HBO Tripleheader: Pavlik-Lockett, De Leon-Lopez, Lee-Rubio

[CutMeMick]

Sounds good and all but the fact that this is just "speculation" makes me just kinda shrug my shoulders and say "ok"....

Once I hear the fights are signed, venue and date set...
Then I'll be all smiles....

In the event...
Pavlik TKO
PDL TKO
Lee UD (Good step up in class for Lee)

Yeah I am not sold on this Lockett fellow. He has a good record, but against unknown opposiition. Who knows he might give Pavlik a decent go. Would have much rather Pavlik face Winky though. I want to see if Pavlik can handle an experienced lefty.

Rubio is a good match for Lee. I have not seen much of rubio either, but in the one fight I did see him in he seems to be a tough one. He is coming off a TKO win over Zertuche also, which means he deserves a good TV fight.

De-Leon vs Lopez really has my attention. I cannot wait for that one!!

Wow, you actually think Lockett will get up!! How charitable of you.


On a serious note, not every single fight Pavlik has needs to be against an established top 20 p4p'er, might as well get a willing mandatory out of the way. He'll beat Lockett comfortably, but apart from the top 5/6 fighters around M/SM all fights will be comfortable for Pavlik if he takes them seriously.

Sounds like a good card, should get it over here if Lockett is fighting as well so all good.

...isn't Abraham supposed to be on that card too

Never heard of Lopez before, is he any good? or still too green, another Bautista waiting to happen?

Well Bomp, Juanma is a good southpaw hard hitter like D`Leon with a faster combination , very quietly guy like Cotto , has a good defensive and a boxer that going fight his first Title with a record of 21- 0 - 19 KO , i guarantie you that he is good and going demostrate an competitive fight with D`Leon , i think he will have a chance........

[Bomp]

Cheers for the info Macho, sounds an entertaining fighter. Look forward to seeing his fights.

Not sure really how big of a step up it is for Lee. Its a step up but not a reckless one.

Can't say much about Pavlik/Lockett, just don't know anything about the guy.

I like Lopez/Ponce. Just because Bautista wasn't ready doesn't mean Lopez can't win. Bautista would probably never be ready. If Lopez is the goods he could handle Ponce. Could be wishful thinking considering how much I can't stand watching Ponce fight.

Pavlik TKO
Lee TKO
Lopez TKO

Juanma has the boxing skill and the power to take out Ponce. Ponce has no skill!! All he has is punching power. I see an exposure coming!!

Pavlik inside of 5 rounds. Lockett has never faced a world class middle weight before let alone the biggest, best, hardest hitting middle weight in the world with a granite chin. I also think Lee will knock out Rubio and this is why.

I also feel that Ponce De Loen is too open and clumsy. He will get knocked out too.
