I'm curious to how he'd hold up to the boxing skills of Ricky Burns or Manny Pacquiao at lightweight and would he even have been able to hit Floyd Mayweather at all?

I mean the toughest fight he had was arguably Antonio DeMarco who Adrian Broner just stopped a round quicker than Valero.

The sad thing is, I heard his name a lot when he was alive and decided I'd check him out later, I was wrong and that's still a bitter taste.

I'm not at all sure if this has been brought up before, but I'm just trying to gain some knowledge.
He was a very powerful puncher. Plenty of first round KO's. I think he won something like 18 straight in the 1st round and gained notoriety from that. He could have done very well with a punch that strong, but I'm not a big fan of discussing him after the wifebeating dipshit murdered his mrs, then lied about it and took a cowards way out.
