Edwin Valero’s Perfect Punch Storms The Lightweights

[Reggie Miller]

there was no way he wrote that in 30 mins. that was done in advance.

these boxingscene writers have machine guns in their hands.

Do you think we are all getting a little ahead of ourselves? It was a vacant title. So can he really be an official lightweight champ? He didn't beat the champ to become the champ. He had to wait for the champ to vacate before rising to the challange.

Good point!

Great win for Valero, another average fighter on his record. His style is still kinda open but has much work to improve.

Arum guides his career fighting a few more nobodies to gain peoples interest then he finally gets in there with a legitimate name like a Soto, Guzman, Marquez, or Pacquiao and he fails.

Plus Pitalua was grossly over-rated, and was not a legitimate contender, IMO.

From what I've seen of Valero I've always thought he was a disaster waiting to happen. But tonight I have to say he looks like he's tighten up that defense a little and he can obviously punch. I think mabey he can hang with some of the other top lightweights, a least for a while.

And not to get to political on these board's but even though that new tat is kinda ugly I love what it represents. The Bolivarian Revolution represents a level of Democracy that we couldn't even dream of in America. Barack's is just a business democracy and any kind of real social change is illegal among those ranks.

Valero is more garbage than I thought.

Man my money was on Pitalua, Valero is my country man and all but I can't stand that communist **** especially with that Venezuelan flag and Chavez's nasty ass mug. I knew Valero was going to win but I expected Pitalua to take the fight to him for at least 5 rounds, what a shame.

Whats with the dumb comments about Puerto Ricans?
Have you been hurt?
Its not like we only have one champion boxer representing PR, your comments are dumb. Good job "repping" your people.

I agree he should fight someone legit, but Guzman?
If anything Guzman should fight Valero to see if he is legit.
I would like to see that one, see who comes out of this one with their over blown O's.

Pitalua must have the weakest chin in boxing......either that or he just laid down and took a dive and collected a pay check. I saw the punch. It was a nice right hook but not that devastating.
edited to add: or perhaps Valero's hand wraps should be checke for illegal substance.
