    Valero seems to depend on his big left, its hillarious watching him wind it up, while the other two have sticks of dynamite in each hand.

    Personally i'd go for Torres, simply having seen more of him.

    I'd go with Maidana. Torres is a big puncher, but his power is a hair overrated. Look how Holt was able to hang with him for 11 rounds, and Holt's not exactly known for his chin. The only guy Maidana hasn't knocked down in his career was Kotelnik, who I don't believe has been down in his career.

    Holt was getting his ass kicked in the second fight though, in the first round.

    Pretty even although I would tend to lean toward Maidana.

    Torres has a little more muster on his punches but Maidana's hands are heavy as **** too.. It's kinda hard to say who's superior but I would give Maidana the edge in technique.. He's technically a bit more sound than torres.

    I disagree, I think Torres punches more correctly.

    I've no idea where Maidana's power comes from. They don't look much, its that freaky type of power so I gotta say him.

    Holt's not know for his punch resistance, but he is for his punch recovery. :good

    I think at 140 Torres is the hardest banger.
