I think so on that evidence. He struggled a bit there against a guy who's heart wasn't in it. Murray would meet him head on.

I've backed Burns by UD all along, Mitchell is more than capable of winning it though.

Is it wise for Burns to drag Mitchell into a brawl?

Is it just me or could he have let him last 2 more secs? Can't take it away from Burns great performance.

Great performance from burns, thought the stoppage was stupid, if he was gona do that he should have done it on the 2nd knockdown. Mitchell was still throwing back and on his feet, hate stoppages like that. My mate Terry O'Connor again.

However, Burns looked massive in there against Mitchell, just looked a beast, Mitchell looked tiny in comparison, just not a proper lightweight at all.
