It's over. Demarco retires after the 9th.

Wow - Graham Houston right on the money,

EDWIN VALERO vs ANTONIO DeMARCO | FightWriter

Kudos to Valero...that fight could have been stopped and nobody would have objected. Thought he did very well. He has great reflexes, Demarco did land the cleaner shots, but man Valero is just a force. I just wish Valero would put up his fucking hands. Toot Toot anyone want to join me on the Valero hype train, love the guy...almost as much as the Showtime team. Gus went ooooo a few times think he had to change his drawers

I was pulling for Demarco when the fight started....Never really saw Valero too much and thought maybe he was over hyped, seemed to have alot of out of the ring issues (I now hate Doug Fischer and the ring so I was going to take it out on Valero and hope he lost), Didnt look too impressive in round 1 than in round 2 he starts complaining about an elbow and I am thinking this guy is a bltch.......Than I see the cut and I said Holy Sht this is going to be ended.......No quit in Valero...the guy turns it up a notch...and just keeps going, (When a guy gets a cut like that and keeps going you have to pull for them) I thought he would tire out but the guy is an animal....I dont know if it was round 8 or so when Demarco started to come on and Tony ran into a huge left and that nipped his little rally in the bud....

I was impressed with Valero, the guy is a no nonsense fighter, with good movement and defense (not some over hyped silver spoon btch like Victor Ortiz).......I cant wait to see him again....

Valero is now one of my favorite fighters, he's a fucken wild man! He had a worse cut then Barrera did and still mowed down a decent opponent in Tony DeMarco. Shit, he's a demon in the ring with a better crafted all around game then we had seen previously.

Valero really impressed me, first real glimpse of his natural skills in action. He didn't take as many shots as usual, was patient, and showed some really slick reflexes. Makes me think he can lift his game to match that of his opponents without trouble...
Valero vs. Katsidis anyone? What a tear up that would be for the short time it lasts before Valero probably knocks him out.
