    jso, I know you are probably thinking that it would be crazy to do that since Bradley is such a beast but again, as great & exciting as Valero is, he may not ever be a star. Most guys had never even seen him on TV until this fight. Arum knows that as great as Bradley is, I still felt that he had 2 suspsect looking fights in a row with Holt & Nate. Both of them guys were tagging him good. Valero is a big puncher and is a Southpaw so I think Arum see's it as a situation where if Valero loses then its not a big deal to lose to a beast like Bradley at 140, e****ally when Valero probably is a long ways from being a star if ever, but if he stops him then the boxing public will go insane and Valero is only 1 weight class away from Pac. Im also sure that Arum would let them meet at 144. Once the mainstream catches it then that fight could do 2mil and Arum has both guys. Thats mega

    I don't honestly see Pac fighting Valero ever. That kind of thing has been talked about since 2006.

    It ain't happening. Mayweather is where the money is, or hell even Mosley.

    No way no how, a guy never fighting in the states does 2million.

    Bradley isn't that popular. We care but the mainstream who make up 2 million and a ton of the buys don't know him from Adam.

      jro, I get the feeling if Valero beat up the world, there wouldn't be a Pac fight made anyways.

      I don't see Pac going from huge paydays to fighting Valero, even though I've always dreamed of seeing this one.

        Bradley has grew on me. But hes a volume puncher. Which means there will be plenty openings for Valeros left BOMB.

          I don't see it happening either... But, if Valero stops Bradley And, lets say it does happen. I don't see how you can complain about a Pac-Valero fight...

            NO, I didnt say that. That wasnt my tone when I was writing this. I was laughing, like Arum is trying to be sneaky again. I dont think its a bad thing. I just think it is what it is

              Pac has no business fighting Valero unless its at 135.

                Pac's not gonna fight Valero.

                He only has a few fights left, probably. He's gonna cash out and get as much money as he can.

                  Dude, I'd spend my paycheck on front row seats if that came off.

                  Hell yeah.

                    Hold the phone... If Valero KO's Bradley... Who for the majority think is #1 at JWW... How does Pac have no business in fighting Valero above 135?

                      I think you guys are underrating the power of the moment. Thats why I said Arum is doing this. Valero is not a star and wont make any kind of big money any time soon so thats why this is worth the risk. However, if he beats Bradley then he is a mega star "inside of boxing". You add that to him signing a Pac fight and the mainstream hears about him and see's him then this fight is huge. Once they hear that this is one of the most talked about fights in boxing, how this kid stopped 19 guys in the 1st and had an 18 fight streak, how he's stopped every opponent including the elite Bradley, how he dominated legends in sparring, how he fights like Pac, and how everyone is cosigning it then the public will go crazy. I mean lets be real, no one really knew much about Pac either. Its not that different of a situation.

                      Once they heard how great Pac was then they bought the Oscar fight. Now Pac is Oscar and Valero woud be similar to how Pac was at the time. He wouldnt have the great resume but he would have a couple of good wins, 1 great win, and a KO streak like no other. Add the way he looks and when they see him talking ****, that fight would be huge
