i think he has fought nobody and aint ready for it a few better ones and he will be ready

Depends on what you think of the status of the IBF intercontinental belt. Personally, I think it's pretty worthless.

What is IBF Inter-Continental class?

To be honest, it don't mean much. So yes he's ready for that title, it could be against anyone as long as theres money to pay for it

i think he has got the power to knock a bum he wont have the srentgh to knock out gomez or arthur or limond

It depends on highly you rate this Title and who the opponent is really.

Yeah seeing as Kev is likely to face some Joe Schmo for this title it doesn't mean a hell of a lot.

Mitchell is #133 at Boxrec.

A mean contender for IBF Int. title ranks #78.

Computerank - impressive research.

Unfortunately, your work is undermined by one thing. Almost every board is a load of rubbish and their rankings worthless.

Well according to the WBO Kevin Mitchell is world-class They have him in the November rankings at #12, one place below Manuel Medina. Hopefully we will see Mitchell Vs Barrios next year then :P .

Also Ryan Rhodes at #14 Super-Middleweight which was a bit surprising or maybe not.

What about Michael Jennings #1

It really makes you wonder how much thought goes into these rankings...
Very little, would be my guess.

Gavin Rees was also number one once upon a time.

And Freeman Barr. Oooh. Nice.

It's enough to make you laugh isn't it, if it wasn't so pathetically true

These bogus rankings are downright DANGEROUS. They've blighted the sub-126 weight divisions for years.

on another site there is a discussion about Kevin fighing RYAN Barratt
???????????????????????????
News to me....any info?!?!?!

IBF Intercontinental class can't really be commented on because it's just another rubbish title used to try to fool fans into thinking an up and coming fighter is some sort of a champion. I would rate British level as being much better than it.

Agreed. And the British title has so much more - history, tradition, honour, etc.

Honestly, as I've said before, you can ask almost any British boxer what they would like out of their careers (titles wise). After a genuine world belt, the second choice is invariably the British title - above European and Commonwealth.

kevin mitchell v ryan barrat is of according to mr barret him self,saying mitchell is not ready having changed trainers again.barret has also changed trainers and is ready to fight mitchell and is confident in beating him.

Hohoho

Yes, asking if someone is 'intercontinental class' is a bit futile, as it appears just about anyone can be an intercontinental champ or challenge for it.

What the fornicate is the difference between 'world' and 'international' in any case.

It's an utterly meaningless and irrelevant belt which I am sure was merely designed to extract more sanctioning fees.
