Did Barrera kick Valero's ass in sparring?

In all fairness to Valero, he's a good technical boxer in sparring. He gave Morales all he could handle when Morales was preparing for his first Pacquiao fight. He also toyed with Urbano Antillon, an undefeated lightweight prospect in their sparring tussle, and he made mincemeat of Filipino gatekeeper, Randy Suico. Check out youtube or other sources, you might find all of these there. I also read he gave a good account of himself against his sparring with Barrera, but he throws all these technical skills he had acquired all away when it counts most, the actual fight itself. I guess you have to blame it on his Japanese handlers. They've been dangling an incentive, or a bounty whenever Valero scores a 1st round KO, that's why he's always going for broke in the 1st round on all of his fights. Unless they (Valero and camp) accept that you can't KO all of your opponents as quick as the first 19 he had, they're in for a long night against Pacquiao...

The objective to sparring is to LEARN. Not kick the other guys ass. This means NOTHING. Know the diffrence. When boxers spar they are ONLY looking to adjust/Improve what they have little of. Exactly sparring is to learn for boxers, Barrera was preparing himself for a fight and he would let most of his sparring partners beat him up to prepare himself for a fight.

Valero kick Barrera's ass in sparring, Steve kim and the other guy at Maxboxing has all Valero's tapes, But the guy has NO TECHNIC whatsoever he just swings wildly..NO footspeed whatsoever..He does have a power punch though and Pacman would just run all over him. Valero was first brought in to spar with Morales in the lead up to his fight with Pacman and he was so impressive that Golden boy signed him.

I dint see the Video but i remmember that there was a vid of Valero schooling Morales during a sparing and thats how Fisher from Maxboxing started hyping that Valero was ganna be a champion with his Power and boxing skills. He turned into a KO artist but apparently he has very good boxing skills, dont know if he still got them but maybe he'll surprise evryone by bring that back for the Pac fight.

:haha: :haha: That's very funny for somebody who claims to know his boxing.

Valero's sparring didn't even help.. Valero no footwork and handspeed.. Barrera made a mistake of choosing Valero.. why you hating so much, fucken hater first it was marquez now you guys are hating on valero, lmao

pacquiao didn't do shit against Barrera the second time, he was scared as fuck to jump in like he did the first time around, the valero sparring definetly helped anyone got video of pacquiao v. valero sparring ??? if pacquiao handled valero thats one miracle i'd have to see before i belive

why deduce if manny could beat valero through whether barrera whooped valero or not? manny owned valero, himself, in sparring 5 years ago. manny has to be cautious about getting caught with a wild power punch and should train thoroughly. if he comes in top shape, it will be a mismatch. aside from the unlikely miracle shot from Valero, Pacquiao should handle the V-nom pretty handily...

He sparred with Valero for the second Pacquiao fight, in which Valero was very confident Barrera was going to win. Does that mean Barrera beat Valero in sparring? ok honestly, I like valero alot just cuz there isn't a fighter that puts it all on the line like he does right now but, he isn't that great. I'm sure barrera over weight and out of shape could school valero. valero just needs to stay away from the big boys unless he learns some simple defensive techniques but I doubt that will happen. I think he needs to atleast showcase himself against lesser fighters in the states if he wants to make some money which I'm sure will be his thing in the future. he will be quite the attraction and moneymaker even after he loses a couple of fights.

Enough with the Valero hype already. The guy has fought skinny, drunken girls his whole career and is now, all of a sudden because of his record, the new threat to Pac. ENOUGH! Valero has NOT earned ANYTHING even close to resembling a shot at Pac right now and even if he did, thinking, based off of his record, that he will win is even more absurd.

In the post fight press conference Barrera said the only fighter that can beat Manny is Valero. To be honest Valero is nothing special. I'm pretty sure Barrera whooped his ass.
