Wrong weight class and a wrong opponent for Valero. There are bigger fights against easier opposition in 135 for him imo.
Valero should stay at lightweight were hed be #1 (unless Marquez goes back) I think Valero should fight Soto instead. That would be an excellent fight!
Arum is spewing out of his ass, he knows damn well the fight isnt going to happen if Valero doesnt get a visa, but if it does....have it in PALM SPRINGS BABY ringside seats all the way!!!
i think the logical fight for him right now is sotto... i wouldn't mind seeing him beat the **** out of that *** paulie.
bad weight and style. Valero should continue fighting a few guys that are very decent but that match up well to his style or at least tolerable. Bradley would school him IMO.
Soto lost to Guzman I would like to see him fight Guzman or Funeka. those are the best lightweights. Soto has had only one fight I beleive at the weight. Arum needs to shut up about Bradley, that would be a horrible fight to put Valero in.
That would be a FIGHT Valero would get completely outclassed, but he would dogfight that out for as long as he was standing Make it happen
If Valero is having trouble making 135 then moving up is a good solution to that. I think Valero will be stronger if he moves up. LOL if he wins against Bradley, I bet there will be some that will accuse Valero of steroids!
Valero has the natural talent. He needs a new trainer to work on those talents. He seems to have the heart, he has power, he has great handspeed and reflexes. On top of it all is his ability to be fluidly in and out using his left glove to cover against the counter while backing up. His movement as times reminded me of Tim Bradley. Obviously not as advanced but impressive none the less. I must say I did not like Valero before tonight, he seemed too raw and 1 dimensional to me and overhyped a little. Tonight he gained a fan, one that will support him in his further development.
