Tough fight for either guy. Peterson can box, but he lacks power, and Valero can box, and he has power. Peterson might be seen as having the pure boxing skill between the two...right up until Valero and his southpaw technique lands those monster body and head shots. Valero in 7 or less.
this is a damn good fight. Hard to call. Valero by UD with Peterson in survival mode after getting rocked a good one. LW is stacked. I'm dissapointed that Valero and Khan seem to get all the attention but not PEterson
valero is still somewhat of an unknown quantity. like nallege said, peterson might not have the pop to put him out but he definitely has skill. i see it as a one sided fight for peterson until about the 5th, when edwin figures him out and clobbers him.
True.. I was very impressed with Peterson when he first came out but Im starting to think that he's a bit one dimensional. And his arsenal of punches are limited, ive yet to see him throw a straight right hand or an uppercut. Left hook is his bread n butter but he needs to mix them more and straighten out his right hand. Valero kills him.
