    I can't say I like Lockett's chances...I think alot of you grossly underestimate Pavlik...I have this sneaky suspicion that his win over Miranda might actually appreciate with time for one thing...

    I will be watching and rooting for my fellow Brit though I do like Pavlik.

    "Most" is not enough. Lockett can definitely knock Pavlik into next year, provided he has a whole country behind his punches.

    I was hoping to get better than 9/1 on him. At those odds I probably won't be financially backing him, but I'm willing to send good thoughts.

    I believe he is getting £150K - 5 times his best purse. He said his best purse was £30K. That is indeed a Kings ransom and thy Welsh people should rejoice.

    Should lockett win then he will feast at the Kings table. A rematch should net hin £1m plus. Go forth Lockett and launch thy rockets. To battle we go!!!!

    Lockett is a good fighter but he is too small and easy to hit for Pavlik.

    I think his face will be a bit of a mess after 6 or 7 rounds, he puffs up quite severely.

    £150K??? That makes him the second richest person in the whole of wales - behind prince charles.

    to put things into perspective he technically has less chance than rees had against kotelnick and skelton had against chag.

    so he'll probably win :)

    His chances are similer to Mark Prince Vs Michelzewski... though stylistically there is no similarity.

    His lad got stabbed a couple of years back - poor kid.... think he was going to come back as a cruiser at one stage.... His fight with Micheal Gale was simply mesmerising. Punched like a mule but was extremely raw did well to get to fringes of world class. :good
