Edwin Valero Claims a Fight With Manny Pacquiao is a Lock

Originally posted by BIGPOPPAPUMP View PostWBC lightweight champion Edwin Valero (25-0, 25KOs) says that a fight with Manny Pacquiao is a lock to happen in the future. As part of his deal to sign a promotional contract with Top Rank, Valero was guaranteed a crack at Pacquiao down the line and says the only way the fight won't happen is if Pacquiao retires. [details]
Arum is too smart to promise Pac, he should read the fine print. Remember, Bob was the guy who once said, "Yesterday, I was lying. Today, I'm telling the truth."

I guess Valero dosen't realise all these names that are going around, are the names he's gonna fight.....then he's gonna retire, he's a fool if he's signed a contract thinking he can compete with the guys who are calling pac out (since at the end of the day it's all about money, and Pac will fight whoever Arum tells him to fight).

After watching Manny catch Hatton square on the chin like that is
making me wonder if Valero even stands a chance. Valero is wide
open all day. If he can tighten up that Defense and land on Pac
effectively then maybe but at this point Valero would be dead
meat.

goes to show how dam good and advanced valero is. pac's main advangtage is speed and accuracy, valero has the same dam advantages.
By that time, Valero still won't have the resume.

lol @ Arum selling this kid on signing with Top Rank based on a mythical shot at Pacquiao. I'll be very surprised if it ever happens, and then we'll mark it down as another lie from Arum.
Pacquiao is now officially in the business of only making fights that get him eight figures. As of now, only guys like Floyd and Cotto can offer that, along with JMM and Mosley.
Valero would have to get 2-3 BIG wins before this is even a possibility (and that would take at least 2 years, Pac will be retired by then probably)...ph and not to mention he needs get a license to fight somewhere in the US other than just Texas.
