    Harrowing story of undefeated boxer who ‘lost his mind’ after drugs binge before ‘murdering wife’ and committing suicide

    IT appeared Edwin Valero had the world at his feet as an undefeated champion with a beautiful wife and two children. But outside the ring he was battling a fight against drug addiction which would ultimately cost him his life.Edwin Valero had 27 wins all by KOCredit: AFPEdwin Valero pictured with wife JenniferBut he led a dark life in privateCredit: ReutersValero committed suicide in 2010Credit: AFPWBC president Mauricio Sulaiman told SunSport: “He had unbelievably heavy hands. “Very unfortunately his life ended in tragedy, in controversy, but what happened inside the ring was tremendous by him. “Valero grew up in Merida, Venezuela and began boxing at 12 in a bid to combat the anger that raged inside of him. He had an 86-6 amateur record with 57 knockouts, winning national titles three years in a row before turning professional in 2002. READ MORE IN BOXINGValero broke the record by winning his first 18 fights all by KO in a display of power never-before-seen. He was also becoming somewhat of a myth behind-the-scenes in boxing gyms, regularly KOing sparring partners in chilling fashion. By 20 bouts, Valero was WBA super-featherweight champion and later won the WBC belt in 2009. WBC boss Sulaiman – his father Jose in charge at the time – befriended Valero on the boxer’s rise to stardom. Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITSSulaiman told SunSport: “He was very nice, very quiet. He had a great charisma, macho type, but he was a family man.” Valero shared son Edwin Antonio and Jennifer Roselyne with wife Jennifer.Mike Tyson doesn’t hesitate when revealing heavyweight who would have beaten him Heading into the late 2000s and Valero was making huge waves in the sport, linked with massive fights against the likes of Manny Pacquiao.But he also led a secret life of drink and drugs, which caused a strain on his relationship. In 2010, Valero was accused of assault after his wife was hospitalised with bruises and a damaged lung. The feared fighter denied wrongdoing – while wife Jennifer told cops she hurt herself falling down stairs. Valero’s troubles outside the ring also included being denied a 2009 fight on Pacquaio’s undercard after his visa was rejected due to a DUI in Texas. The boxer continued to KO opponents around the world, from America, Asia and Mexico. But he would celebrate with drug binges back home in Venezuela – something that would have fatal consequences. Valero was one of boxing’s hardest hittersCredit: AFPHe knocked out every one of his opponentsCredit: GettyHe was world champion in two weightsCredit: AFPSulaiman said: “The sky was the limit for Valero because he was young and talented and powerful. “Very unfortunately, he experienced the evil of cocaine. In just a short period of time, he lost his mind.” Valero’s final fight was against Antonio DeMarco in February 2010 in Mexico – he won via ninth-round KO and retained his WBC lightweight title.But just two months later and he was dead alongside his wife.Sulaiman said: “After his fight in Mexico – he fought in Monterrey, Mexico – he flew back to Venezuela and some people introduced him to cocaine and he had a horrible week.”We were contacted by his family and friends and my father was a couple of days away from getting a humanitarian visa so that he could travel to a rehab facility in the United States.”And there was also one in Cuba that was ready to receive him. And unfortunately, history turned that way and it didn’t happen.” Valero’s 24-year-old wife was found stabbed to death on April 18, 2010.

Valero was discovered hanging in his jail cell just a day after his arrest – committing suicide only 24 hours after allegedly killing his wife. Reports in Venezuela claimed Valero admitted to hotel security and police that he had murdered his wife.Jennifer’s family accused Valero of being a violent, drug-addicted bully who stopped eating or sleeping before taking it out on his wife.Sulaiman and his dad saw Valero and his family dining out after his last fight – unaware of the horrors that would follow. He said: “I never could have believed what happened.Very unfortunately his life ended in tragedy, in controversy but what happened inside the ring was tremendous by him. WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman”I was completely shocked. Heartbroken in disbelief because he was a real good friend.” “He was a very dear, fighter, dear friend. And it’s just a tragedy.” Both Valero and his wife had public burials in Venezuela.Their kids were taken in by Jennifer Carolina’s sister and their daughter later took up amateur boxing in her father’s honour. A 2016 film titled El Inca – Valero’s boxing nickname – was selected as Venezuelia’s entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the Oscars.Valero’s brother-in-law – Jennifer’s brother Yoel Finol – also became a boxer and represented Venezuelan at the 2016 Olympics.

