Breaking News From Boxingconfidential.com

Golden Boy Lays Groundwork For Joan Guzman-Edwin Valero Unification Battle!


Ricardo Lois
BoxingConfidential.Com EXCLUSIVE REPORT

11/30/2007

Boxingconfidential.com has been informed that Golden Boy Promotions officials are laying the ground work for a possible 130-pound world title unification bout between two undefeated champions, Edwin Valero of Venezuela and Joan Guzman of the Dominican Republic.

This stunning news comes on the heels of Golden Boy's announcement that it will co-promote a Manny Pacquaio-Juan Manuel Marquez WBC 130-pound title bout at the Mandalay Bay Hotel in Las Vegas on March 15. Pacman-Marquez, the rematch between the Pinoy idol and the Mexican, will be the top of an HBO PPV show to be run in conjunction with Bob Arum's Top Rank.

Valero is fighting on a PPV show from Cancun, Mexico, on Dec. 15 which will be co-promoted by Teiken Promotions of Japan and DiBella Entertainment.

The winner of Guzman-Valero is the natural next foe for the Pacman-Marquez survivor.

"Golden Boy believes it can make Guzman, who they co-promote with Sycuan, against Valero. Oscar de la Hoya is very friendly with Akihiko Honda and the Teiken team. It may not be possible to stage this event in America due to Valero's being denied a New York license several years ago. Valero had a brain injury from a motorcycle accident in his native country," the source which did not want to be identified told Boxingconfidential.com.

"Golden Boy is working with serveral concepts on possibly getting Edwin licensed in the U.S.," the source said. "If they can't maybe they will take this blockbuster fight to Mexico, to Venezuela or to the Dominican Republic."

The informed source believes that Valero will easily get licensed almost anywhere outside America.

Stay tuned as this develops. Keep it locked on www.boxingconfidential.com.

I bet you when Guzman hands Valero's 1 dimentional ass a lopsided beatdown...Manny will continue to run from Guzman as he has ALL these years. I dont even think Valero will take this fight...I hope he does.

Name: creek Date: 11/30/2007
this is a very interesting fight. the winner of this fight will be worthy to fight the $$pacman$$.

can guzman avoid valero's strength?

will valero add another 1st KO in his resume?

will guzman run?

will valero chase?

Name: Edwin Guzman Date: 11/30/2007
This fight will be exciting fight, but i believe that Guzman will win by a unanimous boring win. Not unless he fights Valero toe to toe, But i believe He won't. But I also believe Valero will stalk Him and try knocking him out!

My Prediction: Draw

Name: Edwin Guzman Date: 11/30/2007
If the fight becomes draw, Both Fighters will no longer have ticket for Pacman's List. I would like Valero to Win by Knockout but i believe Guzman will Run all night and will win by UD.

I'm sure Valero will chase Guzrun the whole fight!
It's better for Valero to wait his turn to fight Pacman rather than fighting a marathon athlete!

Guzman can win this fight if he goes past Round 1-3 against Valero.
But, I doubt if Guzman can withstand the wild-bangin Valero.

Valero is unpredictable, and with Guzman's style who doesn't engage that much and mostly wins by decision, Valero will strike and whack him in the early round, and most likely in the first round.

Valero's camp will know for sure, that if the fight goes down the stretch, it will be decision win for Guzman...

Valero's camp knows that Guzman is too slick, too fast, too slippery...

So, they will impose will the earliest rounds and go for an immediate knock-out...

This fight will go either way. But, I chose Valero...by KO...in any of the rounds....

Not a bad match for Boxing after Dark because both
boxers have a small fan base and not PPV worthy .
Now if they put on a good show in which boxing fans
are willing to pay the 50 bucks for PPV then they
may have a chance to fight Pacman or Marquez .We have to wait and see Make it happen ODLH

Round 2!!!

its a classic match between class B boxer and the winner will be promoted to class A, to meet the Pacman..
Valero will KO Guzman inside 5 rounds, or Guzman will win by UD by running and slapping punches

Really? This make a lot of sense. Everyboxer should pay their dues before making the big bucks. You can't expect to get $500,000
fighting 22 tricycle drivers in a very short time!
I'd rather see Valero Fight 3 or 4 fighters in the top ten of the world rankings before Pacman.

How about Soto after Guzman? or maybe Bobby Pacquiao then Soto? He can also fight Marquez if Marquez losses against Pacman this time. Just my thoughts.

