Arum: Edwin Valero to fight Breidis Prescott on July 25... WOW!

[XaduBoxer]

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.

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.
