What's your opinion of Edwin Valero as a Boxer?

way way way underrated

its such a shame what happened for all involved

 

I don't think he was proven at the top level.


Demarco was his best win. I mean look how Broner disposed of him. He beat him much easier than Valero did.



I'd sum him up as unproven and overrated now. I think he could have won a world title at 140, though.

 

he did :yep

 

Yeah he did but that doesn't mean he was proven. I forgot about him because he died suddenly.


His resume isn't that great.


I doubt he would even beat Adrien Broner.

 

i thought you said he could have won not a proven world titlist my bad

valero > maidana

go and ask oscar

 

I think he was better than Maidana when Maidana was younger and at 140.


Valero would have improved i think but i'm not sure how his power would have carried upto 140.

 

as i said ask oscar just before the pac fight at 147

 

Skilled, talented, very powerful but poor mentality. I think he would have been one of the elite in his division and I think he could have been a fairly big star because his style meant he could have been involved in some memorable wars.

 

Oscar thinks Keith Thurman is better than Golovkin.


So yeah i don't take everything he says as good insight.


Broner disposed of Demarco much easier than Valero.

 

I'm sure he would have won a title at 140 but i don't think he was an elite fighter like Pacquiao or Mayweather.

 

Blood and guts type of slugger. Entertaining fighter.

 

Very good fighter and a very entertaining fighter. Your typical breed of guy who would die in the ring if he had to but he was too damn powerful to ever come close to that. He'd still be an undefeated champ today in my opinion.

 

Khan disposed of Judah easier than Matthysse or Garcia did.

 

Khans proven to be a better fighter than both imo.



He has more to his ****nal than just being a power puncher which all Valero was.
