Come on then guys, time put it on the line. In view of the expected one-sided nature of this fight can we have a round prediction rather than just "Pavlik by KO"???? Pavlik KO 5 for me.
Pavlik TKO 10. I expect Lockett to put up a valiant but ultimately insufficient effort. The ref will save him.
His chin may hold up, but his face won't. Gary lockett has to go for it in this one, he should use up all his energy in the first four rounds going for a KO, because after that his face will be a messy pulp and it will be stopped. Pavlik KO 4 (or corner retirement at end of round).
Pav W12 lockett will be smart enough to stay out of trouble if the jobs too big for him. People too easily forget his amateur credentials. He can punch - but he also can look after himself. Good luck to him though...
Brave effort, keeps on swinging, maybe even shocks Pavlik with a hit or two. But ultimately gets torn up and mercy stopped around the 8th, I think.
