He isn't close to being in the top echelon of fighters today.He's as crude as Mayorga.Good puch which makes him dangerous but any of the elite guys will outbox and kayo Valero.
No doubt Valero is a special fighter. I'm already a fan of his for a long time Hyping him up to be the next Pacquiao is a stretch but he obviously has more skills than some people give him credit for. I just don't think he can go through 5 division beating up title-holders and lb for lbers out the way the Pacman has.
Top Rank has Valero and Guzman. Make that fight and somebody's 0 has got to go. I'd put serious $ on Guzman.
Valero would kill Guzmans feather fisted ass ... he has zero power against a top notch lightweight and i'm not sure if Valero doesn't go up in weight sooner than later.
I think if given the opportunity ... His physical gifts will get him past a ton of elite or primed fighters. I'm sure that he would have that Pacquiao type rise to stardom ...
Valero is a young gun on the rise and if he were to fight pacman in May, he'd derail the pac express in an inhumane way.. He has the style to make pacman feel the pain i know it.
i just hope he doesn't absorb too many head shots when he finally steps up in competition and fights B, A and Elite P4P level opposition.
