    From Dan Rafael latest blog on ESPN.com....

    -------------------
    • One fight Arum mentioned to me as a possibility for the Cotto-Pacquiao undercard is a lightweight title match between Edwin Valero and junior lightweight titlist Humberto Soto, who plans to move up in weight. That's a can't-miss fight.

    -------------------

    I got a feeling it won't happen, but if it did..who would you favor to win and how?

    I read somewhere that Arum would be going all out with the undercards for this one. If these will be the kinds of fights that we're getting then.. holy ****! That would be awesome!

    I pick Soto by stoppage, but this would be a barn burner for sure!

    Valero will say he's looking for big fights and duck Soto. J/k...

    Why can't it happen? Valero and Soto are both under Top Rank.

    I didn't say it couldn't happen, I said I have a feeling it won't happen. Seems like everytime a decent undercard is put together for a major PPV, it slowly crumbles and we end up with top fighters facing c-level opponents.

    Soto would get ktfo out by Valero. Soto is a good fighter, but he is not strong enough to defeat Valero. Coming at Valero is suicide, and Soto doesn't have enough boxing skill to beat an elite fighter like Valero. Valero in 5 or less...