    A house of fury & the truth about Lauryn Goodman’s move… what’s really next for Annie & Kyle after THOSE pics?

    FOR a man who fathered two children with his ex-mistress, enjoyed a covid-busting orgy with hookers, exposed himself in a bar and romped with a reality star in his Bentley, this is by no means a disaster for Kyle Walker.So what if he was pictured leaving an Italian hotel with two women late at night before heading off to a nightclub – merely hours after playing happy families with his estranged wife and four kids on a shopping trip?Love rat Kyle Walker got touchy-feely with Annie lookalikes at a hotel bar and club until around 2amCredit: BackGridHe treated the pair to £5,300 Super VIP extravagance at the Italian city’s star-studded Tocqueville 13Credit: BackGridAn onlooker said: ‘The women looked at ease in Kyle’s company, sticking close by his side’Credit: BackGridHe’s done far worse, surely. And yet, that’s the problem, isn’t it? He has set the bar so low that being photographed with two women leaving a hotel and heading to a nightspot is unlikely to cause him a sleepless night in the grand scheme of misdemeanours.But what about Annie?Those close to the couple have been at pains in recent weeks to stress that they are in the best place they’ve ever been since the scandal involving his former lover Lauryn Goodman erupted long over a year ago.In public, his representatives insist that the pictures taken outside the Casa Cipriani hotel are entirely innocent and there is no reason to believe otherwise. In private, they will be tearing their hair out that he could have put himself in this position, yet again.Sources tell me he flew home at the weekend (he’s currently injured) to collect more of his belongings to fill his £10,000-a-month apartment in Milan which is now ready for him to move into.He jetted back before the images of his latest night out emerged – no doubt thankful of the timing.FINAL NAILS IN COFFINBut whilst Casa Walker will be filled with fury today, those who advise him will also feel a twinge of exasperation. They had repeatedly warned him to behave from the moment he touched down.It was a near daily mantra for the England full-back. He was desperate for breathing space to gather himself away from the prying eyes of the British tabloid media.Man City star Kyle Walker confesses to betraying ‘soulmate & best friend’ Annie Kilner in astonishingly honest interviewBut far from using it to reflect, he appears intent on adding a few more final nails to the coffin for good measure. The images, however innocent they may be, will undoubtedly upset Annie.Sure, she’ll have been far angrier in the past, and with good reason. But it’s the lack of thought for her feelings that will sting most.He must have known how it would look just 24 hours after Annie and the kids made a flying visit to Italy? The images, however innocent they may be, will undoubtedly upset AnnieCredit: BackGridAnnie was pictured without her wedding ring this weekCredit: Eamonn and James ClarkeLauryn’s proposed move to Italy appears to be off – despite posing next to a removal truckCredit: BackGridOne source said: “He doesn’t care. It’s as though he is deliberately sabotaging any hopes they have of staying together. “And nothing is going to change. The bar has now been set at baby. If that can’t end their marriage then being pictured with two women outside a hotel isn’t going to cause any problems for him.”It’ll be put down to Kyle being Kyle. It’s what he does. It’ll anger Annie without a doubt, but he’s been doing this to her for years and it’s now an accepted part of their relationship.”They’re up and down. It changes from week to week. But the chances are this is going to be a bad week.”But they will no doubt take some comfort from the fact that Lauryn’s proposed move to Italy appears to be off. After vowing to emigrate to Italy to be closer to the £150,000-a-week footballer – whilst posing next to a removals truck with her worldly goods on the back – she remains in Blighty.
