    Valero is going to be around for awhile if he can get into the US and has a chance to play his cards...right or wrong, honestly.

    He's got speed, so he throws punches in bunches when he attacks, and has mythological pop; although he's yet to show that power on 'the next level'. What that translates to is a fan-favorite sort of fighter. Not every guy in the ring has to be the most technical guy out there. Some boxing fans love to watch the technical gifts of a Mayweather, Wright, etc. But, as evidenced in recent years- some people really, really love brawlers and power. Gatti, anyone? He was always built on being a warrior who could ****.

    At best, Valero might achieve that level, though with a bit more speed and skill that could, hopefully, let him be a fairly successful titlist.

        I'd like to see him fight Funeka as well. I believe he'd have a great shot at starching Funeka early, well at any point really, but Funeka would be a very difficult test. Funeka has good stamina and we all saw what he did to Guzman with the jab/right hand. Valero would get hit a lot unless he could take Funeka out.

        I think he walks right through Katsidis and Diaz.

              Funeka aint a good choice, not right now. A Katsidis fight would be the best move imo.

                I am a fan of THAT dude... that **** was incredible.

                And he's not black so **** off :roy4:
                He is definitely legit and I think him and Marquez would be a great PPV fight

                  Crazy.
                  He actually has looked better and better with his defense but yeah he still lacks it. But its nice to see that he is definitely improving

                    I rather watch the Valero fight Humberto Soto next. I think that is next logical fight....
