    Yeah, I figured about that much. I was just joking because the US dollar is weeeaaak right now. Is Locket really in his 30's? He still looks like a kid.

    After the beating he received in his last fight . . . he should really consider retirement. He won't reach any higher stature while Pavlik and Abraham is in the division. Planning to move up in weight is STUPID.

    . . . maybe he can challenged Sturm and get his belt in Germany.

    He's reached his pinnacle and probably received a nice paycheck, so I'd respect his decision.

    He should engage in the tried and true Euro hypejob method and secure a few paydays against cans at home at 154 or 147. look what its doing for Kessler! yes his career is now **** and is fading fast but he is getting paid well to fight cans over there . He even owns a wipe my ass paper title to go with it. Why did Enzo feed poor lockette to the Wolves?

    He'll probably get over it maybe he feels like he was used by Papa Calzhaghe,almost like he was thrown in there to see how good Pavlik is and when he got destroyed in 3 rounds,Papa Calzhaghe almost has no use for him no more.

    Lockett was considering retirement before the Pavlik fight. It's clear he doesn't have much of a passion for boxing.

    Well, to be fair to the guy, these guys live for the title shot. He was getting discouraged waiting. Pavlik went through the same thing, wondering if he would get his shot. Lockett got his shot and knows he will never be world class. After all, he himself said Pavlik is nothing special. Makes him an F- fighter. And his trainer probably telling him that Pavlik is a class below Ole Joe....:lol:
