Z Gorres vs. Vic set for Feb. 2nd in the Philippines!!!

[CutMeMick]

I love this site but it is a shame that this thread does not get as much attention as it deserves. Gorres is technically sound, reasonable power but his speed and power is dwarved in comparison to Darchinyan. I like both fighters. I doubt Gorres can avoid Vic's shots all night (like VD said) but Gorres has the ability t counter Darchinyan's power, come forward swinging style. i'd say Gorres to win this one by decision after hiiting the canvas. The fact that it is in the Phillipines is a huge bonus for Z to.

Well Sugar_Sh I mean JJS....
I know what you mean, everyday I spend time going thru old pages reading previous threads that don't get any responses. Some of these threads are well thought out threads. I guess sometimes people just overlook them much like we tend to overlook certain boxers.

Anyway.... I agree that the location of the fight will play a role for this fight.

vic will smother gorres....
but gorres having the pinoy fighting heart will weather it!
i say vic winning because of his skills and gorres losing but will gain more followers coz of his heart.

When you say "Vics skills" you mean his looping punches and leaving himself open?
I say this cause IMO that's what Vic lacks the most is skill, he's fought the same way everytime I've seen him. I have yet to see him move in the ring well or out jab an opponent. To me Vic is more of a come forward and try to impose himself on you with his power shots.
I think Gorres is more well rounded then Vic here.

I don't think vic really has real skills (definitly not more thn Gorres), he seems to be just a puncher. Donaire shown thjat he can be hit often and easily.

I'm with 'ya all the way on the skills.

I ran a search and didn't find any news on this so here it is.


The purse bid for the IBF jr. bantamweight eliminator for between Vic Darchinyan and Z Gorres scheduledfor tomorrow (11/20/07) has been canceled. Both sides have agreed that the Gorres' camp will promote the fight onFebruary 2 in the Philippines.


Thoughts?


Jot me down for Gorres by Decision.
