Trainer Kenny Adams:" Valero would've beaten Pacquiao, without a doubt "

[Nameless]

Valero was good and promising but is still miles away from the Pacman speed and movement. I think that under Roach, Pacquiao would have eaten Valero alive like Pacman o poppers would do a number on inky, blinky, pinky or clyde.

Finto,

You anti-pacness is starting to annoy me...

What a BIG fluffy story... Valero would also probably KO a sasquatch without much difficulty if he happens to find one! LOL.

RIP, don't you mind these fluffers, Edwin.

Let it be!

Valero was a waste.

Boxing writers that saw him in the gym years ago (dougie fisher of ring and previously maxboxing comes to mind) said he had unbelievable potential.
But he had the motorcycle accident (brain bleed to some degree) and couldn't get licensed in US. He went overseas and by all accounts was training himself. The footwork and technique he had prior to going overseas degraded.

He came back, had a few fights and looked like a beast. Yet, he dumped Adams (reportedly because he had become accustomed to doing things his own way). He needed a good trainer that would refine his technique and footwork.


apparently he was schizophrenic and we all know how it ended.

Adams can have his opinion but he would have been better served to say something like, " I wish Valero could have conquered his demons. If he had been able to do so and had worked on his technique and underrated boxing skills he could have competed at the highest levels of the sport. I could even have seen him beating a fighter as great as Manny Pacquiao. "

But like normal a trainer, manager, promoter, or fighter speaks in complete over the top hyperbole.
