In his match against Eubanks, Kruger showed that he is in good form now. Therefore, Mitchell should definitely not be underestimated. Duckworth, however, is on an entirely different level. At the very least, James is much more stable than Eubanks.
Duckworth rarely wins by a big score, so we think we should expect a long fight in this pairing. The more so that Krueger is in good form at the moment, as he did in the first round game against Eubanks.
