where does kevin mitchell go from here?

Back to the gym! and to go home and sort his life out.

He said he and the Mrs had loads of problems and he admitted to partying too much in the build up to the fight. I hope he learns his lesson and comes back.

He needs to get his confidence back now, so maybe a couple low key fights then we will see.

I don't think when we look back on it though there will be much shame in that loss, the Kat is probably going to go on to be a solid world champ and will beat people far better than Mitchell IMO.

Not sure why, but I've never thought Mitchell was going to go on to be world champ anyway, he certainly wouldn't beat Khan.

DeGale's undercard.

I think all the stuff about poor training and problems before the fight is just something to say. If he'd had the best training camp in the world it wouldn't have made him any more able to take Katsidis' punches. I think Frank got him to go to lightweight to take advantage of the Precott situation and make Mitchell a vaguely credible sell for a world title bid. I'm guessing he could make 130 again and he'll need to to get anywhere beyond Euro level, can't see him ever doing anything at lightweight. I would guess he won't go much beyond domestic level at any weight, he'll probably end up in a bunch of British title level wars with guys like Murray.

Go down in weight if he can and win some easy matchups and get his confidence back. He is a muppet for throwing away the biggest fight of his career.

Then he'd be another Maccarinelli.
