He's overrated because he was close to being the ring's fighter of the year and some of the boxing press gave him more credit than Calzaghe, Mayweather and Manny. Lets be honest - he has won one big fight, and people have gone over the top. As for the Lockett fight, I hope Gary beats him, but could Pavlik have picked a better fight? He's picked someone who will attack, and he will box off the back foot until Lockett gets knackered, and then he'll open up and look good. I like Pavlik, but he hasn't proved himself yet.
