Mitchell also he won the British Title stopping a man who defeated Burns very wide on points. You and others go on about the Katsides result to compare them so why not the Carl Johannson result?

Come on to eff that was Rickys last fight for his old trainer,more recently Ricky schooled a guy that stopped Kevin in three Ricky has became a two weight world champion with the fullest of repect at present theres no comparison between the two

It was still Ricky in the ring, "more recently Ricky schooled a guy that stopped Kevin in three " ... I think even you would have to agree that (a) Burns didn't box the same Katsides, and (b) The Mitchell which boxed Johannson, Prescott & Murray wasn't the same Mitchell who boxed Katsides. Point I'm trying to make to you Billy is that you can't go by past form on similar/same opponents or sparring to make a guaranteed prediction. It's good to be passionate but your showing your sleeve and emotions way too much. You mention 'no excuses' in earlier posts. I wonder if you'll come out with any should this fight not go to plan for you? "Ricky has became a two weight world champion with the fullest of repect at present theres no comparison between the two" Come on Billy, even you know nowadays its the fighters which make the title not the other way round. Your not talking to the general public on here who don't understand about the politics of the sport. Burns is a two weight 'WBO Champ'. And your deluded if you really think that there is 'no comparison between the two'. If I was Ricky, I'd be concerned your thinking like this and taking Mitchell to lightly and giving him no respect. Anyway, not long now so we shall see. One thing, it will be interesting

that makes 2 of you and one of you had to make up they went to a non existent sparring session where mitchell won.

I 100% saw them spar, and from what I saw Mitchell didn't show anything near what his capable of and it was still 50/50, ask billy joe saunders, he was there !

I'm not a 'nuthugger'. It's just my opinion that Mitchell hits just as hard as Katsidis, and is a better boxer than Burns. Got nothing to do with 'nuthugging'. Mitchell's loss to Katsidis was down to Mitchell, not Katsidis.

If his promoter didn't believe that a focused, fit Mitchell would beat Katsidis, he wouldn't have made the fight. And he certainly wouldn't have made the fight with Burns had Katsidis not been further shopworn from severe beatings off JMM and Guerrero.

Burns has improved dramatically, which makes it a good fight. Full respect to him and his trainer for this, but fancying Mitchell to knock Burns out doesn't make me a 'nuthugger'.

Well your clearly deluded if you think kevin is a better boxer than Ricky. Rickys faster,stronger,fitter and beats Kevin in every dept sorry but your a mile out my man

Des1 wrote:You see, I'm glad most are writing Mitchell off as most was for the Murray fight. Look what happened when nobody gave him a chance. Yes, Murray and Burns are different styles but that wont make a difference as he was written off against Prescott and his style is different to both (just in my opinion Billy, dont take it personal and comeback with abusive comments :) ). And I'll say it again, if your going to use the Katsides fight to compare then also use the Johannson fight. And Billy, I dont see Jimmy or Mark Tibbs on here getting all uptight and emotional over it. I'd say deep down they're more comfortable about this fight than you, wouldn't you? And if Mitchell did happen to lose, I'm sure they wont look back feeling a fool as they haven't been running their mouth off. Let actions speak louder than words, be humble and let it happen. Its a better feeling if it does happen, and its no pressure or shame if it doesn't. In short, stop acting like a 14 year old in a playground.

Oh, thats why your comments are so cocky. Because.."Is the fight on?".... your quote "NO IT ISN'T!!!!!!!NO YET ANYWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" ......The fight isn't officially made yet! Thats why your beating on like you are Do you actually want the fight Billy? Don't think you do, you've never pushed for it and in the past have tried to rubbish it off "burns dosn't need Mitchell", " going for bigger fish" etc. I think when it becomes real, and your in the changing room ready to go out your going to be in deep thought.......

I have the utmost respect for Jimmy Tibbs but Jimmy knows i have the better and more professional man.It will be a great fight when it happens i just beleive Ricky will be too good for Kevin (only my opinion).
Mate i supported Kevin when he fought Murray i like the guy and we talk every time we meet,what happens will happen.

If you look up some posts I put up about Kevin last year before the Murray fight, everyone was saying he didn't have a chance in hell. I think I was the only one that thought he'd beat John. Then what happens, ...Kev stopped him, ...hahaha! Now you're saying that Murray played into Mitchell's hands with his "come forward style" The same aggressive style you all said would be too much for Kevin.
Now it's like Deja-vous all over again!

Kevin will send the sweaty back up the M1 with a black eye. "Team Tibbs"

Eddy wrote:Now now sweet heart. Don't get all upset.
If this fight happens, can't wait to see your reply when Kev bangs him out. Bet we won't see you on here again, you prat!

Oh rest assured Eddy you will when i tell you all again "TOLD YOU SO"

yiddo14 wrote:Got to chuckle at those here saying Nelson is shouting his mouth off etc. Just look at some of the posts above! The Mitchell fan club hardly seem the standard bearers of class here do they?

Plenty here are giving Mitchell a chance if they do fight, Burns, understandably starts as favourite though. Mitchell gets some unwarranted praise at times here. Anyone would think we are talking about Manny Pacquaio the way some go on! Shame because he is a good fighter in his own right. The hype brigade has always seemed to follow him.

No it wasn't, anyway as a trainer/coach you should know you can't go by sparring at who would win the 'contest'. Sparring is not a real fight Billy....

Listen mate how the eff would you know? im telling you it was at the start of our training camp and Ricky was far far better
