    Valdez was a great fighter, but didn't fight that many big names. Did he duck people, or was he ducked? His record does not have a lot of big name fights win or lose. This is his big opposition:

    Bobby Cassidy: A fairly good fighter with some good wins, but he was inconsistent.
    Bennie Briscoe (3): Obviously Valdez' three greatest victories.
    Vinnie Curto: Another decent fighter, but who was also inconsistent.
    Carlos Monzon: He gave Monzon tough fights, but still lost both of them.
    Hugo Corro: Corro was a decent fighter, but relatively unheard of when they first fought.

    Valdez lost 4 of his 9 major fights, and not all of those could even classify as superfights.
