Comments Thread For: Bradley-Valero: Possible June Fight in Mexico?

[Sweet Jesus]

He has faced better opposition then Valero for sure

But people on here creaming over him like he has beaten down some elite fighters. His resume is very solid i just find it funny people acting like he could hang with Pac or Mayweather at this stage.

You're saying people are creaming over Bradley? Have you looked at Boxing Scene over the last 3 days?

How dare you even bring up Bradley's resume when comparing him to Valero.

Just stop child.

It wont happen

To be quite honest I will be extremely suprised if Arum let this fight happen. Arum selects his fights for his fighters very carefully. Except when he wants to throw them away like yesterday's garbage.

He will began to build Valero's crediability up. Making him look like another Pacman. He probably let them fight b.c they both under his promotion. Either way he makes money and the fighter that wins is easier to promote. I doubt he give Valero a dangerous fight like this so no one gets there hopes up until contract is SIGNED.

Ive seen 3 full Valero fights now and i now know anyone who thinks he is a one dimensional power puncher is ignorant, they havent seen enough. He is masterful at feinting, has great footwork to find angles and controls range beautifully. He can also take a punch very well, all this on top of 27 out of 27 KO's. Im struggling to pick this fight, it'll be awesome if it happens, ill go with Bradley by decision but im 50/50 really with a Valero KO because ive only seen Bradley once plus some highlights which really isnt enough.

you need to watch more of valeros fights. valero has GREAT FOOTWORK? valeros footwork is below average and kinda crap compared to bradley. valero has a better chin then bradley? WE HAVEN'T EVEN SEEN VALERO IN WITH TOP GUYS. but we have seen him in with almost all below average opponents. bradley has been in against like 5 top dogs already. valero NONE. ALSO LOOK AT THE Vicente Mosquera (who has NO POWER at all) Mosquera knocked valero down and hurt him badly. why doesn't anyone bring this up? BECAUSE U ARE RECENT WAGON FANS that haven't really analyzed valeros fights. Mosquera is in NO WAY shape or form a top guy (and he lacks the power you say bradley lacks) but yet he put valero on dream street.... (when u fight with your hands down even guys

here is the 2nd round of the mosquera valero fight when valero was hurt badly

BRADLEY BY UD

slips too many of the cavemans wild shots

and counters him too effectively all night.

Would be both Bradleys and Valeros biggest fight and PayDay almost worthy of a PPV showcase. Come to think of it, i may watch that PPV as long as its for 25Dollars and not 50Bucks, which is like 4 Euros. Whoever wins this fight will Jump into the PacMan Sweepstakes or possibly fight the winner of Mayweather/Mosely, if Pacquiao is not available. Will be a tough fight for Both men as Bradley is as tecnically sound as they come and the CaveMan Valero is a Beast with underrated Skills. People Know about Valeros KOs, but his Boxing ability and Speed is very impressive and now it looks like he has Heart after taking a nasty gash like he did and still complete the fight. Bradley on the other hand has faced better opposition and has shown to adapt to any style brought before him, and now he Has an Opponent who can not only match his workrate but exceed it. I have to admit that i only see Bradley winning a close a decision against Valero, whereas Valero Can KO Bradley at any time. But Valero will bring out the Best in Bradley, and vise versa, which i think it will lead to a hell of a Fight and i Hope Showtime ponies up some Cash to bring the PUblic a Great Match.

I see this fight happening late this year or early next year. Valero needs a tune up at 140, then a decent test, then if he looks good in both bouts and he's comfortable at 140, he should fight Bradley.

[mrpain81]

Bradley just keep improving, I don't see how Valero can win unless he busts up Bradley on the inside. Pretty hard to do though since Bradley's inside game is becoming one of the best in the game.

Mexicali Mexico would be a perfect spot since it's a Boxing town, plus it's only about an hour and a half from Palm Springs.

i'd like bradley to come as the underdog

but by the way things are going, highly unlikely..

still, i'll be betting on bradley...

[oscar_angels091]

I just wish they'd get rid of that ****** fucking open scoring and that headbutt rule. It's ridiculous.

those are ****** wbc rules...this will be with for the wbo tittle..its not a mexico thing....

For anyone Doubting Valeros Skills really needs to stop watching his Fights and look at his Sparring against Top Notch Fighters. He overwhelms those guys too And his SParring partners are not Ceasar from a Pemex Gas Station. Erik Morales, Urbando Antillon and Jose Armando Santa Cruz as well as some lesser known cats all got in the ring to Spar with The Caveman and got beat up for it. Its just sparring but the skill is there for all to see against top opponents. Lets not Forget Delahoya Kicked Valero out of Camp when he was training for PacMan because the CaveMan was whupping that Ass. I am not downing Bradley at all and respect his abilities, but i cannot understand why people try and Knock Valero, when his record shows his abilities. Name another Fighter that Started out with 27 victories, all by KO, and get Knocked around in forums like this like some third rate JourneyMan. SOmetimes you guys make no sense, but i love you for it anyways.

Great fight. I never expected this fight to ever happen. I'm looking forward to it more than Pac/Clottey. I'm leaning towards Bradley by close decision. Valero just leaves his hands down so much, but he'll still be a handful.
