Imagine Edwin Valero vs. Adrien Broner 2 135lbs

[Toney Loc]

DeMarco stopped himself and even though he has a paper title he is just an average fighter.

But he beat one of the most talented boxers Emanuel Steward has ever seen. :grill:

[Canelo Phresh]

Broner and Marquez would have spanked Valero.

[Mike Tyson77]

Please get off the Valero hype wagon, he proved nothing but that he could beat 4th and 3rd tier fighters, not to mention he killed himself and his wife.

He was a nutjob and a hypejob.

You didnt know him, none of you did. He was 27-0 with 27 KO's, that's how ill remember him....undefeated.

[WarMaidana]

He was also a world champion, show some respect for the dead. Especially one who died too young.

he killed his wife then himself are youkidding

[Mike Tyson77]

he killed his wife then himself are youkidding

So ?

[frosty-g]

boner would die

pretty much what i was about to say.
i wouldn't like to imagine it because it would be brutal.

[LeG00N]

I choose to remember him as champ with a perfect 27-0 (27KO) record.

he would murder Broner....

(no pun intended)

When are ppl going to accept that Valero was an unproven bum beater, his ko record means nothing because it wasn't against good fighters.

what is broner precisely?!!!
and even if valero's ko record was forgotten about, all you have to do is observe the power he possessed and the skill level. but oh, you just look at how many guys someone has knocked out and who they were. i'll not bother reading your comments in future...

Yeah and he was ko'd in brutal fashion by Valero right?

being beaten until your corner decide that you shouldn't go out to face another round? that's fairly brutal yeah. try getting whacked around for a full 9 rounds to the extent that you can't take any more and then come back and say that what valero did to de marco wasn't brutal.
your idea of boxing is very primitive and short sighted.

Valero takes this but we have no clue what kind of chin Broner has to determine the how and when. Broner was very wary of just Daniel Ponce De Leon's punching power. He would be WAY too defensive against Edwin Valero to have ANY chance of winning. Add in some other elements such as the fact that Valero was southpaw just like Ponce and perhaps that also threw Broner off. Valero was very talented in his own right and so it is unfair to label it as if it is Mayweather vs Mayorga. The skill levels are fairly even, really. Valero was the bigger guy with more experience as well. All of this stacks up against Broner like a mountain.

Oh, and the DeMarco win was very good. DeMarco was and is once again a legit top 5-7 in the division. Knocking the TKO not being a 'brutal KO' is pure stupidity considering he made a guy quit that otherwise has been in brutal wars and won several fights with come from behind knockouts including one where he was rocked and got the stoppage in the very same round. To have outclassed a guy with his courage so bad as to make him give up says a lot for Valero.

IMO - Valero not only K.O.s Broner... he takes that farking hairbrush of Adriens and sticks it where the sun don't shine

On the real though - Man, I would've loved to see Valero vs. Rios. That'd been one hell of a fight!
