Gary Lockett retires
Like Sugar Ray Robinson, Gary has decided to retire in order to appear on Dancing With The Stars. I hope he'll get your vote.
Gary Lockett has retired from boxing after admitting that he has lost his hunger for the fight game, and has no talent.
The 31-year-old Welsh middleweight has a record of 30 wins with 21 knock-outs and just two defeats, but he now feels his future lies away from boxing.
His last fight was the loss to Kelly Pavlik when he failed to claim the world middleweight title and the now ex-figher admits that he found it a lot of hassle getting in shape for that fight.
"It had become a battle for me in the gym," he told Boxing News.
"Although I was in the shape of my life for Pavlik, it wasn't easy getting motivated. I sort of fell out of love with the game. I probably should've given up my McDonalds job before the fight, but oh well.
"I got out with some money. And there have been more talented fighters than me who've earned nothing. I just can't go any further. I'm a bum, I realise that now.
"I've got a life outside boxing. My hot wife comes first. She has great jugs.
"Boxing wasn't my favourite pastime. I don't really mix with people in boxing or go to shows. Infact I had never been to a boxing gym, and yet Frank Warren still managed to get me a WBO title shot!
"I thank my close family for their support and perseverance. Suck my balls boxingscene, stop overhyping Pavlik, he's one-dimensional, slow, and has a glass jaw. Please STFU, bitches."
