Humberto Soto vs Edwin Valero Nov. 14 - who wins?

On the Pac/Cotto undercard for the 135lb WBC title. Who wins and how? Soto is one of the toughest fighters below 135 and has never been stopped and rarely even hurt. Valero with one punch knockout power in both hands has destroyed close to 90% of his opponents in the first 2 rounds. How do you see this fight playing out? All-out brawl or a fine display of the sweet science? Analysis & detailed predictions are welcome.

Soto is pretty open to be hit and has very average speed. I doubt the extra 5lbs will make him any faster or harder to land on. Valero should be able to minimize return fire and stop Soto if he utilizes an in and out attack like he does when sparring. He's far more talented than Soto and does not need to brawl but either way I don't see this fight going to a decision.

I'm guessing soto will be more cautious than valero. valero is gonna be himself... come forward and throw bombs. I think soto will try to box a little more but also throw a lot of bombs. this fight aint going the distance. great fight while it lasts. might be the next corrales/castillo.

Agreed. But is the fight signed? Not only is the fight not signed, Valero still isn't officially licensed in Nevada. Once he gets his license we should quickly find out whether this match will happen or not.

gonna go with soto, soto can take punches better then valero. I've seen a tired valero get rocked and hurt by mosquera. Willing to bet a total of 200k on soto beating valero. **** i'm a fan of soto but of valero's to ill put up 15k how's that? I barely got in the betting game
