Rhodes Pulls out.

Ryan Rhodes has pulled out of his clash with Cwmbran Middle Gary Lockett, with only one week to go. A 'trapped nerve' in his back as his sicknote from mum.

SN are trying to get a late replacement, but they'll have thier work cut out!!

Rhodes shit out

Shame, I was looking forward to this one.

Me too, Lockett is gutted (understandably). Just hope they can save the show and get him a good opponent!!

BoxingChat go to work dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

doesn't matter

Lockett already decisioned Tsarenko clearly in a rematch.

Took some bottle to get back in with that tough Russian bastard too!!

He comes on stronger the longer the fight goes on!

damn. Was looking forward to this one. I think lockett needs to be pushed forward in terms of class - i definitely think he has a shot at euro level and a match between him a dann wud be one to savor.....

I agree, let's hope the winner of Richard Williams-Scott Dann (if that comes off) fights Gary Lockett next, that would be a good fight and we need the best Middleweights in with each other.

Looks like Micheal Jones may be a late sub for Rhodes.

Not a bad opponent considering the notice.

JimmyJamJerusalem · Post by **JimmyJamJerusalem** » 06 Mar 2006, 15:26

Scratch that, looks like Gilbert Eastman now.

Either Jones or Eastman would be acceptable opponents for Lockett's who didn't look great last time out (although clearly ill).
