Sounds good. I hope valero signs a good trainer, because his pwer will carry him, so far. He needs to improve his defense and his movement. If he does, hell be very dangerous!!!!!!

Well what really keeps Edwin from competing in the States…is his head trauma he suffered several years back in a Motor Bike accident. I don’t wish for him to be exposed to danger, but then again its his decision to continue to fight. But the raw potential is their.

confusing. he vacated his wba super featherweight title last year. i thought he went up to lightweight...

I thought he signed with them already, anyways. I know Arum has Valero and Pacquiao on his radar now that Valero is with TR. The most explosive fighter or the most hyped up record? Obviously with a record like his, its bound to create buzz, but will see how he hangs with the elite.

Would love to see Valero **** it up with Marquez before Pac.

valero has loaded gloves!!!

Arum must think its a good idea for Valero to stick at 130. Look for Valero-Soto on the March 28th Latin Fury card

Arum should arrange to have at least on tune up fight for Valero before fighting a beltholder just so Valero can have a better exposure and momentum.

Good ****. Get this man some fights in the states. I wanna see how his power bodes against credible fighters.
