This will be an entertaining fight. Both fighters love to bang. Darchinyan is more explosive, however, has the weaker chin.

Arce is an up and down fighter, if he can get past the first 5 rounds its anyones fight.

Regarding whites gaining a foothold at the lower weights Darchinyan victory could establish a foothold. Him along with Hatton will be the only white fighter who are champs below 147 lbs.

Man, this Darchinyan looks like a cousin of Freddie Crugar

The cousin of Crugar wins! Darchinyan was too strong and too skillful for the smaller Arce to deal with. They stopped the fight prior to the 12th round. Doctor stopped it. Arce had his moments in the early rounds but just was big enough nor had the power to change the flow of the fight.

Good win for Darc! Slowly but surely the white fighters are gaining a strong hold

Dominant performance by Vic

He should definitely be in Ring Magazines top 10 pound for pound list.

Also another white fighter below 147 successfully defended his title for the 15th time. Omar Narvaez from Argentina defeated the previously undefeated American Rayonta Whitfield by TKO. Narvaez I believe is of Spanish descent like a lot of Argentinians.

Here's a picture of him

He has good amateur wins over the likes of Steve Molitor and Joan Guzman.

Arce sure showed he can take a punch. The both showed that the little guys can put on a heck of a fight.

Darchinyan should try to get back in with Donaire now.

too bad vodapnov,selimov,lomochenko and tischenko wont turn pro, they would change the history of boxing and end the latino dominance from flyweight to lightweight.
