Does the lad want to throw his career away or what? 3 year ban for drink driving, drug raids, possesion of a knife...what next?

Article reads like it's written by a 6 year old - but as far as I can make out, this was some time ago ( Mitchell getting caught that is )

Still, it's a good job he didn't get the NY fight, as knowing Kev's luck lately, he'd probably have mistakenly packed a machete in his hand luggage.

With a criminal record Is he allowed to fight in America now?

Not sure, he hasn't done any jail time so maybe.

But there is no way Kevin could dress up as Big Momma to fool the border control.

As your crime was on the serious scale, I always wondered how you managed to get over to the Wildcard. How was the process, was there any setbacks getting access. And do you know where the line is drawn for refusal to the USA?

BoxingAnalyst, most here know the crime but out of respect for Larry it is up to him to disclose it on boxrec. Common knowledge to most ears.

Joey Barton was on holiday in the States a few weeks before his working visa for the NUFC tour was rejected. I suspect there are lots of variables in each application.

Yeah, but could you risk getting turned away at customs a week or two before the date, that is main question over Kevin at the minute and why he was held back from Rios fight in my opinion. US customs can be hit-and-miss, not worth the risk for Mitchell to get rejected with only weeks to go as it would naus things up. Plus there's Visa questions as well, Larry may not have been classed as working over there.
He'd also struggle to get round the 3 month curfew.

He needs a keep busy fight in this country - why not the same night as the Murray - Rios fight in a dual location Warren double header, with him fighting the winner in March/April next year?
