By Scott Gilfoid: First let me start off by saying that the decision given to Kevin Mitchell (30-0, 22 KO’s) was one of the most undeserving that I’ve ever seen since I started following boxing many years ago. No way did I see Mitchell winning this fight, not with the running he did against the hard hitting Breidis Prescott (21-2, 18 KO’s). Man, I haven’t seen running like that since I watched David Haye fight Nikolay Valuev. Mitchell was literally running from Prescott for 12 rounds, especially from rounds nine through twelve.
Breidis Prescott
Khan and Mitchell stun the world
By Richie Doyle: As a young gambling boxing fan I find myself gob smacked at what I witnessed Saturday night in Newcastle my bets consisted of two sizable bets one on Breidis Prescott to KO the smaller Kevin Mitchell and the other was on Dmitry Salita to beat an overrated Amir Khan and by god how wrong I was as I have to say I witnessed a night for British boxing to be proud of and never forget.
Khan destroys Salita, Mitchell defeats Prescott – Boxing Results
By Dennis Broadhurst: Amir Khan has destroyed Dmitriy Salita in one round tonight! Khan came out strong and floored Salita with a huge right hand, Salita got up but didn’t recovered and was knocked down twice again in the round before the fight being stopped. I know I predicted Khan to win this one but not so quickly, he put on a masterful display and hopefully has silenced all of the critics for the meantime.
Look for Khan and Mitchell to get brutally knocked out
By Scott Gilfoid: I hate to say this but I think World Boxing Association light welterweight champion Amir Khan and lightweight Kevin Mitchell are both going to be destroyed tomorrow night at the Metro Radio Arena, Newcastle, Tyne and Wear. Khan, shaky chin and all, will be facing unbeaten Dmitriy Salita, while Mitchell was be going up against Khan conqueror Breidis Prescott (21-1, 18 KO’s). The speed will be on the side of the Brits, there’s no question. But the power is on the side of the visiting Prescott and Salita.

Prescott vs. Mitchell being put together – Boxing News
By William Mackay: A bout between lightweight Breidis Prescott and super featherweight contender Kevin Mitchell is reportedly being set up but no date as of yet, according to the latest boxing news.
