Seth Mitchell vs. Johnathan Banks

[beenKOed]

Unfortunately it appears Mitchell has a glass jaw....and temple.

Good for Banks though, and despite Merchant trying to draw tears out of him in the post fight interview like he did to Katsidis a couple years back, Banks held it together and was very well spoken.

Both guys were classy after the fight.

Neither had a pray against either Klit before the fight, nor do they after the fight, but wish em the best.

It remains to be seen about his chin but it 's not looking good for Mitchell. That's what makes the heavyweights so much fun to watch. When they start swinging anything can happen. I hope Mitchell stays with it and has a good career, needs to work on defense some.
Merchant is the most annoying person in boxing, in my opinion. When he starts interviewing fighters, I head out of the room.
Good for Banks and I agree that he should stay away from fighting either Klitschko.

I don't think Banks will fight Vitali or Wladimir and it's probably a wise move.

If I'm Seth Mitchell I assess my career and think long and hard about continuing in boxing because if your heart isn't 100% into it then you will end up getting hurt. I think Julius Long would be a nice comeback opponent.


Jonathan Banks is a good fighter, he's got a chance to avenge his defeat to Adamek and I think that should be the A#1 fight he tries to make. At cruiserweight Adamek had the advantages but I think at heavyweight it could be a different story. Other interesting fights could be Boytsov, Cunningham, Dimitrenko, Chagaev, Povetkin. As the highest ranked American Heavyweight next to Arreola he can do whatever he wants.
