    I think this is a hell of a fight between two of the best prospects in the featherweight division. One is a strong very skilled southpaw, the other is a very strong skilled conventional fighter.. one fighter has to win, who do you got

    Valdez, but I might be biased. I've been high on Valdez for YEARS, he got robbed against jojo in the am's too. JoJo is extremely technically sound, but I don't rate his athleticism or power high. Velez or whatever his name is took JoJo's shots really well, this is a guy who seemed scared of Ronny Rios's punches. JoJo's speed and reflexes also seem more on the average-a little bit above average side.
    Valdez on the other hand has crazy power, has the skills, and has the speed. He's the whole package to me. He has way higher potential imo too.

    Jojo has really good ring IQ, and fundamentals. Why do you consider hm a bad MF? His power and speed is really average-a little above average. Valdez has a "bad mfers", power, and speed. This is even a worse match up for JoJo in the pros.

    The dude can fight(JoJo), plain and simple. Power doesn't really matter if your chin isnt good which we really don't know about both fighters at this point. Speed is equal and so is skills. It's a fight where both sides will be split and only one can take it... Jojo is my guy, so I side with him bigtime... Just as I sided with Vargas over De La Hoya.:hey

    I have to disagree A LOT with speed being equal. Valdez is much faster imo. I might have to watch more Jojo fightrs, but I'm basing this off his last fight, compared to Valdez against Gradovich. Valdez is so vicious man. Skill it's hard to say, I think JoJo is more technical, the way he fights is really technical.

    Anyways they should really build this fight up. It has a lot of potential, but I have a feeling that a lot of these feathers aren't going to fight unfortunately. You know how boxing is nowadays.
