Another rican will take a knee

Not if Velez makes De Leon quit on his stool first.

Velez is getting rushed and I can't understand it. Salvador Sanchez ll was an easy fight for him and folded as soon as he was hurt. Ponce is not SSll and Velez is no Juanma. This is a big jump in talent considering that Baranza gave Velez fits and his only talent is a solid beard. PDL is fairly sturdy, he took everthing Johnnie Gonzalez dished out, and he hits like a mule. This type of promoting is sink or swim and the Doulorme (excuse the spelling) debacle should have left a bad taste for it. Velez needs to work his way up and not try to skip grades like grammer school.

Vélez seems like a promising fighter but he is not ready for a fight like this. In a year, this could work. Right now, this is premature and he might lose badly.

[PR Boxer]

He either knocks him out in the first two rounds or gets pummeled to death, if he wins he would have impressed me.

[Zopilote]

I agree with the people saying it's too soon for a De Leon fight. PDL will be too much for him atm imo.

[PRBOXINGCOTTO]

Velez will show where he belongs ppl complaining Rican prospects either fall or rise there not protected like babies like other countries and Bhopal is still fighting god dam
