When I said "boring", I'm referring to the tournament itself Master Bilbo... I consider this tournament as a one time event only... How many fights before they can crown one champ here and how many years will it take?? Are the boxers involved in this tournament has contracts to continue fighting here until there's one champ? I don't think so... This move by Valero showed that he's not obliged to finish this "boring" tournament... The idea of this tournament is great but I think there's so many complications and problems ahead in order to complete a credible tournament...
Let's also consider that Valero is already a lightweight champion...

This is great if it is pulled off. Every genuine boxing fan has to respect both of these promising prospects for stepping towards each other instead protecting oneself while looking for that big name. Undefeated knockout artist. I will tuned in like a purist because I know you don't have to have a name for the bout to be more meaningful than named fighters at each other. This fight will propel one and stumble another. But maybe if the winner is too good that night it will do more harm than good. As boxers nowadays are more concerned with the reward than the risk. I commend Prescott and Valero for daring to be great...even at the expense of each other.
This fight has me salivating at the mouth. I would not enter the ring with either of these two even if I had a gun !! I don't think there has been a meeting of two such big hitters since the Benn - McClellan fight. Of course let's hope the outcome is not the same for either fighter. I think the fighter who wins this will not necessarily be the one who has the biggest punch but the one that has the best chin and I think it could be Valero.
Valero KO 1.

I've seen Brescott three times, twice he looked extraordinarily average and the other time he KO'd a chinny guy fighting like an idiot in one.
I think he goes early. If not 1, he doesn't make it past three.
This isn't to say I think Valero's future P4P or anything.

Valero is a natural 130 pounder. Prescott is a massive lightweight with a big punch and Valero fights with his chin hanging out. Potential for another massive upset here.
Wow, great fight Valero vs Prescott. I like this Valero kid, his last fight was against a tough opponent and now he is going to fight Prescott. That's good should be a great great fight...for about 3 rounds.![]()
I have changed my mind. I think Prescott wins this fight. I get the feeling Valero is little over-rated and over hyped because KO record. It's funny though they say in boxing "You don't what you deserve. You get what you negotate" So Prescott KO's Amir Khan inside a minute. His reward ? A title show aganist a dangerous Edwin Valero. Where as Amir Khan gets world title shot aganist feather fisted Andres Kotenik and despite the KO Khan's stature and staus within boxing is still higher than Prescotts

valero seems to be a tremendously powerful puncher and is a total swarm once he's got you in trouble. I just think that he may fall when he come up against someone that can punch. he's pretty wild and doesn't have much of a defence.
I think he'll find prescott reall tough work, hes a tall man for a lightweight and can throw some bombs, as Amir Kahn's chin will tell you all about. Could be in for a Prescott win by KO for this, can't wait for it though if it comes off.
