100k on bradley who ever wants it?

Like it!!! But wait until the deal is done and PM me!

He doesn't need to kayo him. He can UD the hell out of him. Think Gatti V Mayweather. That's the difference in boxing skill level. Bradley completely outclasses the guy. Valero should bark up a different guys tree like Madiana, Khan, or Ortiz. He's not beating Tim.

If his mindset is to fight Pac, he should and will beat Bradley, afterall, he's fighting a perfect fight after all those 27 fights no loss record!

I don't understand. I'm all about Valero getting bigger fights and tougher comp. But whatever happened to just dominating a weight class for awhile..then after clearing it out moving up and taking on the top guys there.
I mean I don't mind this fight but I don't like how promoters try and rush fights like that. I mean unless he has been having trouble making the weight then fine. But I'd rather see him dominate down there and then move up. These fighters are still reletively young. And if fighters fought more often it could be easier to do stuff of the sort.

Valero was begging for water last nite. He needs to move up. But fighters being moved up in weight rapidly by taking on the weakest champ of the division is nothing new. Its all smoke and mirrors in this sport most of the time.

But I like this matchup though and bradley will take it for the right money.

If this fight goes down, I willing to bet a couple of Mil on Bradley to win.

If anyone is interested, PM me.

ill take valero for 500k.

i don't think that a valero/bradley fight is 50 50. i don't even think that this fight is CLOSE. the only reason that valeros punch stats were high because demarco was standing right in front of him without throwing anything. i see a wide UD for bradley. valero would be confused for the entire night. bradley outworks you and he dodges & MOVES away from your punches while he out works you with his own punches (i see valero missing all kinds punches against the slicker bradley)

I just can't see a 50 50 in this fight. i will say this though. i don't see bradley knocking out valero. valero has been hurt very badley multiple times before though

(if I'm not mistaken he was knock down before also)

the fight needs to HURRY up and be made so that people can see it for themselves of what I'm getting at is true.

a UD for bradley.

also. I see pacman BEATING valero. valeros style is like pacs but pac is faster, more experience, and powerful. if pac doesn't tko him late he will beat him up for a UD.

valero did awesome last night but some people have left utter realty.

You stating you don't think the fight will even be close, is foolish and lets me know, just how much you know.

Not many fighters can average 96 over 9 rounds even if their opponent was right in front of them. Valero did that all while dodging any attack that DeMarco tried to mount.

It's funny how you say Valero would be this or would be that when he's barely lost any rounds in his career.

Valero's been hurt and down before only to be in control for the entire fight after it... So has Bradley... Or have you forgot Kendall Holt dropping him bad in the first and again in the last?

Unlike most I've seen more than 2 of Valero's fights, so I'm not just gonna over or under rate him. When you see that the fight is actually closer than you thought, you'll remember this post.

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]

Umm.. Hey Bob, how bout not derailing the Valero train so soon?

[Mr Reality]

I would like to see Valero fight a few more top fighters in his current division before the takes the next step. I don't believe Arum's crap about Valero having difficultly making the weight. If Valero losses to Bradley, he would need to fight other fighters instead of Pacquiao. That gives Arum time to protect his prized fighter from a heavy puncher.

Valero made me a fan Saturday night. I thought he definetly looked good but I don't think he would beat Tim Bradley. Would love to see that fight though.

[TintaBoricua]

C'mon.....how the hell does Valero KO Bradley. The conditioning, the hunger, the speed, the skill, the combination punching...

Bradley would beat Valero. I don't care how, he just would.

I've got bets riding on Mayweather over Mosley, whatever's left over after the fight, I'd be willing to stake it if this fight gets made. EVERYTHING on Bradley.

Yeah, I said it!
