Arum: Edwin Valero to fight Breidis Prescott on July 25... WOW!

Edwin Valero, THE RING's No. 3-rated lightweight, is close to completing a deal to face Breidis Prescott on July 25 in Mexico, promoter Bob Arum said.

The fight will take place in either Cancun or Toluca,which is near Mexico City, he said.

Valero (25-0, 25 knockouts) is coming off a sensational knockout of Antonio Pitalua to win the vacant WBC lightweight title on April 4 in Austin.

Prescott (21-0, 18 KOs) burst onto the international scene when he knocked out then-unbeaten Amir Khan in one round in September. On Feb. 20, he won by disqualification when Humberto Toledo bit him on the shoulder.

Valero and Prescott are a combined 46-0, with 43 knockouts.


AWESOME fight....;D

That is a great news. 'Hope it happens.

Two boxers throwing many BOMBs until somebody kiss the canvass... ;D
.

Where's your source man, I don't want to get excited about this, just to get dissapointed. Also isn't Valero still in the tournament?

Valero is a Top Rank boxer... He'll not be obliged to follow that GBP promoted lightweight tournament...

Actually there is a rule on here about posting sources, so the boss man doesn't get into legal trouble with other sites.

And it's not that I don't trust you, but I might not trust your source, in this case it is indeed credible. I still have looming questions about the LW tournament, has that been scrapped?

And vacation was nice thanks for asking.

This is more serious than you think, legal action has been threatened against Saddo himself. Since that time he has made it a rule to post sources on all articles. No reason to not post the source.

I fully understood Killa man... I think various sites nowadays love to have their links posted everywhere for some additional traffic... ;)

Hmmnn the (boring) lightweight tournament, which match-up interest you out of these 4 boxers; Valero, Katsidis, Escobedo and Reyes?

Valero vs. Katsidis will be a little interesting..
.

Did anyone read the whole of that article. Valero's wife was SHOT at the weekend :o

Surely that merits a news story of its own :o

Yeah that's messed up, in the thigh out the ankle, how does that happen?

We will know if Valero is the real deal if this fight takes place, Prescott will be no pushover and i actually think he will beat Valero! Brave move but it had to happen, Valero must prove himself against a genuine contender. Should be a great fight (if it happens)

Thanks for pointing that out MASTER Bilbo... That wasn't there when I first read the article!!

Tho I accept, I intentionally omitted the crap news at the end of the article about JCC Jr. against another TBA boxer... ;D Brace yourself for another "Latin Fury" PPV...

boring? the whole card was entertaining, i'd love to see Valero/Katsidis and although i basically have no faith in Escobedo, Reyes put on a good performance as well
