On the morning of April 19, an autopsy had confirmed the report of the CICPC (Office of Scientific, Penal and Criminal Investigations) of Carabobo, stating that Valero's death was a suicide.

The selfish part of me says, "If only..." the moral part of me says, "Good riddance." The man was a ferocious animal in the ring and a ferocious animal out of the ring. The unstable temperament and unbridled aggression that took him to 27KOs in 27 wins, also contributed to the breakdown of his family, the death of his wife and the death of himself. The dude simply couldn't switch it off.
Sad, sad, case all round.Comment

valero is a turd!
May he rot in hell...He beat his mom, sister and killed his wife! He was an ok fighter with limited skills, a lot of heart but was a lowlife! Good riddance if you ask me. The man had the world at his feet, a country who loved him and a nice looking wife and he blew it!Comment
