Video of Valero's last fight

[killersheep]

Shimada is the super featherweight version on John Ruiz. Valero's style makes me think of a fencer, I really want to see someone that can challenge him tactically, like say Guzman.

I know that I'll catch an assload of flack for this...but I aint sold on Valero.

Yes he has great power...

Yes...he's exciting...

That is if you like that raw anything can happen style of boxer...

But...in the end...Valero has'nt fought any upper level opposition. He's fought a couple or three gooduns but not any skilled boxers.

Let him beat someone like the Guz, Marquez, or Soto...someone that boxes with fluidity, confidence, & skill...then I'll get on the bus...until then...he's just where he needs to be.

Vincente Mosquera was a very good underrated fighter. The fact that Valero went into his back yard in Panama and took his title was pretty impressive.

As i said in El Gamo's thread Valero is the new De Leon, very limited skills wise but he has amazing power that makes up for his lack of skill. But he will be exposed soon in fact i think a good boxer like Guzman embarrasses him.

Velero reminds me of Khosai Galaxy , a merciless walk in slugger , limited head movement , KO power , and brute strength.
He is exciting but id like to see him fight one of the other champs.

Not really sold either. Mosquera win is not a bad one but a guy that's a little slicker and/or sturdier than Mosquera should be able to outbox him. I don't enjoy watching him fight either, I don't think that taints my judgment of him but who knows.

I think Guzman would totally outclass him honestly, I dont even see a competitive fight there. There isn't really any depth at 130 with everyone moving up so it's hard for me to think of someone who would test Valero in the near future... I think Humberto Soto would be a perfect test and a pick em fight, but any big fight with Valero involved is going to be hard to make as it can't happen in the States.

Good call on Soto.
