Ed doesn't suck.....he's just still very raw. But he potential is there! Many said PAC sucked too after beating Lebewah and MAB earlier into his career after landing in the states. ED just needs to get back to the boxing skills I've SEEN in tapes during incredible sparring sessions. When he gets into the real thing he just goes gun happy and relies everything on his power. That won't work agaisnt top guys who can box and bang.
he just used his jab and footwork better than people thought...and why not most of his early fights was just windmill impersonations. the guy is pretty poor. but becuase any improvement shines so much over his pretty basic skill set it looks like he gets better and better. but really he is the soulja boi of boxing
" Edwin Valero still sucks" .... Thats not a really bad for Valero considering how Mayweather sucks all the time. Lets Valero sucks longer and even to the end of his career as long as he knocks out next opponents and climb in p4p ranks.
Valero won like he always does...stoppage. Sucks that he's not boxing his way to 12 round decisions and giving the fans what they really want, doesn't it? If only he'd show some nice slick defense he might be alright...pshh Anyone who doesn't like Edwin Valero is a certifiable ******. There, I said it.
come on past demarco test relativly easy young tough challenger an had to deal with cuts no were near sucks an i like soto a lot but he has 7 loses but realy 6 cause first fight with lorenzo bull**** would be great test to see were both are but sucks 27-0-27ko plus 19 first rnd kos even aginst second tier would be semi impresive but kos still coming as comp improves so this pretty lame statement
valero had always been an alpha male boxer in his sparring sessions. he's a legend in many gym wars including sparring KDs over urbano antillon, wars with morales etc. But i still won't get lost in the fight that he only beat antonio demarco. a fight with bradley whom i favor to beat him would define his standing in p4p sense
O.k., so I watched his fight with Demarco. Still not really impressed, but he is making some improvements. I still think he's way too wild and out of control a lot of the time and that is going to cost him. And, his power is not what people think; he couldn't even hurt Demarco it seemed like. I think Valero loses @ 140 very soon if that's the weight he decides to campaign at.