Open Letter to Mr.Valero: Please Edwin fight Guzman and dont duck him like Ms.Pacman has all these years. I know what you are thinking "Guzman will give me a boxing lesson and give me more combos than a Chinese menu." but look at the bright side you can always say you got beat by the best p4p @130. Besides that funny hairstyle...you have nothing to be ashamed of. You will only have lost to the most avoided fighter in the division...Joan Guz. I know you feel like a circus freak because of the way the U.S. has treated your little brain injury but you never know...The Guzman Boxing Clinic has been known to cure "The One Dimentia" you are suffering from..at the end you will loose but will become a better person from it.

Name: Fuck Date: 11/30/2007
Cremster a mexican guy whose hiding behind Guzrun.. You cannot accept the Facts that no one mexican can Beat Pacman at 130-135. See This Pac-barrera I, Barrera is in his Prime but he kiss the canvass,he (Barrera) beat a lot good figthers after that terible lose. Pac-Teribble Trilogy, Terible is at 28-29 years old and pacman at 27, Com`on how could you say that theyre old? Excuses again???????????? and if you insist Guzrun, will Pacman Prove himself a lot before Figthing Top Fighters at 130. maybe if he can Beat Valero, maybe he has a 10% bid to Pacman... no excuses..... Understand????????

Name: Fuck Date: 11/30/2007
Cremster, JMM is old? but if Pacman Refuses to Fight.. he is coward again and avoiding JMM, if he Fights, Pacman Fights only Old Boxers.. Com`on Poor Pacman.. ahhh Because Hes The Best and good Fighter...

Name: Big Huevos Date: 11/30/2007
Fuck,

What makes Cremster a Mexican? Just cause he's not on Manny's nuts, that automatically makes him a Mexican? Shut the fuck up man!
If you really believe no Mexican at 135 can't beat Manny then you are another dumb ass who is on Manny's bandwagon.

It's true... Manny has been avoiding Guzman since 122. Do you even watch boxing at all? Or do you only watch boxing when Manny is fighting?

If Manny would've fight Morales at the right weight (not 140) Morales would've kicked his ass again.... and even some Pinoys have said this. And i'm talking about Pinoys who really know their shit, not like some of these 13 yr kids.

Name: Big Huevos Date: 11/30/2007
Another thing.....

Do you even know a boxers age? Honestly... I'm talking about a 21-30 yr old boxer from a regular 21-30 yr old?
Morales and Barrera were in BRAWLS my friend... B-R-A-W-L-S! Something Manny is barely starting. That's why people love him (Manny) He's the new Morales & Barrera! IMO.

Those 2 men were having brawls way before they fought Manny. It takes a lot from them. Ask El Feroz! Do you even know who he is?

Im sure Manny will do good/great for 3 more years and then he'll be like Morales & Barreras and eventually fade. He'll lose to a young fighter and then we'll see what you have to say....



It's the nature of the sport man! People come and go... sadly.

Name: BoxFan Date: 11/30/2007
Geez a lot of retards here! Manny can't fight everyone who wants to fight him all at the same time! After being given the opportunity to fight the superbantam weight champion Ledwaba after only a few days notice as a replacement, he has fought fighters that qualified him to fight the highly regarded "Barrera." After Barrera, he went on to fight highly respected fighters. There was no let up! BOTTOM LINE: He is not superman who can fight more than 10 people at the same time. Give credit where credit is due! Do not be blind!---- When deciding for the next fight... when he decided that he would fight Marquez, people say that he is fighting a washed up fighter, if he decided that he wanted to fight Diaz, Guzman, Valero et al people would say that he is running away from Marquez. So regardless of who he decides to fight, people would say something. Because he has the upper hand now, you guys calling him Pacquita! For now, I think the most logical fight is indeed a fight with Marquez! Guys... just one at a time!

Big Huevos, B-R-A-W-L? Maybe the hardest Brawl they Fought is Manny Thats why they ended there Career, So which Means JMM do not experience BRaWL at all cause his at 33 years old right now.. You right age is matter at Boxing but not excuses, Pac-Terible I, terible has all the credits that seems he is at his Peak, when got knockout he is old.. JAJAJAJAJAJA, Morales has 4 rounds in Fight 2, maybe if he wins he still at hi Peak right now sad but true, Remember again after Barrera Lose to Pac he beats a lot of Great boxers including Terible.. how could you say Theyre old? EXCUSE ME? EXCUSESSSS?????

