Edwin Valero ranked number 1 by WBC

[MANGLER]

Why is everybody surprised? This is typical sanctioning body activity.

BUT he has fought for wbc latino titles or whatever making him ranked. Valero has no ties to the wbc. I know i sound nit picky but this isnt fair for other fighters who have been working their way up and Valero comes in ranked 1

You do have a legitimate point. Very likely the WBC thinks Valero will bring them money or they have just simply been bought (again).

[KILLA RIGHT]

i really dont care... Edwin Valero is an exciting come foward fighter always looking for a KO. I wanna see him agianst the top at 135 if he gets exposed or not.

Agreed...I can't wait to see him fight against the top dogs.Wether he's the truth or not

[QUOTE=Famoso Matador;4091207]LMAO!
It doesn't make any ****en sense, especially since Valero has been a WBA fighter not a WBC fighter.
Guzman got a shot at Campbell through the WBO rankings i believe, seeing as he was number one at the weight class beneath (correct me if im wrong).
All the WBC is trying tt Pacquiaoo do is line him up to figh.[/QUOTE]

you say that like its a bad thing

Yep, this is the only way we find out the truth. Valero is the biggest X factor in the lightweight division.

[KILLA RIGHT]

^^^ i like that because it's true he can really really change the division if he is the truth

The fight is definitely fan friendly and i wouldn't mind seeing it, I just agree with the thread starter that he shouldn't be ranked that high.

Than again, he has to face the winner of Santa Cruz vs Pitalua, and i doubt that Valero can hang with Santa Cruz. The only recognizable name in Valero's resume is Vicente Mosquera, Santa Cruz is going to stop the Valero hype train.

Look, it's like if Roy Jones in his prime moved up from MW to SMW. He never had 1 FIGHT at SMW but you already know he was the best SMW in that division or thought so so you gave him the number 1 ranking. The WBC thinks he is the best fighter other than their champion so he is ranked as such.

[Left Hook Tua]

good for edwin.

it only took 3 guys over him to jump to 135 and 4th to get robbed for him to get the #1 ranking.

i wonder how high the other guys below him now would be ranked if they got to fight the same opponents valero has...... hmmm......

pac is a fraud! fight the undefeated valero pac. or else you're a fraud!
