Pavlik vs Lockett?

Question

So whats the deal with this Lockett guy?

Watched a few clips of him on youtube and it looks like he may make for a decent fight. Whats your take on this?

Answer 1

He's another Welshman, got a loss on his record that he avenged, and Pavlik is by far his biggest test.  I know the guy has over 30 wins and is the number one contender for Pavlik's title, but other than that I know little else about him.  Odds are good Pavlik should win with relative ease, Pavlik's level of competition over the past 6 fights is of a far better quality than Lockett's, so unless Lockett steps up his level of performance, he will most likely end up with another loss.  It's a safe bet Lockett has never faced the likes of Pavlik, it's a serious step up in competition for the Welshman.

Answer 2

locket will win on points......

that little state called wales in the united kingdom...

how embarrassing is this for a super power....

wales is the size of a football.........

only 100,000 welsh people and they kick your butts

ha ha ha ha ha ha

Answer 3

Pavlik is the only guy that can beat Pavlik in that weight class.

Answer 4

This is nothing but a moneymaker for Pavlik. He has fought about 5 straight really tough fights. He needs a chance to relax and hone his skills a bit.

Answer 5

I have seen two of his fights.  He is nowhere near the class of fighter that Pavlik is.  I have not seen the youtube clips, but what I have seen is not impressive.  He won both fights I saw, but it was like watching a club fight.

His skill level is about the same as arturo gatti after the ward fights.

Answer 6

forget lockett

i think pavlik v calzaghe would be the best fight out there and the most entertaining but pavlik would have to step up a weight
