The Locust is a villain that you shouldn’t underestimate. Cyclops did and paid for it with a casual back fist. The Locust is not the kind of villain who will listen to the ramblings of a superhero! Still, Cyclops did have the Phoenix Force which means that Locust doesn’t stand a chance here. A quick fireball will end up taking the villain down in an instant. Locust has no way of defending himself from such an attack. Cyclops wins.
