    You never know..Valero wasn't a "shot" fighter and he wasn't damaged because of previous fights and he wouldn't do a clottey ( not punching back and keeping his hands of for the whole 12 rounds)..You have no right to speculate something of which you have no knowledge.

      I think it's funny 2 people voted "below average career". What's the average career for a professional boxer? 5 pro fights with a 2-3 record making $200?

        you will never know. i think that valero would put up a much better fight than ricky hatton, miguel cotto, & joshua clottey combined. it would have been one hell of a fight.

            With the right trainer, like Roach. Valero could have been another Pac in the making. true story.

The one big thing that separates both of them & why i dont think valero could have been the next pacman is that he doesnt have a good head above his shoulders. Something was clearly off between the ears. He doesnt have the mental stability & determination it takes to be great for a long period of time.
                yes.....he just could'nt deal with his inner demons, we all have it....but i dont exactly know what was going but if your own family is threatened by you, that a clue youre ****ing up big time.......it was really a waste of god gifted talent............the biggest so far in boxing history imo!

                  he was good but the guy wasnt even a proven fighter yet....were talking about the #1 p4p guy in the game rite now....so yes i can speculate something i no would happen....

                    If Salvador Sanchez is considered an ATG then Edwin Valero should also be considered the same if not more!!!!

                      You act like he didn't spar the best and whip their ass?

                      Pretend it didn't happen, that's cool.

                      Valero was dangerous for anyone.

                      Everyone knew his potential. He battered a lot of good pros in sparring.

                      I don't see why he couldn't do in a real fight.