Name: fuck Date: 11/30/2007
13yr old kid Big Huevos? like you? hiding your ice cream from another kid? Making excuses? Will i know PAC has big problem with GUZRUN, well the Fact is Guzrun is Good, has talent maybe PAC will Lose because GUZRUN is Good and not PAC is Old and vice versa.. see i`m giving you my ice cream?? Maybe your only a big fun of boxing but not in the boxing..

Name: Fuck Date: 11/30/2007
Now Big Huevos Terible is not old, only if Pac fought him in 140???? Another Excuses? Terible not Suffer in Weight preparation for David Diaz his 40LBS above when he fought the Older david? Now What???

Name: Fuck Date: 11/30/2007
Look Big Huevos, How JMM disperatelly accept the Crack of pie now just to have the fight.. he learn before from avoiding Pacman and goes to a droplets of 30k purse with Chris John.. his begging for Money from Manny you know that? i know JMM is Old for you but Most of them will discredit Pac as Coward if he Chooses David Diaz. See if you are PAC what would you do????

Name: jigx Date: 11/30/2007
GBP is running out of talents from the 130 lbs division. He's definitely not leaving the lower weight class to Top Rank - Bob is gonna jump like monkey.. If PAC wins against JMM on March 15, Golden Boy has valero or guzman to take over 130lbs division..

Name: colt45 Date: 11/30/2007

ur right Big Huevos. I agree with u man.

I like Barrera before Pac came to the limelight. I was happy when Pac got a chance to fight Barrera. I was one of those fans who prayed for Pac though to win. All I could say was, thanx to the Great Barrera.

But, I have great respect to your Great Warrior Morales. He is a Sportsman.

But, I will remain a Pac Fan...Win or Lose...I'm a Pac Fan since Manny was still fighting at age 16...

I appreciate these guys because I am not only there Fan, but because, I am a Boxing Fan...

I have been watching Boxing and a Fan of this Sport (since 9years old)...

Name: bolitz Date: 11/30/2007
You're are right FUCK,All the events point to pacman as the best at 130lbs and all other fighters wants to fight him because of recognation and most of all money.Its terrible in this site there are many who dont accept that the pacman retires their hero. They should see it as one looking a fishbowl,the difference in heart and fighting style,thats why i love to watch manny.No boring fight,no run not like Guzrun,PBF and other boxer who are train like chinese made boxing doll.You are right,MAB and El Terrible are great boxers and in their peak form before Pacman demolished them and now the last mexican man standing JMM will try to catch up because he has no time left to be called great or legendary but by engaging to manny.Even if got a peanut,no matter whats important is the endpoint the chance to upset manny and be called great.I dislike the way SMALL Huevas,COLT 25 andPaquita be brave enough to accept the truth that our guy is on top just like accept MAB and EL terrible when they are champion. Sore Lossers you are. Kawawa!Asan Ka pa!

Name: bolitz Date: 11/30/2007
To cremster!I know you are big fan or PRO of Guzrun . Please tell guzrun to fight toe to toe until the bell ends.Nobody will pay a PPV just to see you running,on and off style.If you think you boxer is strong and the most avoided 130lbs fighter then fight as a slugger change you trainer.I pick Guzrun to win this fight by UD by running and slapping.LOL!

One thing more Valero is not yet in the level of a refine boxer.He must fight first soto.Bobby,guzrun,juarez if he like but i think he will not.Definitely this guy will look like a punching potato when he fights hardheaters JUAREZ,SOTO or even LARIOS,SOLIS and other good mexican fighers not only wash-up.He has to prove first to other before calling PACMAN.We love to see his face grimacing in pain when he fight the bigboys.

Name: Big Huevos Date: 11/30/2007
Fuck,
By reading your first reply.. I could tell that you're so full of it!
I suggest you re-read my comment(s).
You stated that Morales & Barrera Never had brawls til' they fough Manny? Son, you have no fucking idea what the hell you're talking about! Honestly. That just proved to me that you don't follow the sport.
Second...
Like I said...read all my comments and you will find that I do give Manny credit for beating Barrera or Morales.. good for Manny. But like Cremster say's: Why does that (Beating Morales & Barrera over, Over and OVER again) make him great?
I and A LOT of people don't understand that! It's not hating, it's confusion my friend!
Why even try to explain when you don't have a clue... and for your info....lol.... I was not referring to you as a 13 yr old... RE-READ man! Lol. But then again I guess you are since you took it to heart.
Self-owned!

