Edwin Valero Cleared To Fight in Texas!

Yes, Guzman Valero would be extremely exciting

[ICB]

I like Valero but he is very limited and has no defense either, im just waiting for the day he will get exposed. Guzman would give Valero a boxing lesson IMO power only gets you so far in boxing there will come a time and it will come quickly for Valero. When he realizes power won't save him in every fight.

Yeah Guzman would pick him apart but as long as he is aggressive and has that power, he can make some noise. We just saw it in Katsidis. Katsidis has much more polish but the same concept.

[C-Lo]

I wouldn't be surprised if we actually get to see Guzman vs Valero in the near future. Neither of those two will be able to see Pacquiao anytime soon. Guzman because Arum was not so happy with Guzman's running against Soto and Valero would need to work his way up to make it a big money fight.

Golden Boy has Guzman and Marquez in their roster so I also wouldn't be suprised to see that happen either. That would be a great fight and also would add to either's "money making ability" and wouldn't hurt their legacies either.

This is a Valero thread, how did I end up focusing on Guzman?!

It's not that hard seeing as how he is NEVER talked about. Could be the most talented boxer in all the sport and no one talks about him ever. Even I'm guilty and I'm a fan, the guy is a marvel to watch but for whatever reason just doesn't have a buzz.

[DAVIDTUA]

true! i loved his last fight damn he dominates!

he schooled ummm whats his name soto bad.

[amat]

Yeah he did. A pretty highly regarded Humberto Soto who a lot of people wanted to see fight Pac.

Back on the subject of Valero. Part of what made him such a phenom, in addition to his knockout streak, was his high profile sparring sessions. Here is one of them with Bobby Pacquiao conquerer Urano Antillon. It's old but, given Urbano's big win, it's worth another look.

So impressive is Valero in these sparring sessions, makes me think he can box a little.

[DAVIDTUA]

NICE!

thought it was gonna have EV KTFO out of his sparring rates for like 10rounds tho lol

[ono]

Valero would have a great chance of knocking Pac out. JMM nearly did becasue when it gets wild, Pac leaves his chin out to dry. So does Valero mind.

Be awesome to watch!

Valero doesn't have good head movements and lateral footwork.

Pac would take him out before Valero could have his gun drawn.

Manny Pacquiao and Edwin Valero actually sparred before. According to this Pacquiao interview IN TAGALOG...

Pac said "Valero is just a mediocre puncher with a big mouth, that's what he really is".

[CutMeMick]

Am I the only one who's asked himself:
"What will happen when Valero takes a hard shot to the temple?"

I think Vicente Mosquera floored him before. But I don't know if it was a headshot though.

[boozeboxer]

I agree Mick, but I want him to do well. I think he is good for the sport. Pac is full of shit with the mediocre punching stuff. Hell Valero hits people in strange places and they go down.
