It's actually hard to even say how far he would have gotten. To me, he could have gone up to the very top. I think he had all the talent to become a P4P top 5. Mosquera and DeMarco were great performances and showed that not only was he a slugger with power, he also had heart and chin and he had footwork and was a good counterpuncher. He had a very wide skillset and he could have developed into a truly complete fighter who could brawl, punch, slip, counterpunch, dance around and take a punch. Like the case with Ibeabuchi, there was no blueprint on how to beat him.
heart? the ****ing cowardly lion is less coward than that ****ing wankstain and the tinman has more heart than 10 valeros 88 you are a completely emotionally ****ed up waste, go see what you can tie your clothes too
Guys I know this is all a shocking tragedy that has happened but the thread is about Valero as a boxer. It's like if I make a thread Poll: Monzon vs Hagler and the only responses were along the lines of "**** that piece of ****."
I don't know how much props he should get after killing somebody. I won't bad mouth him, but the dude always seemed a little off and now I think we came to find out that he was really off. Wasn't there a story about him beating his mother up or was that someone else?
It wasn't valeros fault http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=220163 Andre Berto says so
^^^^ obviously thats a steaming pile of wank but kudos to berto to have the balls to so publicly diss women
Good fighter with a lot to work on and improve before he ever became a top notch one in today's game. Powerful, gutsy, quick, and tough, but really raw, unpolished, and not all that skilled.
