this is a real test for Valero, lets see if he has boxing skills, cause you can't bully Peterson

WBC lightweight (135 pounds) champion, Edwin Valero, of Venezueala, will rise into the 140 pound division for a June or July bout against once-beaten Lamont Peterson (picutred at far right, with Timothy Bradley) of Washington, D.C., possibly in Florida or Washington, D.C., FanHouse has learned from Bob Arum, CEO of Top Rank Promotions, which handles both fighters..

Where'd this come from? If true, excellent news. Valero will stop him.

Woooo 140 pounds.

One step closer to that "mythical" fantasy fight for Valero...

Why doesn't anyone have a problem with Valero ducking Bradley and fighting a guy Bradley just beat easily?

Iam pretty sure Valero aint ducking anyone, the guy is a beast and will fight anyone. The guy is letting Top Rank make those decisions.

He's just moving up to 140 pounds.

He takes arguably the toughest challenge, in his first fight at 140?
