yup, and we have seen Pavlik leave himself open before so that 1 punch ending is not out of the question. Undoubtebly Pavlik will make sure his defense is improved this go around. Lockett is traing by enzo calzaghe too so you can't totally sleep on him
Hmmmm well he's been touted on Sky Sports for years and so Ive seen at least half of his televised fights.....he goes out looking for the KO early usually
He's a solid fighter....no great speed but he's been with Team Calzaghe for a while now so he'll be faster than before.......His defense is solid and hasn't been stopped but this will be a HUGE step up for him....like I said...his only chance is a KO
No officially but verbally it's as good as on.......Lockett can thank Duddy for this shot at the title!
i'm just gonna take a wild guess and say pavlik isnt making as much on this fight as he would if he fought winky
Yeah true but Pav legally has to defend his titles to mandatories, and also can't be expected to have superfights every 6 months!
makes sense. arum has stated that he wants pavlik fighting atleast 3 times a year for some time so he is comfortable at 160. too much time in between fights could compromise his conditioning at such a weight
espn.com and boxrec bth have the fight listed as official. It was only a matter of time anyway because Lockett is a mandatory
Lockett will fight on the undercard of the Gavin Rees v Andreas Kotelnik fight in 10 days time still undecided who he`ll fight. He`s a rite moody b`stard so i hope he can back it up for his sakes. Promoted by Warren and at a prime ole age of 31 you would of thought he would be more known around the globe. He just havent been promoted right in my eyes. He aint a bad fighter at all. This could well be last chance saloon!
