Valero found hanged in his cell

[paddy448]

I no what he did to his wife was wrong but I can't help but feel pity for him. He must of been a troubled soul. Does anyone no what kind of upbringing he had. This all would make for a great film. Young boy climbs out of the slums to climb to the top of the boxing world, knocking out every one along the way. Only for his childhood demons to get the better him, leading him too self desruct, murdering his wife the killing himself, leaving the boxing thinking of what could have been

This whole ordeal is tragic. Valero was set to be a star and all this breaks out. I can almost bet you Edwin had frontal lobe damage from boxing and his accident (I believe it was a motorcycle accident) that caused him to have a plate in his head, its either that or a chemical imbalance or both and of course his substance abuse....tragic

Rest In Peace to his beautiful wife for sure.. But, I was seriously looking forward to a book being inked by him while in the slammer man.....

was just watching his last fight ever against de marco and remember thinking to myself at the time how great it would be to see matchups like valero-khan, valero-marquez etc

Gutting that we`ll always wonder how great a fighter this guy could of been and the legacy he could of left in the sport

27-0 and dead, heartbreaking
