Edwin Valero is found dead

Do you really think Arum is the type of promter to advise one of his money makers to take time away from the sport and get help? especially when you consider Margarito is in the shitter, Floyd left him and all he has is Pacquiao and Cotto pretty much....

Glad your not seeing my view as an excuse what I can say is that yes the actions are his fault and god will and likely already has handed down his punishment, however he is also mentally ill, something we should take into consideration as well, not saying to give him a pass but as people we should try to have a better understanding for these kinds of things becuase there are thousands of people just like Edwin who are living their lives having to deal with this kind of ****...

 

It's really a sad and disturbing situation. Terrible waste and a real shame that he couldn't find a better solution for his problems.:verysad

 

He still could have seeked help...We dont know if Arum would have helped or not. I'm just not buying that!:-(

 

Doug Fisher, formerly of Maxboxing, is partially to blame as he always talked up Valero as if he were something special. It was that arrogance that led Valero to believe he could get away with anything, including beating his wife and eventually murdering her.

Doug Fisher-accomplice to murder, enough said.:twisted::twisted:

 

The thing is, people who are mentally ill aren't always capable of seeing that they need help themselves. Valero might have seen it like a sign of weakness. Being involved in a sport which has a lot of pride involved, admitting that there is something wrong with you is pretty tough to do

 

Very good points

 

What a shocking and unexpected turn of events.

 

I wonder how he was as a person before the head injury???

 

wow.i am speechless the whole ordeal played itself out pretty quick
the guy was mentally ill and evryone around him only cared about the boxer not the person
so sad all around

 

I am truly disgusted. One of my favourite fighters has done such an evil thing. What a waste for boxing. I am saddened that we will never see him fight the guys. What a waste for boxing, good riddence Valero you piece of ****.

 

....

 

Exactly. That's the ****ing first thing I would have done.

 

bc the police officers are probably the ones who killled him.

cant always believe what media says.

 

ya sure bro.....:---(
