WBO Welterweight champ Antonio Margarito, perhaps the most feared man in all of boxing, may make his seventh title defense against former junior welterweight champ Sharmba Mitchell on August 12 at the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas.

If Margarito-Mitchell gets signed it would be a noteworthy development in the world of boxing. Because finally a marquee fighter with respectable name recognition will have stepped up to challenge Margarito.

respect to sharmba if this fight happens, he is at end of his career and could take small fights and make a dignified exit but does this fight do anything to raise margarito's stock if he wins.
This will do nothing for Margarito's stock if he wins. Shamba Mitchell is running on fumes, he has no gas left in the tank. And after taking major beatings by the likes of Kosta and Floyd I doubt if the public want's to see him get in the ring with Margarito. Mitchell is a fallen warrior who should call it quits.
I agree with you gbrandon definately, but theres no one else that really wants to fight Tony though and this guys is somewhat repitable.
