    Could we eventually see these two power punching southpaws square of in 2009 if Pac-man beats Ricky Hatton next.

    It depends, if Pacman beats Hatton and PBF remains in retirement, Pac's next opponent will likely be Valero or Judah.

    Valero is a ring death waiting to happen if he meets Pac

    Valero doesn't bring alot of money to the table...He needs to get known in the states first! I've seen them both fight and I like Pac by KO in this 1.

    Valero has a lot of recognition in Asia, a Pacman vs Valero fight in Asia would be huge.

    Manny has earned his way to being the golden goose now. Valero needs to put a name or two on his resume first. Compare their respective opposition! Not even in the same league.

    who the f cares about Valero needing to 'earn' it. He's got the big zero on his resume, he's knocked out 20 tuk tuk drivers in the 1st round.

    Easy Payday for Pac. A dangerous one too if he isn't focused.

    this luks like an awsome match up on paper. a power punching juggernaut vs one of the greatest fighters of this era. however then I realise valero hasn't even faced anyone whoz in the same league as pacmans sparring partners, let alone pacman himself.

    Pacman by 1 way beating wen Valeros plan fails in the first round

    If this fight happens at 140 its Pac by Ko in the first! I would rather see Pac fight Soto though.

    This will most likely be Pac's next fight if he beats Hatton. Valero is too raw to make it close.

    valero needs to get with a world class trainer first to channel his raw power and aggression.

    Man, Valero's not been licensed in America for a reason. Dude has a "hole" in his head. Pac could kill him, seriously.
