Jorge Arce plans retirement... ring warrior's best performance?

I have followed Arce throughout his illustrious career. He has been in with Hall of Famers, tested pugilists, and big bangers. Jorge Arce is the epitome of what a "fighting mentality" is for the sport I love.

Looking back on the brash lollipop licking, Harley riding, pint-sized punching machine... Arce was NEVER afraid of any challenge, and used his relentless pressure to break down opponents (and the occasional come from behind body shot!). I just wanted to know what you thought his best performance was? And when was his peak in his career?


Jorge Arce plans retirement after 2010

TS,

do you think jorge arce will some day be inducted in the boxing HOF? i certainly do.

For me the fight that will always stick out for me and the one that made me an Arce fan was his first fight with Hussein Hussein on the undercard of Pac-Morales I. That was a sensational fight and maybe even better then the main event, Arce was like something straight out of hell in that one.

For me it was his destruction of Alvarez

That was the first one that came to mind.

Gotta be the fights with Hussein Hussein for me. The first was the better fight, but in the second he looked so much more dominant than he even had first time out.

The first Hussein Hussein fight for me. It was tough, but he stuck to it and stopped him. Awesome performance.

Well I'm there with the majority of you guys, and I'll have to go with his fight against Hussein Hussein.

That fight looked to steal the honors of fight of the night, but then Morales and Pac stepped into the ring, and changed all that.

#1 Did any of you see Arce-Carbajal when Arce was 19 or so? I read on boxrec that he was well ahead at the time of stoppage. I guess this fight doesn't really "count" since it was ultimately Carbajal's last fight. But pretty amazing that he has had the opportunity to mix it up with some real HOFers.

#2 I think Arce definitely has a place in the Hall of Fame.

#3 Arce's body shot to Alvarez ribs made me cringe as bad as Gatti Ward Rd9.

I have always been a fan of Arce,,,Win or lose he has come to fight and he has always been exciting....I will miss him when he is retired...As for his best performance I gop with the crowd on the Hussein fight but TBH all of them have been great to watch....Little man with a big mans heart....

Arce will be HOF bound for sure...2 time world champion with almost 60 fights under his credit...can not see why he wouldn't

He was dominant in the second fight because it was clear he was in Hussein's head and once the fight reverted back to the form of the last one, Hussein had already checked out.
