Super piece mate. I think he might make a better trainer than boxer - always struck me as a thinker.

Good write up C.H
I never realised he was pushed into boxing by his dad,he must have took it out on his oppenents,he used to knock them out for fun in the juniors&im sure he went on a stoppage run of over 20plus fights at one stage...

Lockett is a very nice man. Business brain too. Got a wide array of qualifications and buisness ventures. think he will be a good no nonsense coach for years to come

Good read but a mistake -
Amateur Boxing Association champ, who
made beat Sid Razak on his light-welterweight debut in May.

Hiya Tommy, I believe it was 28 consecutive stoppages from the age of 15-18 when I 'lost' in the WABA Senior championships.

Aye, always space for stuff of this quality.
Btw, I love the subtle way Gary put 'lost' in inverted commas
Best use of punctuation by a boxer on this forum.
A rather niche award, granted.
