Kevin Mitchell (31-0) vs. Michael Katsidis (26-2) - 5/15/2010 Kevin Mitchell (31-0) vs. Michael Katsidis (26-2) Upton Park Stadium, West Ham, England WBO Lightweight belt
Kevin Mitchell was stopped in three brutal rounds by Michael Katsidis to end his hopes of seizing the interim WBO lightweight title at Upton Park. Fighting in front of a 14,000 crowd, the West Ham fan suffered his first defeat in 32 fights when referee Dave Parris stopped the fight. The loss will have done major damage to Mitchell's hopes of meeting British rival Amir Khan in a domestic superfight. http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2010/may/15/kevin-mitchell-stopped-by-michael-kastidis
