I noticed so many of you have became fans of this dude overnight.. I came on here the day after his fight and you all have sigs and 1000 threads comparing him to god...I'm not trying to star a flame war here...Just wondering what it is you all see...
Only thing I give him props for is he is a warrior for fighting with that HUGE gash. Other than that, he is so sloppy.. He throws the same one-two over and over.. He leaves his guard down and is always open for counters... His mouth hangs wide open which is asking for a KO.. No impressive footwork or head movement.. His head got rocked back several times..
So tell me... What is it you all see?? Is it because of his KO record against nobodys?? Wait till he gets to that world class level and see what happens...
You are not impressed because you're just an average Joe who's mind is manipulated by all the hype you hear on TV or anywhere else, you need to expand your mind, open up to new ideas, go out and explore, Valero offers you freedom, embrace it! Valero is the beginnig of a new era full of possibilities.
How in the hell would you know my mind? You're a troll who's been here for a month..I've been here for nearly a year and a half and hardly ever hated on any fighter.. I try to see the good in all fighters and when I don't see anything special, I call it as I see it.. So just because I don't like your god, I am manipulated by tv?? Bullshit...Your the one who is manipulated by everyone here..Jumping on the bandwagon because it's "the thing to do."
LOL, how does he offer you freedom. Dumbest post I've read today.
I know, right?

Just tell me how they both fared with Antillon.
And don't be mistaken, I love Pac.
I like any southpaw slugger and boxer who brings it.
Pac and Valero both.
I just feel people dismiss Valero too much.
Pac always had chances to prove himself, Valero never did.
thats true..
thats why its better to hold criticism about valero atm.
praising him will come in a later date, perhaps if he proves more..
theres this bradley talk..
now thats a step up name.. that i'll be anticipating.
:)
I only like him because he embarrassed every sparring partner Pac ever had.
And the rumors say, he dusted Pac in sparring, that's why Arum sought softer punchers for him. Mexican guys that were better money fights, and less risk.
I don't know know what you don't like about him, but he brings it.
When he can, how he can.
And the myths about him are great.
I understand if you hate the truth.
A lot of people do :)
hhmmmmm..
reeks of hatred.
Valero brings an old-school feel back to the sport.
That's why people like him. He isnt trying to look pretty or win by decision. He's not even trying to anything that he's not. He's just a fighter plain and simple.
I'm not super impressed by him, but I sure as shit will continue to watch him win or lose. I'm a huge fan of clean technique and skilled boxing, and even I can't understand how anyone doesnt want to root for this guy.
When Valero is fighting youre are anticipating something exciting, lightning, impressive performance, pure action.. Just like watching Shane, Roy Jones, Tyson, Rocky, Gatti, Donaire, Cotto, JuanMa.
This is boxing man. Not Floyd whore style boxing.
Huh? Who said anything about Floyd? I'm talking about what you see in a sloppy fighter such as Valero...

yeah i havent seen too much of valero but he seemed like an all action warrior who win or lose will fight to the end. i dont know how his career will end up or if his win against demarco was the best we will see or the beginning of a solid career but i will be looking forward to see how it all plays out. also as far as the hype on this site goes you should know by now that after a win your the next sugar ray and after a loss your an exposed bum i think that has been magnified with valero because of the lack of major fights and shit to talk about during the last few weeks.
Haha..You're right..What was I thinking? This is the bandwagon station... It's just I never really seen this much hype for a basically no-name fighter...I'm not gonna lie, I didn't even know who he was untill a couple of days ago..I watched his fights- not impressed..
I haven't made a thread about him or am over hyping him but what I was impressed about was that he did not quit with the big gash on his forehead and also showed some boxing skills while he was at it. A boxer with less heart/no determination would have quit and blame the cut. With quitting being a new trend nowdays, I appreciate what Valero did in that fight. To top it off, he won by stoppage.
But he shouldn't be overhyped yet. I knew he was going to beat Demarco by stoppage. But I did not know that he had decent defense for a brawler.
Yea.. Boxing could never have too many warriors...And he is a warrior which everyone loves to watch...But I see in his career him being more like a punching bag, rather than competition...And people comparing him to pacquiao??!! Whats the world of boxing fans coming to???

i personally just like the way he fought through the blood and showed intensity im not with all the fantasy match ups against pac and other top wws at this point all of that shit is ridiculous but i do know that i will be rooting for valero in his next fight and he made a fan out of me. its not that i think he is a pound for pound top guy but i just like his fighting style and with the right trainers and promotion i think he has potential to be one of boxings most exciting fighters
