Finally watched Pacquiao vs. Diaz.

[Gareth Ivanovic]

He also didn't have the style to beat PAc. You have to find a way in, and **** hard. Pac has not seen that fighter yet. Valero is that fight that could either ko manny or make manny great.

Valero isn't that guy. He's gonna try to ****, but then eat about 5 shots before one of his wild shots comes around. I feel Valero may be able to back Manny off with his power unlike Diaz, but not enough. The way Pac was moving side to side, Valero is gonna have a tough time dealing with that plus Pac's lightning fast hands. I see JMM, and Guzman as about the only guys that have a chance against him at 135.

I dunno I mean.. I still am not sold on Valero mainly because of the lack of opposition.
He may come out of left field and surprise us all but I just don't see it. He has power yes, but he doesn't have much skill. Regardless of the outcome I think it will be a great fight.

You have a right to feel that way. He hasn't been able to fight in the states. I can't hate on you or anyone. It is logical, but I think he has skill. He is open at times, but like any fighter, that is a risk when you know a guy is trying to take you out. You have a better chance to counter a guy when you know he is attacking then countering a guy like PAc. Speed kills, so Valero has to fight smart. Valero is a southpaw so that is in his favor also. Not a favor over PAc, just being southpaw.

Ok.. This is a wierd question but.. Does anyone know where Valero isn't supposed to get hit? He failed the brain scan.. So is there apart of his (Dome) that he shouldn't get rocked? I feel like he holds his chin/head up in a way almost to protect the top of his skull.. Anyone have the lowdown on his condition??

Yeah, he can fight in Texas, and Arum is trying to get the fight in Vegas. That is his condition.

I realize he can fight in Texas, I was curious if anyone understood the reality behind his condition. I'm assuming you have no insight. Thanks.

And my DVR didnt tape it. I'm still pissed over that.

Ouch, man. That sucks. I let my nephew record some cartoons a few years back. Unfortunately, he recorded over Castillo Corrales 1.....

We will have to bet on the Pacquiao vs. Valero fight then.. and besides the Soto fight where Guzman ran 5 rounds.. when have you known him to be a runner? Have you watched his previous fights?? The guy was coming off a year lay off and beat Sotto easily.. Give him some credit.

I saw that fight and his strength is fighting off the ropes never try to play his game i the middle he isnt that great cause his hand is so low but if you try to go buck wild on him on the ropes his slip game is crazy! he can tire pacman out like he made soto miss.

I only call him a runner cause the fights I seen of him he has hurt his hands and would slip away and just pot shot or stay on the ropes and slip and then bounce out throwing those under hand punches.

I give guzman this he has an amazing chin and he got faster hands then pacman.

But he will probably win a boring UD but if pacman can keep guzman in the middle of the ring I think pacman can land down the middle if he uses the jab he did with diaz.

also keep in mind Guzman has yet to face someone like pacquiao as well do not forget that.

[2quick2slick]

Valero's steady head would be a perfect target for Pac. Valero won't last 6 rounds.

[eazy_mas]

tried to find the fight on youtube but i couldnt find for it

[them_apples]

pacquiao vs valero will be a joke

Pacquiao vs hatton could be good
