    And vacation was nice thanks for asking.
    I fully understood Killa man... I think various sites nowadays love to have their links posted everywhere for some additional traffic...

    Hmmnn the (boring) lightweight tournament, which match-up interest you out of these 4 boxers; Valero, Katsidis, Escobedo and Reyes?

    Valero vs. Katsidis will be a little interesting..
    .
    boring? the whole card was entertaining, i'd love to see Valero/Katsidis and although i basically have no faith in Escobedo, Reyes put on a good performance as well
    Yeah I must agree I enjoyed all 4 fights from the Lightweight Lightning card.

    Arum: Valero to fight Prescott

    It come from a Ring blog, but they say the aricle comes from Deportes Meridiano OnLine - Caracas, 15 de abril del 2009 and it also says Valero's wife was shot in the thigh and the bullet exited by her ankle? I tried to find the article but it was already moved. With the translation it is difficult to search the site.

    I like this matchup a lot. I think its a much better move to put him against a solid fighter before going after the more proven elite fighters. BTW boxrec says the fight is tentative for Mexico.

    Guess Arum has a few marbles left after all .Nice match up,leaning to Prescott.I think both should just cut to the chase and fight Antillon now as opposed to later .
    Prescott was working on his boxing-power game with the human land shark Toledo last fight out.Will have to be very smart here.So much for a Khan rematch.

    Valero vs. Antillon?? They're both Top Rank boxers and Arum smart enough not to match up his top prospects before they reached the top of the heap like what Arum is doing in Margarito vs. Cotto and the forthcoming Clottey vs. Cotto fights...

    The fight will take place in either Cancun or Toluca,which is near Mexico City, he said.

    Valero (25-0, 25 knockouts) is coming off a sensational knockout of Antonio Pitalua to win the vacant WBC lightweight title on April 4 in Austin.

    Prescott (21-0, 18 KOs) burst onto the international scene when he knocked out then-unbeaten Amir Khan in one round in September. On Feb. 20, he won by disqualification when Humberto Toledo bit him on the shoulder.

    Valero and Prescott are a combined 46-0, with 43 knockouts.


    AWESOME fight....
    exciting fight if it comes off. Y'see Amir that's how it's done....I'll shut up now for four or five posts

    Thats a great fight right there. Somebody's getting brutally knocked out, I'm learning towards Valero.

    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.

    I'm not so optimistic, but think Valero stops him by the 6th.

    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.

    Raining on my fantasies eh.The man is ranked # 1 at 135.You can't get much higher in the heap than that.That is of course,until he gets a title shot .Antillon is one I'm going all in on to become a Champion.Would have loved a Humberto Soto fight,what a scrap, but I think he is going to crash the gates when the opportunity is presented.
