    Very much looking forward to this one. Would love Arce to win but he allows himself to get hit too often and has been hurt by lesser punchers. Personally I would be surprised by anything but a KO win for Vic, but I will have my fingers crossed on Jorge.

    This fight would have been so much better a few years ago when they were both at the top of the Flyweight division... but better late than never I guess!

    Should still be a very entertaining fight but I feel that Darchinyan has made improvements since his lost to Donaire & is a much better fighter now with a great little jab, awesome body work, excellent counter punching & still carries that crushing power.

    Whereas I feel Arce has slipped, although he'll be the youger man in the ring he hasn't really improved at all, his struggles with Rojas, the Thai Lookmahanak & then Concepcion make me think he won't be that competitive with Darchinyan.

    I feel Darchinyan is gonna be catching Arce all night with hooks & busting up Arces body before finishing things off!

    Vic in Round 5, like others have said Arce takes too many punches, & I think that he will catch one too many flush & it will be over. I'll be backin Arce though

    You gotta be kidding me VD? Arce ain't been the same for years!!! If Tomas Rojas can own him for 5 rounds then I dread to think what Darchinyan will do to him!

    Rojas and Darchinyan fight nothing a like. Rojas style is what gave Arce problems. He was never hurt in that fight. And while I agree Arce is not the fighter he once was his body attack seems to have gotten better. Arce has been ending or turning around most of his fights with body work. Darchinyan and his elbows in the air style make his ribs a bulls eye. Arce will take advantage.

    Arce won't have a chance against Darchinyans counter punching, but Darchinyan also goes to the body well!!! Arce's liver is gonna be raw!!!

    Don't blink !
    I have been a harsh critic of Vic for years but he has changed since the Donaire defeat, gone is the crab like stance and awkward delivery of punches.
    His wins over both Kirolov and Mijares were very impressive.
    He can wack and is without doubt the hardest hitter Arce has ever faced.
    I think Arce is made for Vic, he will walk up to him and stand right in front of him and then wammo he will get hit and we all know Arce gets hit easily.
    For Arce to win he has to get in early and assert himself with some solid shots and force Vic into a rethink on game plan, but in his last two fights with Kirolov and Mijares Vic just bullied them. Vic is still not pretty to watch but he is effective and this will be a great fight while it lasts and i think it won't last long! Vic KO 5

    Darchinyan has never faced a fighter as big and as strong as Arce. His biggest wins are all against fighters who can't punch. That's not a coincidence. It's by choice. Darchinyan chin is weak. There taking the Arce fight now cuz they think Arce is done. While Arce is not the same fighter he once was he still beats Vic. Donaire stopped him with one punch. And he's a modest hitter. Z Gorres is an even weaker than hitter than Donaire. And he dropped and hurt Darchinyan. What you think is going to happen when Arce lands flush? And he will land.

    I hope you're right VD, but I think the wars will catch up with Arce in this one. Remember after the Rojas fight he said he didn't want to fight southpaws anymore. They don't come much more awkward than Vic. I can't see Jorge pulling this out, but for his pride, and just to shut Vic up, I hope he does.

    Man I thought you knew a thing or two about the game VD but I guess like your pick on Arce I was way off!!!

    Arce started at 105 the size difference ain't sh*t!

    Like Bzkfn said Arce didn't want no southpaws & look how he's looked against them!!!

    Wins over a shot Alvarez & Makepula don't prepare you for Darchinyan!

    Did you see what Mijares done to Arce's face? He didn't even touch Vic!

    I've already got the headlines for Sundays paper & the news is all bad for Arce!

    The southpaws Arce has fought, fight nothing like Darchinyan. There movers. Darchinyan ain't no mover. Darchinyan has always gone into a fight knowing he's the stronger fighter. That's not the case this time. Arce unlike other Darchinyan opponents can punch. Arce also has the bigger heart. He's been hurt and has come back to win a fight. Darchinyan has never shown he can come back from adversity. Arce is the wrong fighter to try for the first fight.
