Master]

Mitchell proved himself against an undefeated Murray and Johannson in my eyes.

I second that one Drop, you do spend a fair old amount of time in those "Lets Get It On" Threads. The special ones. You know the ones.

I think Mitchell has all the questions to answer. Burns has fought and won at the much higher level, hes proved he is genuine world class. Right now Mitchell isnt.

Both boxers styls will mix very well for this fight but im expecting Burns to outwork Mitchell over 12 winning an 8-4 type of fight although i think the scoring will be very close.

ps: im from Burns home city (Glasgow) so of course im gonna pick our world champion to win although i do think he will win (reasons above). Im also covering the whole bill and will be collecting scores etc from press and fans from saddo and otehr forums

Will need to record the Sky bill from belfast, looking forward to Frampton vs Molitor , i think its a 50-50 ifght

For the fans of both boxers, its about which fighter wants it more Burns has had some loses, but has
shown no ill effect , the fact is he's come back a better fighter to my mind.!
Mitchell on the other hand, may have beat Murray but is he a fighter with a stable mindset, did that
defeat damage him mentally. I don't really know but I have feeling it did, for this fight I go for Burns
its in his back yard and he's the champ.

[Fenster]

Thought there would more hype about this fight.

The Mitchell camp are claiming he's trained 100% properly for this. Therefore, as I believe he's the more talented, I think he'll pull off the upset. I think he has the power to bust Burns up too.

Mitchell TKO 10

I'm not too familiar with Palacios, but of course I'll be rooting for him.

I'm not too familiar with Palacios, but of course I'll be rooting for him.

That fight starts about same time as Burns vs Mitchell @3:00 PM ET here in the States or 8:00 PM in Poland. I take it Francisco Palacios is PR?

At Wroclaw, Poland: Krzysztof Wlodarczyk vs. Francisco Palacios, rematch, 12 rounds, for Wlodarczyk's WBC cruiserweight title.
