Does he have the skills to pay the bills?
Or is he another pretender?
5'11
Over 300 Amuetur fights.
(24-0, 16 KOs).
Best win over a faded Julio Diaz
I think he has a good shot at the upset.
He fights a lot like Sergio Martinez.
He has the same trainer.
he doesnt have the timing, hand speed and reflexes that sergio has though.
doesnt have the foot speed neither.
looks just like a gangly, jack of all trades boxer/ mover
Seen a video of this guy and it seems he fights with his hands down. Not a good idea against Maidana.

I still think Cayo can school Maidana.
i still think maidana overwhelms him and catches him. his right hand is very sneaky. hes got odd timing on it and he can throw it from distance.
I like Cayo, he does a lot of things right and yeah he drops his hands at times but he tends to keep them up unless he feels a guy in his range, and that's something he's good at controlling... I think he'll give Maidana a lot of trouble and likely win a decision unless he's caught cold with something
For those who haven't seen a lot of him I think there's also the chance he could hurt Maidana as Maidana will certainly be coming forward and if he isn't careful Cayo will tear him up with those uppercuts he likes to really rip from the canvas up... he's good at catching people coming at him with them, and shouldn't be underestimated on the inside by any means as he fights there like a guy who's been there and back plenty of times
I just think he's in a different class to Maidana skill wise, and Maidana will have to get lucky or really force him to brawl
I agree completely.
Those 300 amateur fights must have really helped.
He seems ready for the next step.
There are times when dosen't seem to have much power, but there times when he seems like he has plenty.
Maidana better be careful too. He took a lot of damage against Ortiz.

honestly, i think he has a solid chance altough i favor maidana. cayo has a very awkward and unorthodox style. has quick hands, good reflexes. he controls range and distance well..he could really frustrate maidana with his awkward angles. ill say maidana wins by late KO, but there is a very strong possibility cayo takes him out of his rythm and jst outwork maidana.
I doubt Valero will ever fight Pac.
There just to many good fighters in between them right now.
He'll have to go on a rampage destroying all the top fighters at 140.
And I remember that Freddie said they didn't want to go back to 140.
i didnt mean that i said that to show how much more the loaded the division can get.i agree though i dont see valero beat the main guy at 140 in bradley but stanger things have happened
Cayo is gonna box Maidana to death.
Marco's may come on late if Cayo gets bored.
But Victor will win.
Don't underestimate El Chino, Cayo doesn't have the power to keep him at bay, Chino will walk him down and KO his ass.
Nobody can touch Maidana, he's the most feared man in boxing right now, El Chino can be KD but that mofo will get up and beat you senseless until you can say "No Mas".

I just checked him out.
He looks like a mix between Junior Witter and Sergio Martinez.
Cayo by UD
I could be wrong but i think Martinez and Cayo have the same trainer so it could explain the resemblance

he fights with his hands down and his chin hanging out. he also relies heavily on reflexes for his defense. dunno if he has the power to keep maidana honest.
i say maidana catches him.
