Update on Darchinyan.

Post by Tinnie »

Just got home from the Parra game where Vic did an interview for the crowd before the match. Not sure if it was broadcast on tele so i thought i'd give you guys the gist of it.

When asked about his future and next opponent, he basically said that he wasnt 100% sure who his next opponent is, but he was looking to move up a division again and looking to fight for a belt.

Very happy to see that Darch is ready to push forward again, i think you'd be hard pressed finding an active guy more commited to cementing his legacy.

:box:

Anyone have an idea who he might be targeting? I seem to remember him mentioning Montiel at one stage, but that was quite a long time ago now.

I don't know so correct me if I'm wrong - the 'pushing foward' bit is that a smokescreen for I'm getting on a bit and find it hard to make the weight?

He did an interview on foxsports news a day or so ago and said if he couldnt get Donaire he would move fwd including up weight divisions (plural). I dont know about this, we saw what Agbeko did to him........

Two judges gave the fight to Agbeko by a point. Agbeko has since lost his title to Yonnhy Perez.

Who knows how American promoters work things out? When Jeff Fenech fought a draw with Azumah Nelson , both Nelson and Fenech were reigning World Champions. The main event was Mike Tyson -v- Donovan Ruddock. Ruddock had never held a world title and Tyson had lost his (with his mouth guard) to Buster Douglas the previous year.
