After winning a WBA Super Featherweight Title Eliminator last month, Valero fights tomorrow in Japan against Genaro Trazancos. Trazancos has been stopped in three of his previous four fights (including a 7th round TKO v Jose Miguel Cotto - Miguel Angel Cotto's older brother, I think), and hasn't fought for 9 months.
Valero is keeping busy alright, i reckon he will win in 2 this time Glad he is continuing to fight in Japan, means i well get this fight Well done Edwin.
Seems we were right fellas, Valero's streak is over as he was extended to the second round. I was worried about his stamina as it went past the first but the guy has serious world rated power as he disposed of Trazancos. Valero must surely be looking at a world title shot soon?
Seems like this weekend will be the end of some good streaks. Valero making it to the 2nd round (I cant help feeling a bit disappointed...) and Bute going the distance with Thysse.
Yes i was going to mention that as well, surprised Bute didn't stop Thysse but neither did Jurgen Brahmer recently or Beyer and it took Kessler until 11. Thysse is obviously one tough fella, makes Brian Magee's 10th round TKO over him look all the more impressive.
Shame he didn't carry on that amazing streak. Next up a world title?
Without the medical questions, imagine if this guy was British and fighting on ITV? He'd be an absolute sensation and ratings would be though the roof.
