    I can't wait to see Soto again, he has a couple of really impressive wins lately.

      Ivan Valle, a devastating puncher himself, couldn't dent the chin of Soto who was hit a lot of those looping shots. Soto simply has the more accurate, short heavy punches. Valle looked like a schoolboy being bullied in there, he had that "where are you mom?" look after being downed by a low blow (after being KDd twice already).

        I think he throws straighter punches than Margo, he might have better foot work also but Margo has more power and commits more to his punches.

          I think Valle's a bum!!! I saw him once before, I think it was against Shamir Reyes and I wasn't impressed at all, he spent all night waiting for one big shots, I think Reyes even hurt him on that fight, and Reyes has no power.

            You are correct and K+ to you. Soto is a way better technical fighter than Marg. He sets up his punches and uses the Jab very nicely. Juarez couldnt get around that Jab at all in there fight and that is what really won him that fight cause he used it forcefully and it setup other things.

            Margarito usually just comes forward and throws five to six punch combos at his opponents and uses the Jab as more of a range finder its not as powerfull as it should be. But when a guy decides to trade a little with Marg and stand in front of him that's when they get in trouble cause Margs combos are very strong and every punch he throws in a combo is thrown with power yet very inaccurate. It gets the job done though.

              You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to mic573 again

                Sotto vs Chololo Larios would be interesting.
