U.S. denies visa to Valero!!!

duh hahahahaha am i aware??? i came here in the US using working visa you fukking idiot before i got my green card... how long did the process take? u know damn well it didn't take under 3 months. btw, you are making yourself look like a fool. not to mention, writing your posts in large bold letters doesn't give your statements any more merit or make them logical or better.. it only makes you come off as a douche.

what the fu.ck is wrong with you idiots... the fight is in november that's 3 fukking months away.. he easily try to get a working visa before november.. idiots.. are you aware of the process it takes to get a workers visa let alone appeal the revocation of one? why would you train for a fight you are not sure you will get to attend? that shit takes time and 3 months isn't a lot of time.

I wouldnt mind seeing Soto fight one of the two...but wats the use of going to lightweight if hes not fighting for a World title...Linares is fighting in Japan on Oct.10 against an undefeated opponent 20W (14KO)- 0L true. robert guerrero would be the best bet.

but as a US citizen you are alloud to do those things.. its a fair world aint it? He is NOT a U.S. Citizen and he does NOT have that privilege. A worker's visa is a privilege and not a right. citizens have different rights then non citizens. I've seen other people's work visas revoked because of DUI, Valero is no different just because he is a boxer. The law is the law.

Well this sucks... now the undercard of Cotto vs Pacquiao gonna suck WBC world lightweight champion Edwin “El Inca” Valero (25-0, 25 KOs) of Venezuela has been denied the renewal of his work visa to be able to fight in the United States. “I have been a victim of discrimination by a situation that is clearly political,” stated Valero, who has often showed his admiration and friendship toward Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez. He was hoping to defend his world title against WBC super featherweight champion Humberto “Zorrita” Soto on Top Rank’s November 14 super card in Las Vegas featuring Manny Pacquiao vs Migiel Cotto. Valero will now instead defend his WBC belt on December 12 at El Nuevo Circo in Caracas, Venezuela. “Nobody will stop the career of Edwin Valero,” he added. “Please allow me to fight in the U.S., as I do in Venezuela, Europe or Asia. I am the champion and I have enough sporting merit fight anywhere in the world.” http://www.fight news.com/?p=23441 The flag tattoo, supporting chavez etc, but then claims the US is playing politics. He dug his own hole by playing his own politics and expects the US to play nice. I personally don't blame them for keeping his ass out. Supports the anti American agendas on one hand, then chases after the American dream on the other. The hypocrisy is deafening.

oh, then I could see why. yeah, they revoke work visas for that shit. that's his dumbass fault then, not the U.S. governments.. he knows better then to be driving drunk, especially since he wants to fight here in the states. but as a US citizen you are alloud to do those things.. its a fair world aint it?

Isn't the fight at lightweight though? They'll probably get Miguel Vazquez or Casamayor to step in watch. Where the hell is Linares when you need him?

Hes probably gonna fight another bum on the undercard....But i would like him to have a unification fight wit Robert Guerrerro or Rocky Martinez... Isn't the fight at lightweight though? They'll probably get Miguel Vazquez or Casamayor to step in watch. Where the hell is Linares when you need him?

That's bullshit. I was really excited to see how he faired against Soto. Is there any way he can appeal the decision? I wonder who Soto will fight now?

Since he cant fight Soto.....Hes probably gonna fight his mandatory Antonio Demarco next

WTF Thats bullshit.

Thats what he gets for sporting a stupid tattoo. seriously, valero is a fukkin idiot. that was a poor career choice on his part.

was there an official reason given?

They hate Venezuela. It's true though he's just a boxer, let him fight in the states, he won't get much fame fighting in Japan and Mexico all the time.

Thats what he gets for sporting a stupid tattoo. Yeah he Phuckin killed it wit dat tattoo...i hate that hes so inactive well thats wat he gets for being greedy only wanting big fights
