I remember when he turned pro he was the "talented" one of the brothers.

He was an 18 year old Lightweight then.

Now he's a 24 year old Super Middleweight whose last five opponents - spread over five years - have been a bloke who was 0-1-0, TWO fights against Ally Black, who was 5-0 then 5-1, another against a man with a 4-7-1 record then, after a 17 month break, a four round point win over a man who had won 5 of 27 fights.

He's still young enough to come on but is he any good?

I know he was a good amateur think he had a gold at the 'youth' olympics his Mrs had a bad fall about two years ago and was put in an induced coma for quite a while that's why he had so much time off. Think he will get his weight down each fight now

Has Gary Buckland packed it in again? I think he could take a lot of heart from how Masher Dodd has gone on since his win. Dodd has beaten guys who have won EBU titles since.... I think if Gary refocused and with some luck he could mix it with that Cardle / Dodd type guy and then possibly EBU level.

The weight was killing Gary and I can't see him coming back.

Mitch has had a lot going on the past 12-18 months and his heart still isnt in it and the weight is going to be an issue.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if he just fizzles out after 1 or 2 more fights.

A lot of travellers fall out of love when they turn teenagers and start earning money in surpised Mitchell has stuck it so long

Fights next weekend against a bloke with a 4-37 record.