Bolits,
WTF are you talking about? God damn man. Do you know how to read? Jesus Christ man. How many dumb fucks are here?!?!
The truth about what man? Manny being great? Dude, until he fights Guzman, Valero, or even Barrios... I'll be the first one to bow down to Manny! Manny is like DLH! Chooses his opponent(s) carefully! And you say Guzman & Mayweather "run"....wtf?... Buddy, UFC forum is that way ----->
Calling me, Colt and Pacquita names will not make you look "cool"... just a dumb-ass... but a little too late.

Colt45- This guy (Bolitz) is a moron, you're a Pacman fan and he didn't read that?
This site gets better and better everyday! Good seeing an O.G like yourself still here! I know you been here for a long while! Aren't you Pinoy as well Colt45?

Name: Big Huevos Date: 11/30/2007
Colt45,

No shit man? At 9 yrs old? Shit, I got into boxing cause of Julio Cesar Chavez! I think I was like 14 man.
I remember when he first lost.. I couldn't believe it man! I was all like bullshit, it's a fucking joke..lol. But sadly after that loss he was fading little by little.
But still love the man! I give him all my props and respect.
Same goes for Fernando Vargas and Erik Morales! Not a BIG fan of Barrera, but I do respect him. Loved him when he beat The Prince! What a fight.
I remember when MAB fought Pacman for the first time...
I was all like "who's this guy" (Manny) He's gonna lose..but Pacman ended up shocking everyone that night! I was like WTF....LMAO. what a night. I give no excuses for MAB! He lost fair! Fuck Personal problems.

Manny just needs to be like Morales and Barrera and step up! Fuck Arum making his choices! Fuck Money too... but im sure everyone is all about the cheddar now! So I think its bullshit what Arum is saying and doing! Making sorry excuses not to fight Guzman? Pfft!
I don't know who'll win. I think Guzman UD. He still has a lot in him. He hasn't fought anybody with a lot of caliber that has taken much from him. Manny, I think with the Morales trilogy... took a lot! So don't know man... it's a 50/50 thing here, but I still think J.G will take it. We'll just see what happens. That's if Manny gives him a chance?
When/if the day comes... we'll bet on this Colt! I know you're a big Pac fan.
im sure ill be a big fan of his one day... well... when he fights Guzman.

You are not pacman and absolutely you will not be because you hit a man who beat your heroes.LOL!Definitely you make it a day as a boxing fan but you must be true to yourself dont hide under the skirt of guzrun trumpeting him to be strong and wily fighter ,well infact,not yet fight the other 130 pounder in that division.Test the water man,tell your friend JG of how hard to pass that very special zone before you can call the PACMAN.understand? The pacman is on top of the heap he can choose whom he can.That's a privilidge of fighting hard not like your fighting chicken who wants to jump over the fence just to collar the big bucks.That's shit you must understand that moron.The Pacman had leverage to negotiate not Guzrun and others.You must know history and boxing politics before you blurt bubbles in your big mouth. Again,if ever the fight between PAC and JG materialize i challenge you and your idol to fight toe to toe and im sure he will not last 2RDs.game!You mexicano's dont know how to behave and praise others not your skin.yuck!

Oh Boy! That nation M of Great people dont accept the FACT that a Filipino rules the 130Lbs and became a PPV Superstar. A pity on them for they rule that division for a long time.They dont accept that their are other nation who is very competitive very brave as they are.After PAC vs Marquez II maybe its good match up to choose between Guzman or Valero to fight the winner of PAC vs MARQUEZ.If the price is right!

interesting match. a slugger and a boxer/runner. cat and mouse anyone? cab drivers not included. kudos to JMM & Pacman for their coming bout. the winner of valero-guzman gets bigger fights and purses in the future. i hope pacman can maintain his status for the good of the sport.

What is This Big Huevos (Malaki Itlog) Como Chingas??

If Manny would've fight Morales at the right weight (not 140) Morales would've kicked his ass again.... and even some Pinoys have said this. And i'm talking about Pinoys who really know their shit, not like some of these 13 yr kids.

enough Pacman for a while. this is a very, very good idea. finally a match-up for the ages. a slick boxer and a power puncher, let's see whose style makes the difference. but hey, my favorite here to win the fight is valero. the difference between guzman's opponents and valero is that they don't possess the capabality in knocking out their foes, while valero on the other hand proved it so many times ago that he is the tragic ending for his opponent. i think that even if guzman uses his mayweather-like slickness, one wrong move towards el inca will result into an early knockout loss for him.
