Can't see this being at 02 they never fill the venue! Also Roach will be in States can't see Khan fighting without him.

Should be a good fight Burns is a good boxer whereas Mitchell is a strong co forward boxer 2 contrasting styles I see Burns winning the early rounds and Mitchell coming on strong in the mid rounds and stopping him in the 6 imo

Like gemmell said, obviously there will be other names thrown in to fight on the bill at the 02, I doubt there is one active british fighter who would fill the 02 on there own

This is a great fight. I am a fan of both Mitchell and Burns and can't wait for this one. Proper fight for a proper Title and with the biggest prize on the other side for the winner, it should be a top night.

kev had a call saturday from promoter, board wouldnt sanction wbo against martinez, kev has to box someone in the top ten first, i think burns has matured so will be a good domestic fight
