Kevin Mitchell (39-4, 29KOs) will challenge Finland's Edis Tatli (26-1, 9KOs) for his EBU European lightweight title on March 19th in Helsinki (venue TBC) in a fight that could be make or break for him, after admitting he considered retiring after his last defeat.

Mitchell, 31, has lost his last two fights, one for the WBC world title against Jorge Linares in May via 10th round stoppage and last time out in December he was halted in the 5th for the interim WBA world title by holder Ismael Barroso, both gruelling contests and many thought we may have seen the last of him. But after deciding to continue his career, this is a great chance for him to get back in title action and prove he can still be a force to be reckoned with on the world scene.
