It is so refreshing to see a thread not about Pac/Floyd. There really should be a seperate forum for those two boxers. It would filter out the nobheads. Anyway back on topic, I think Valero will win this one by a stoppage. I think it will take a while for him to break down DeMarco though. It won't be Valero's usual early round destruction of his opponent. DeMarco will make him work but will eventually falter in the latter rounds.
Demarco, I believe, studied Valero enough to know he's predictable...Valero throws wide and telegraphed punches, Demarco will pick them off, tire Valero and TKO him in the mid to late rounds.
I like DeMarco, but Valero will beat him. DeMarco isn't disciplined enough to beat Valero, he's always open for that left hand and he will get drawn into a war like he did against Alfaro in his last fight and he'll start throwing wild shots.
Demarco hasnt impressed me so far and from what ive seen i dont think he has what it takes to take advantage of Valero's many flaws. I see Demarco boxing carefully and having some success early in the fight but with the passing of he rounds i see Valero's pressure and superior power taking over the fight and he stops Demarco in the eight round.
DeMarco, Valero is open and has been knocked down. DeMarco is very accurate and has decent power, I think he'll stick to the game plan and if the ko comes he'll take it. He should win via tko round 8
I feel DeMarco has sharper skills. If he can avoid the early hard shots Valero comes out with in the early rounds, he has a great chance at beating Valero. I think he can, i'm looking for Valero to be exposed by a good boxer.
I do like Demarco but Valero for me is on a roll, he has more pedigree and mixed in better class. It should be exciting one way or another but i feel Valero sees this as a bit of a breakthrough and will take Demarco out between rounds 5 and 7.
If DeMarco could avoid brawling and survived the firtst five rounds, I can see him winning but decision or late rounds stoppage as Valero's stamina is still suspect. Of course Valero can end the fight anytime with a single shot!
This fight is a toss up for me... I'm rooting for DeMarco to see what Valero is really made of... I'm rooting for Valero to see what DeMarco is really made of..... Either way, its going to be a great fight!
I gotta agree with DeMarco winning but I don't think he'll stop Valero. DeMarco is a good boxer when hes disciplined, and I think he wants this too bad.. or at least I hope so
