A lot of people here expect Pavlik to put Lockett away inside the first half of the fight and will probably give him a lot of stick if he fails to do so.
But how many of you have actually seen Lockett fight before?
Michael Jennings v Cotto
Ryan Rhodes v Saul Alvarez
That said, Barker isn't a bad fighter and I do think he'll last to the latter parts of the fight. He'll probably be stopped in the last 3 rounds or lose a wide decision.
I know Lockett in person you dumbass, I never expected Lockett to win and thought he'd get KOed, notice why I only bet 5k?
U still bet on Lockett even though u knew he was gonna get whooped?
Shit thats being down for ur boy...
Listen if u see him about tell him he should of been ducking and diving
hehe
Personally, I think Pavlik will wear him down and stop him in the championship rounds, but wouldn't be suprised if he didn't, or even if the fight wen't the other way.
He's a tough kid who can bang, Pavlik may have his work cut out.
But Lockett has never been down before, let alone anywhere near stopped.
Granted, he hasn't faced anyone of Pavlik's quality, but he has faced some big punchers.
To suggest Pavlik will blow him away easily is absurd. He may well do, but Lockett is a tough guy who should be more than capable of taking one of Pavlik's "bombs".
are you not completely contradicting yourself by saying it would have been absurd to suggest he would blow him away easily , but then the next thing you say is he could :dunce:
some of this shit is hilarious looking back at it now
lol@some of the predictions
I could of told y'all for time Lockett is SHITE!
knew Pavlic was gonna knock his ass out..
Lockett took some punishment
shame on those that thought he could last the course
Lockett knocks himself out sparring his useless
:lol1:
I think my prediction was Pavlik KO 4, so i wasn't to far off...
I am glad I don't make crappy predictions when threads get bumped. Of course, If Wlad KOs Haye I am fucked, but oh well..

man its funny coming back to old threads,
I feel bad for all the crow population when an old thread comes to life again. Poor crows, so many forced to eat them! :D
I havent seen Lockett fight other than a little on youtube, but I'd be happy to take your points with a small bet. I'll say Pavlik inside the distance for 5K. All other results and you win i.e. a win for Lockett or a decision to Pavlik. Are you game?

Ive never seen him bur ive heard he isnt that great
He isn't great, but he struggles more with boxers. Against a puncher he stands a better chance.
