Wonder what ****** spent the whole time moaning about there.

It wasn't ******, it was that old 4by2 in Salitas camp moaning about Prescotts weight...interfering old cunt.

look how small his arms were compared to prescott hes really going to have to get inside and make an early impression i think the first 3 rounds are going to be interesting

Mitchell is going to get beaten up I think, mid-rounds stoppage for prescott, either the ref'll stop it or his corner will pull him out. Prescott looks huge compared. Mitchell likes a war and I reckon he might get dragged into one, can he outbox and outsmart him to overcome the size difference?

I hope Mitchell wins and will be supporting him all the way but Prescott looks a beast at the weight.

You think? I thought he looked very confident, especially the knife across the throat routine

I seem to remember a certain Ricky Hatton doing the same thing and Prescott didn't look at all fazed.

Hatton did that at the PBF weigh in...:scaredas:

Mitchell was wobbled and hit hard by Johannsen and came through it... With Prescott boxing on the front foot I think that if he hits Mitchell on the whiskers he will stay hit...:yep

I just hope that Mitchell can stick to his fight plan and win this contest...:good

Same, not nervous to me but what was the pish with Prescott, the second time he got on scales he was on less than the first time, seemed a lil hurried.

Anyways

The size difference isn't that much and Mitchell is a much classier operator than Prescott.

Yup i reckon Prescott is quite raw when they are on the inside, just a feeling.

Just reminds me so much of the African fighters that used to come over.

I could be wrong but Mitchell to win, regardless.

12-04-2009, 10:50 AM

mitchells up to his neck in this one, big mistake by ****** letting mitchell in with a banger at a new weight, unless mitchells learnt some defence and movement which i doubt he has, his head will rule his heart and prescott will smash him to bits and probly stop him with a body shot in the 3rd.

i hope kevin proves me wrong and wins this but i dont see it at all.

Would like Mitchell to win but I can't see him keeping out of danger for long enough to expose Prescott in return.

billy nelson

12-04-2009, 11:36 AM

he is a big LW but kevin has the skills to beat him in the second half of the fight,everyones judging prescott on 54 seconds,the first round is the most common round to get caught cold

moorser

12-04-2009, 11:42 AM

mitchell on points

prescott got lucky with khan

SteelTownCobra

12-04-2009, 11:44 AM

Prescott hadn't really done anything before he sparked Khan. Since that shock KO what else has he done? Looked very ordinary indeed against mediocre opposition. All Kev has to do is avoid the big shot, I'm pretty sure he's got the skills to figure that one out.

threethirteen

12-04-2009, 11:46 AM

I'm pretty sure he's got the skills to figure that one out.

But has he got the temperament? He likes a tear up, and he's probably not a big enough puncher to dissuade Prescott from exchanging.

Prescott's looked average since the Khan victory, and I think Kevin's got the chin and the movement to keep him going in circles.

Beeston Brawler

Mitchell hasn't done anything though, has he?

Other than beating a faded Carl Johanneson his resume sucks, even worse than John Murray's does.

SteelTownCobra

12-04-2009, 11:51 AM

True but he wins tear ups. He's stopped 9 of his last 10 opponents.

This is what makes this a good fight, anything could happen and at any time. I'm backing Kev but it could easily go either way.

True but now he's stepping up to the plate and about time too.

Bonavena25

12-04-2009, 12:08 PM

to be fair to prescott, the guy who just beat him Miguel Vazquez isnt a nobody like people think, hes actualy a solid 5'10 light welter with decent skills, who only ever lost to tim bradley and saul alvarez (welterweight) both on decision, no disgrace in that

Noticed that as well.

Prescott is not as good as the Khan fight made him look but he's most likely still going to be too good for Kev. He looks to have a ramrod jab as well.

GazOC

12-04-2009, 12:10 PM

I've seen both of Prescotts fights post-Khan and he's hasn't looked the destroyer he did in that fight but he still looked like a decent fighter. Mitchells got it to do IMHO.

TFFP

12-04-2009, 12:18 PM

It wasn't that bad. Prescott is just long and gangly. It's an advantage at a shorter distance, Prescott probably doesn't have the technique to get leverage closer.

I tend to agree with you. Everyone is hyping Prescott as if he is the second coming of Tyson based on the Khan fight. I saw one of his post Khan fights and also thought he looked average.

faisal

12-04-2009, 01:14 PM

the man who last beat prescott had some skills and i'd go as far as to say he was better skilled then mitchell, vasquez had fought at 140 and 147 he'd gone the distance with alvarez twice and also tim bradley those fights must have taught him a thing or 2 mitchell coming up a weight in a devision he didnt even dominate domestically he hadnt faught any fridge world class operators, he didnt even have a decent european test,
if mitchell wins this he'll win in a scrappy fight holding etc he wont hurt prescott mitchell wasnt a big hitter at 130 as his record may suggests,

I've started to watch the film 3 or 4 times, but Travolta just winds me up, so I haven't actually seen the end. I thought it was that one where he turns into an angel...or is that another flick where he plays a dumb ass?

Mitchell has been bum fed, and now he is being thrown to a lion. He gets KTFO by half way.

i hope you are wrong, but thats what am thinking as well

I hope I am wrong and this fight really excites me. I want an amazing display from Mitchell but I do not think he can improve to a level that is capable of beating guys above domestic level. He struggled like fuck against a shot out of sorts Carl Johanneson and has no one else on his record and has never really looked impressive.

Kev wins this for me, he fights inside real good,he has a superb defence that he neglected early career yes he is smaller but khans glass chin flatters prescott, Kev wont hang it out like that neither, Kev on points,tight, but clear.

Doppleganger

12-04-2009, 05:36 PM

couudt belive the size difference.
It's because Prescott is boiling down to make weight. Naturally he should be fighting at least at welterweight given his height.

Gotta go with Prescott simply because this fight will be frequently drawn into a brawl and you have to fancy the bigger puncher in those.

Can't decide who will win this one.

Prescott is ranging and Mitchell is pretty poor at controlling and judging distance.

Mitchell though is fairly good at avoiding left jabs, and Prescott is always overly reliant on that punch.

As for the size difference, it is quite a jump for Kev and I would be suprised and pleased if he pulls this off. Kev gets pulled out by his corner late.
