because he didn't want to or couldn't figure out how to. People act like hamsters on a wheel.
Why do people continue to smoke knowing it increases their chances of getting cancer?

Thing is, people make comments as if Valero was 100 percent sane.

The guy obviously had some mental issues that he needed help on. This reminds me of the Chris Benoit incident almost.

Valero to me and from what i've been reading seems like he had some very huge mental problems, possibly a chemical imbalance or something. the guy should have been put in a psych ward where he could have gotten help.

I call bullshit on people saying that he couldn't have gotten help or that his promoter couldn't find a way to help him, thats bullshit, the promoter HAD a way to help him, but the only way it could happen would be putting him in a psych ward which would have effectively ended his boxing career probably. I'm willing to bet the people around him business wise only used options of helping him that would have NOT ended his boxing career, and that is their fault for being selfish people, so what if it ends his boxing career? At least this stuff wouldn't have happened.

Not only that but he was a drinker and an alcohol abuser, and all that mixed together only is a recipe for disaster.

If he wasn't sane enough to get himself admitted into a mental facility then people around him who cared about him should have done it for his own good. Cause leaving a guy like that on the street without help is idiotic and can only lead to disaster when he fully spirals out of control.

Ive been through situations where I've had friends with disorders just discovering it, and I'd help admit them into the psych ward because that's where they needed to be. Cause it's downright scary watching someone completely wig out when something has mentally gone wrong.

The people around Valero, his promoters, his family, yes even his wife, should have admitted him somewhere.

And if his wife actually did drop the charges when he first beat her, then that was the worst possible thing she could have done for her, and for him.

Her dropping the charges against her husband, is what lead to her death, and his death.

I don't care how much you love someone, you don't drop those kinds of charges or what do you expect to happen?

The moment he put his hands on her and injured her, she should have got him arrested and not dropped the charges, he'd have gotten a psychiatric evaluation and I can guarantee you they would have found something wrong in his head, something mentally wrong, and he'd have been treated and medicated for it, he'd have spent time away in a psych ward for a few years maybe or even maybe for his life and needed supervised visits to see his children.

Maybe his boxing career would be over, but at least he'd be getting help, and his wife would be alive, and his children would be with both parents. There are times when boxing doesn't matter anymore. If his promoters or the people around him cared enough to END his boxing career by putting him in a psych ward then this kinda stuff wouldn't have happened, but they wanted to keep his boxing career going by doing the bare minimums, because i can guarantee you if they had tried everything to help this guy he wouldn't be a boxer anymore, he'd be getting help in a psych ward and his career would be over. But if they just went bare minimum to try to keep his boxing career alive then they are just as much to blame for this.

And I hate to say it but if it's true that his wife dropped charges against him because she loved him, which ultimately caused to nothing being done about it, then it was that selfish act out of love that caused this entire downward spiral to happen.

RIP Mr and Mrs Valero. I hope people learn from this. If someone has a problem, GET THEM HELP! If you don't only the worst can happen.

When someone is mentally imbalanced you don't drop charges against them regardless on how much you love them if you love them then get them the help they need.

if someone is mentally imbalanced and you don't get them help because you love them and it could ruin them, then it's going to always happen until a tragedy. What people must understand is if someone has a mental condition they aren't in their state of mind, they aren't gonna think that you didnt report them and love isn't gonna be a factor, it's just gonna get worse and worse and worse, this is a prime example of what can happen if you let things stand because you don't want to end a boxing career. Life is more important then boxing.

Agreed but she isnt wholly to blame here there are many other variants.

We all know even if she did charge him he would get out soon enough and maybe even hunt her down for it.

He allowed this crap to fester in himself.

Women are easier victims than us too, they're usually romantically foolish ,easily scared, or have a great faith that all things work out in love.
I agree if all women were like blokes then girl beaters would be either charged or woken at 3 am one morning with their both knee caps removed.

But like ive been reading these promoters and etc say he's had these problems for a while and I wonder why they never put him in a psych ward. And what I think it came down to is if they had put him in a psych ward or gotten him mental help it would have ended his boxing career, they didn't want to take that route and it ultimately cost everything. That was the biggest mistake they could have made.

Maybe his motorcycle accident when he got brain damage had something to do with the madness. Traumas to the brain can really send people physco.

Either way he took the pussys way out, its the kids I feel sorry for now they have no parents.

Oh well, rip Valero and his wife.

Why should Valero rip he took his wifes life then killed himself, the b*****d.He had some demons yes so why did'nt he get help.

Why RIP for Valero? Mar's post brings up my exact thoughts on the matter.

..a sad story all around reguardless of what actually happened. People take sports way too serious with all the i love this guy i hate this one. When it all comes down to it boxing, football, soccer etc don't really mean shit in the order of what's important in life. The guy and his wife were human, easy to sit back and say this and that about any of these fighters when none of us know nothing about them only what you read and see on t.v. I feel bad for them both and thier families. The job of the media is to sell and make money, if they wrote the truth you'd find out thier lives are really no different than most of ours and who wants to read about that. Bottom line I don't know the what, why, of what happened but my condolences to all. Especially the wife who seems to be an innocent victom.
