It's obvious that he was going to do amazing things in his career had it not been cut short. He's a legend and one of my personal favorites.
Wish there was a better way to honor him other than just acouple of sigs
I Miss You Champ, you had nothing left to prove to me

his best win was against Demarco, who wasn't really anybody at the time. the majority of his opponents were tomato cans. i'm not saying he didn't have potential to do big things, but calling him an ATG that early is dumb.
you know how boxing works. we hype mofos to death the Boom! he gets knocked out and is shown to be overrated. his power wouldn't save him against the other elites in the higher weight classes. Marquez wouldve ruined him. 140 division wouldve exposed him.Last edited by Catch~Fade; 11-04-2012, 09:29 PM.

I admit this guy was good but if Demarco is the biggest name on his resume, that doesn't say much. Isn't randal bailey a two division champ, is he a HOF? He made people quit in sparring too. I liked Valero, he was exciting, but Demarco was too green in that fight to judge this guy as an ATG, just my opinion.

being an ATG is based on what you have done.
only young fighters i see having a shot at being an ATG is either Ward or Nonito.

you hear boxers talk about his mythical power all the time
Mikey Garcia :"I've sparred, Pacquiao, Rios, Martinez (MW Champ) but no one hit harder than Valero"
