It's basically a short article on Pavlik and the upcoming Lockett fight...not as good as the Mayweather piece that I pointed out recently:

Nevertheless, this is a good trend. 2nd boxing piece I've seen on nytimes.com in the last week. I've read this paper online most days for many years, and don't recall ever seeing *any* boxing stories until this month.

but first there is Lockett, who has a 30-1 record with 21 knockouts but is four inches shorter than Pavlik. Even though Lockett is the No. 1 contender in the division, the British press is calling this fight his “Rocky moment” because he is a relative unknown
Hahahahhah.
:ugh:

Pavlik is very media friendly. A white family man from a working class background. sad that it takes that kind of shit to get boxing some shine. fucking white peoples.
not to mention they hear he is beating up black people and they are instantly hooked! :D
