Kevin Mitchell Stepping up to Lightweight


Mitchell fought Amir Khan's conquerer Breidis Prescott, on the Khan vs Salita undercard on 5 December 2009 in Newcastle, winning by unanimous decision and producing a performance that many didn't believe him capable of. Kevin fought at Wembley Arena just two months later, impressively knocking out Ignacio Mendoza in two rounds appearing to be a tune up fight.

This ultimately proved to be the case as promoter Frank Warren revealed that he would challenge Australian interim WBO Lightweight World Champion Michael Katsidis at Upton Park on 15 May 2010. Full time WBO champion Juan Manuel Marquez is expected to vacate, promoting this fight to a full world title bout. The fight will be billed as 'Hammer Time', due to Mitchell's West Ham roots.
