Why Did Valero Reject A Fight With Prescott?

I'm waiting for FINITO's reply. He's the #1 fan and spokesman for VALERO

 

Yeh I don't think Valero is any where near the position of calling the shots, it was a mistake by not taking on the Columbian.

Also in regards to Prescott, does anyone else think he has been too inactive? The man he blew away in 54 seconds has moved to the US, switched to a legendary trainer and is fighting for the 3rd time since that night, and it's for a world title! Whereas Prescott is fighting on the 17th for only the second time.

 

Isnt that we want every fighter to do??? Get the bigger fights?? What if he gets a fight with Joan Guzman or someone like that?? You ******* he feelin pretty ****in stupid then.

And Valero IS a name just cause he hasnt been on american tv you aint finding a boxing fan that hasnt heard of him.

 

I've seen the fight before Khan that was on ESPN 2 FNF and he looked less the average against a less then average fighter and won a SD. Then there was the Khan fight where Khan's chin made him look like the second coming of Wilfredo Gomez. Then there was the fight after Khan against Toledo who is a super featherweight journeymen with a not so great chin and he pretty much went the full 10 rounds with Prescott takin everything Prescott had to throw at him and Toledo didnt even flinch.

So I would say I've seen as much as Prescott as one can see and he's average at best.:deal

 

risk/reward 101.

would you fight a fighter who has no fanbase, bring no money to the table, and who most people think is a one hit wonder, who everyone expects you to beat but who could very well be dangerous...

or would you fight a future HOF fighter who has a huge fanbase, who brings more money to the table, but who struggled in his last 4 fights, who is clearly shot, who's coming off a KO loss, and for whom people will give you more props if you beat.

 

He doesn't want to lose in bad fashion before getting a good pay day.

 

And what if he doesn't? What if he's relegated to a nothing fight on a top rank PPV undercard, I bet hez be feelin pretty dum den dawgZ.

And that's the long and the short of it. He's never been on American TV...thus he's a no name.

Whether you're known on a message board is different then whether you're known enough to draw a crowd.

There's a reason people were leaving during the main event of the Lightweight Lightning card.

 

I'll pick Prescott to beat his ass in a tough close fight that goes the distance.

 

That's all 100% true but Valero is in no position to think that way. Right now he's in the process of rising and taking risky fights is the only way to do it. Fighting easy opponents then calling out Pacquiao, Mayweather and Marquez will only draw laughter.

Some risky fights need to be taken before taking the risk/reward route and fighters usually go that path at the end of their careers when they're looking to make big dollars after accomplishing a lot. Valero hasn't accomplished anything worth mentioning so far in terms of resume.

 

because prescotts not a cab driver.

 

Prescott is pretty bad. I saw 2 of his fights on ESPN and he did not impress me at all.

Valero would beat this guy pretty easily imo

 

coz Valero's *****, like D. Haye :yep

 

Fighters tend to show up in different shape/form for bigger fights. A good example is how Pacquiao looked against Velasquez and how he looked against Morales one fight later.

 

who was that one fighter who said "maybe ill fight that long haired communist prostitute from venzuela next"

Was it casamayor?

and no... im pretty sure it wasnt Barrios
