Kevin Mitchell: Me and Murray Could Be Hagler-Hearns - Boxing News

Mitchell left something in the ring in his last loss with Kats. Murray's bombs will blow Mitchell away in 3 rounds. If he stands in the middle like he says he will, its a short night on Sky.

He had his chance to do that against Katsidis

[brocktonblockbust]

that's correct.

I say Mitchell has more chance of winning if he tries to box, if he is planning on steaming in and making a war of it he hasn't boxed for a while and he has had some problems to deal with. Mitchell could be damaged goods (not just physically because of Kats but Mentally too) I have my doubts as to how seriously he is taking his career.

If both turn up in peak condition and both wanting it badly i say it's 50/50.

I'll save my prediction for now

Good assessment..

I'm looking forward to it. I'll be pulling for Murray, always liked watching him fight and he's usually entertaining. I think the Katsidis loss may have affected Mitchell quite badly, he was rumoured to be considering retirement not to long ago and doesn't seem to be taking his career too seriously. I think Murray wins but if Mitchell turns up properly prepared and uses his skills to box Murray it should be a very interesting fight

Hope Murray smokes him. Think he probably will do aswell. Late stoppage.

[JazMerkin]

Does Mitchell realize that he must be Hearns in that example

If he could stay away from the charlie, I'd fancy Mitchell to outbox Murray to a clear but close decision. But he won't. Murray by late TKO. Which is a shame because I think Mitchell is the only one of the two who has the skills to compete at world level.

So Murray seems to be the clear favorite according to most of you.. But why.. Is it because you guys believe the Katsidis loss took alot out of Mitchell physically or mentally?? Or is it because you guys think Murray is much better?

Should be a good fight, but Hagler-Hearns good? I doubt it.

Well I wouldnt know any slang terms since I never did drugs but many coke feen fighters have kicked ass in the ring. Drugs may catch up faster to older fighters but Mitchell is still a fresh thundercat and it might not be that much of an issue for him..

You don't have to do coke to know the terms? Didn't they have names for it in the Wah Ching warz?

Mitchell ain't Pernell Whitaker. Coke is not a good part of the training regime. Mitchell is not so good that he can fight without being completely focused, I saw that up close in the Katsidis fight.

Mainly because Mitchell nearly got stopped by Johanneson, and then was stopped by Katsidis. Murray is probably a little bit more natural at the weight, and he's still unbeaten. Mitchell has also had a lot of bad stuff going on in his private life. Few too many nights out, thinking he's Ricky Hatton. Murray is the wrong guy to fight if your head isn't right and your heart isn't in it.
