Edwin Valero vs. Antonio DeMarco WBC Lightweight Showdown

Valero vs. DeMarco

Update: Valero wins again when DeMarco side threw their towel. See the video below.

Here’s one fight that you might want to watch prior to the Pinoy Power 3: Donaire vs. Guerrero, the fight between Edwin Valero (26-0-0, 26 KOs) of Venezuela and Antonio DeMarco (23-1-1, 17 KOs) of Mexico on February 6, 2010 (Saturday) at the Arena Monterrey, Mexico. The match is under the WBC (World Boxing Council) lightweight crown.

I find the fight very interesting as the undefeated “bad boy” Edwin Valero got a perfect score of 26-0-0 with 26 KOs and it will surely be a short game if it started with firing punches which usually happens on his every fight. But if the young DeMarco can handle this pressure on early rounds then he might survive the blazing punches of Valero.

SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING under cards, unbeaten, world-ranked Luis Carlos Abregu (28-0, 23 KOs) of Salta, Argentina, will be fighting Richard Gutierrez (24-3, 14 KOs), of Miami, Florida, via Arjona, Colombia, in a 10-round welterweight bout.

Here’s round 9 of the fight where DeMarco gets the beating of his life:
