Comments Thread For: Timothy Bradley-Edwin Valero, Arum Eyes The Fight

[Blue Heffner]

the best 140lb in the world is PACQUIAO...I'm not impressed with Bradley..he fought bums....junior witter overrated, nate campbell overrated....Valero will beat his ass. If he beat Valero then i will give him props.

If Bradley has fought nothing but bombs, what do you call Valero's opponents?

[Frank Martin]

Valero is 28 years old and he needs to cash in while he can. None of those guys are really all that good. They are exciting save for Guzman, but I think Valero beats all of them. Whoever is #2 Valero should fight for the Ring belt, and move up to 140. JMM didn't clean the division out either. So why should Valero?

He can make a good bucks and even make himself more good if he do that. It will do leverage on his fight against Bradley. And there will be more hype. "The best 135 champ going against the best 140 champ". You get the point right?

As impressed as I was with Valero last night I'd still have to go with Bradley. I think he's a little too skilled and sharp for Valero. You never know though. Let's get it on!

I agree, this is a massive step up in class for Valero going from a fringe contender at 135 to the top guy at 140. I'm guessing they're about the same height so why not and they're both Showtime fighters. This is the kind of fight that deserves a few million viewers.

I would give bradley the decision...split decision maybe. I just dont like how low valero holds his hands. I dont think we'll no for sure what he's about until he fights a fighter with a decent chin and knockout power

I would love to see this fight. i actually think it would be a decent scrap with Valero coming forward non-stop and Bradley's speed on display. It has fight of the year written all over it. Bradley needs a quality opponent for June and this fight would deliver in my opinion. Plus a loss wouldn't necessarily hurt Valero, just like losses have not hurt Pac. On a side note Valero just has the look of a Freddie Roach project.

this is valero's real baptism of fire. if he gets past bradley, a fight with pac is possible.

chicken floyd and valero has some things in common. both are undefeated.

Dude go back where ever you came from cause you got it all twisted. First of all most people know that chickens are shot up with steroids to mass produce and so they can grow faster so if anybody is a chicken it has to be Manny. Then you referred to having no balls well most people also know that steroids causes testicles to shrink so if anyone has small to no balls it has to be Manny Pacroid furthermore I think boxing should test any fighter involved with Top Rank right now because it's clearly evident that they will do anything for the love of money over there.

Bradley wins easy, he is plenty solid enough technically to take advantage of all those flaws Valero has at this stage. I guess you can't count Valero out of any fight because of his power, but we would see if that even translates to 140.

[P4P Opinion]

Got to say that I'm nearly converted to Valero. He looked very impressive against DeMarco, who is an accomplished fighter technically with a good record for a young guy. Valero's footwork and combinations remind me a lot of Pacquiao.

BoxingScene.com spoke with Top Rank CEO Bob Arum about the future of WBC lightweight champion Edwin Valero. The unbeaten puncher from Venezuela made a successful defense of his title on Saturday night in Monterrey, Mexico. Before a hostile Mexcian crowd, Valero, with a huge gash on the right side of his head, dominated interim-champion Antonio DeMarco for nine rounds. DeMarco's corner stopped the fight before the start of the tenth. [Click Here To Read More]
