PAC vs Valero in Nov!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Pavlik]

BREAKING NEWS: PACQUIAO-VALERO ALMOST DONE!

To the Naysayers, Now PAC will be facing the younger, fresher seem to be much physically stronger Valero.
What more can we ask for!!!!!
Go PAC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ICB]

Pacquiao will embarrass and stop Valero round about the 7th round, im a bit confused though because i thought Valero was at Super Featherweight ?? i haven't read the article but is Pacquiao moving down or is Valero moving up ??

[HattonTheHammer]

Dont think arum/pac would be entering into negotiations so soon after the diaz fight.

There is still the fact that hatton hasnt got himself an opponent tied down for later in the year and that fighting him would generate 10 times whatever he could earn from fighting edwin.

[brucelee]

Most probably Valero will go up. With Pacquaio's status, he can now command some conditions to his favor.


Pac fighting Hatton and winning his third title in one year (in case Pac wins against Hatton)would be something more historic and financially attractive for PAcquaio.

Pacquaio vs Valero though will be very very explosive.

Bruce i think Valero is just like Daniel Ponce De Leon he has amazing power like De Leon but he is very limited like De Leon, plus his defense is far too leaky, Pacquiao is far too skilled for Valero and should dominate him unless Valero gets a lucky punch which is possible, but what are all these Pac haters going to say now that Pacquiao is fighting a young champion ?? because they keep claiming he is fighting fighters past there prime whats there excuse now Valero is too green ?? please.

Hattons fighting Malinaggi stiull, as far as I'm aware. Where's the ambiguity come from?

As for Pac v Valero...that's a great sounding matchup, a winnable fight and an easy sell.




Anyone fancy Valero for this?

not at 135 i dont

and pac sure has hell isnt gonna be moving back down if he is serious about fighting hatton

[hackey]

wow, great match up this one. I can see this and the Hatton Paulie fight being used to set up an April showdwon between Hatton and Manny, provided they both win of course.

[Julius Rain]

since hatton is fighting paulie november pac needed another oppenent and they pretty much just fed valero to pac to set up the mega bout between pac and hatton early next year 2009.

Plus guzman,casa,jmm and nate are all tied together and valero is the only one unoccupied. btw valero did move up to 135 i think around the same time guzman did.

[Taeth]

Valero isn't a valid opponent, Pacquaio is going to destroy him... He should have waited for the Guzman-Campbell fight.

[C-Lo]

This would be one hell of a brawl!

I'm wondering what type of strategy Pac would use in this one. Will he follow the same formula against Diaz, flurrying, countering, and getting out of there, or will he go throwback, force the action and trade?

[p4pking]

It actually makes me laugh that a while back, before Pac had fought Marquez again, people were slating him for possibly moving up to lightweight without fighting a threat like Guzman OR Valero. As if they were equal tests. Valero isn't half the fighter Guzman is, and he probably won't do much better than DAvid Diaz against Pac from what I've seen. Guess it's acceptable if they are really lining up a Hatton fight for November though, as any other credible LW wouldn't be ready to fight months before then.

[JohnnyKickAss]

I haven't seen much of Valero,but he is way too slow for Pac...In his last fight Valero was countered a few times pretty good by an average fighter with average power and speed...Valero will look worse than Diaz against Pacquaio...But still who knows what will happen ?!?
