IMO Demarco didnt come to fight. I think it was way more him then it was Valero. He was in over his head and didnt show up. He should not have lost that badly. Not only that but he showed 0 ability in that fight. He looked like a club fighter. It was like Paulie vs Hatton when all he did was throw a left jab the whole fight. Didnt even look like a pro in that fight. I think both those fights were more on Paulie & Demarco then the opponents but a win is a win and it was an impressive victory. We'll never know what Valero wouldve been

Wasn't he Oscars sparring partner for the Pacquiao fight? I read somewhere he was thrown out of camp because he beat Oscars azz so bad in sparring. He said he wasn't even going 100% against Oscar.

To me Valero was a guy who fought down to the level of his opponents. It's the reason why he really didn't look to skilled because his opposition wasn't either. It wasn't until the Demarco fight that I actually witness him use footwork and head movement. Who know? If the had fought a top caliber fighter he may have shown some other talents that no one expected him to have. Cuz from all the stories I read about this guy was a killer when it came to sparring.

Demarco was still a green fighter.
Valero feasted on taxi drivers and goat hurders.
I have about as much respect for him as i have for the piece of dog **** i stepped in today (I didnt step in any dog **** today but you get the picture).
