Pavlik is predictable - Lockett

[southakron314]

Predictable. Predict a knock out.

[Majesty]

Gary Lockett says he can exploit Kelly Pavlik's limited armoury when he challenges for the American's WBC and WBO middleweight titles in the USA.

"Pavlik's brilliant at what he does," said Cwmbran's Lockett, a huge underdog for the 7 June bout in Atlantic City.


"But he's no Floyd Mayweather, Joe Calzaghe or Miguel Cotto, he doesn't have their all-round game.


"We know what he'll do, come forward at a pace and put it all through the left hand. We've got a game plan for it."

Is taking the punch a game plan?

The only fight i saw lockett in was the the russian. He missed a lot of punches. Either the russian was good at ducking punches or lockett is very innaccurate. Maybe lockett can use pavlik's training with the sledgehammer and have him trainer repeatedly hit him in the face with it, it might help him get used to pavlik's power punches.

Are you for real ??

Lockett can bang and Pavlik is no stranger to the canvas. Could actually get pretty interesting.

That being said, i'm fully expecting a Pavlik KO victory.....probably around round 6/7

[No Contest]

He is predictable, but nothing you can do about it. He is not a better counter puncher than Taylor, and he is gonna eat some combos. If Lockett comes out as a defensive/counter-puncher....then he may have a slight shot. It is the ol 1 2 sometimes he throws a double jab...but yeah they only thing thats not predictable is where he's gonna throw the left hook after.

[No Contest]

I wouldnt be surprised though that Pavlik takes those words to heart and just opens up a whole new arsenal on his ass. Lockett isn't that versatlie either if ya ask me, so whats Enzo blabbing about....

Just trying to be sarcastic and funny at the same time. That's all.

Lockett is a nice guy with a huge heart, but he will be totally out of his depth with Pavlik, his best opponent he has faced to date was an aging Ryan Rhodes who is no where near world class, Lockett was lucky to get through that fight.

As people have already said the only predictable thing about this fight is Lockett is going to get busted up, and i just hope his corner have the sense to pull him out before his face gets totally trashed. He cuts and marks up like Katsidis he will be a real mess by the end of this fight unless Pavlik knocks him out early.

Can't see it lasting more than 5 rounds

Im so glad Kelly is predictable. Since his amature days Ive been predicting victory after victory and KO after KO. The run will continue for the GHOST and YOUNGSTOWN, haters will hate, but we just shrug them off and knock that ass out.

All you crack my shit up. I can never tell if you are being serious or not...

I hope Joe C is ring side. If he is look for him to dodge Pav.

[No Contest]

He will no doubt slight him in some way but I don't think Joe is the one ducking anyone..(cough)Warren(cough)...

To be honest with you, I don't think Kelly has many haters. The comments from Locket have been very respectable IMO, yes he said he's predictable, but that is pretty true, he also said he's a great fighter and I think that most fans are in agreement that Kelly is a great at what he does, but what he does is pretty straight forward and been working great for him so far.
