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.

Murray - Mitchell now!

Round 1. Mitchell landing a few good shots to body at range. Misses with some left hooks. Burns covers up well. Battle of jabs, Mitchell's looking a little quicker. Great exchange, both land good right hands. Burns stalks, Mitchell blocks combo; Mitchell comes back with left hooks, blocked.

Close round Mitchell, 10-9.

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

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.
