Great, wasn't sure I missed it from the Calzaghe bill as my tape expired.

Long been one of my favorites Lockett - frustrating as hell but a serious puncher on his day ( which hopefully is coming )

Yeah seems to be happening for him again now. Lined up to fight Rhodes in November, and hoping for another somewhere imbetween to keep him active

Lockett will murder Rhodes if he catches him, Lockett is by far the biggest puncher in the middles, markes up badly though which against a southpaw like Rhodes could cause a few problems.

I cannot see Rhodes having that much sucess. Unless he's been suffering from insomnia lately, and he will guage it as a sucess if he finally manages to get his head down, and have a decent sleep :D :D :box:

I know its a poor bill, but a bit worry the lack of advertising for it. I don't think I have seen one advert for the Duran fight. Other ITV2 shows had a decent amount of publicity.

Was lockett's win over Allan Gray screened on ITV2 then?

The programme over ran AGAIN :evil:

My tape covered the Kevin Mitchell fight and then cut out.

Programme only over ran by a couple of minutes (maximum). Unfortunately, no Lockett - I assume ITV were thinking Duran vs McNeil wasn't going the course.

They showed the Mitchell, Minter and main event complete and thats all.

Yeah, was well pissed off with ITV must have had Lockett as a stand by, then as Duran went all the way they never showed it. They did say they were goint to show it. Never mind, if they re-schedule I'll keep you informed. Gary has the tape, and he assures my it's another tasty KO (Nembard stylee), lol.

Kevin, ITV2 are not to be trusted where Sky+ are concerned. Always tape the program after it aswell (Coronation Street in this case) as you will get the whole thing then, if it overuns.

The ITV2 show ran over much more than a couple of minutes. It was scheduled for an hour and a half and I set the video to record for almost two hours (I think), due to previous over running. Good job too.

Oh was it, I thought it was scheduled for 2 hours - fair enough then.
