All over Murray here @-200. Mitchell is just 2 months "off the wagon" and it appears his life distractions might be his undoing. Sure, maybe one thing has nothing to do with the other, but since many fighters have said boxing is at least 50% mental, Mitchell has his work cut out for him. Going to parlay this with Khan also.
Boxing; 7/16/2011; Murray-Mitchell
- Thread starter fastfrank
- Start date
I have the same bet at -175.
I do believe Mitchell is the more skilled, much faster boxer by far BUT- he was battered by Katz in 3 rounds in his last fight, he has been out of the ring for over a year and was apparently on a drinking binge that would put Ricky Hatton to shame.
He blamed his loss to Katz on personal problems. That was the biggest fight of his life and he didn't train properly?? :facepalm:
Where is Mitchell's mindset at for this fight??
He and his mother are up on charges and due to go to court in a couple of months for operating a drugs ring.
He pushed this fight back a week due to being ill and bed-ridden with a virus.
It is also alleged that he ballooned up in weight during the off time and struggled to come back down again.
He is now fighting Murray, who is naturally bigger and a pressure fighter.
Mitchell beat Carl Johanneson, who is also a pressure fighter but it was a life and death struggle for him and he was hurt a lot in that fight.
Murray is bigger and better than Johanneson.
Mitchell is the better boxer, Murray has the better mindset.
Good luck to us Frank :toast: :toast:
