    Default Darchinyan vs. Mijares. Will Vic Gore the Matador? Official Poll!!!

    Mijares vs. Darchinyan is a fight that requires the full attention of serious boxing fans everywhere when they meet on November 1 in a unification battle. Mijares (35-3-2, 13 KOs) is coming off a third-round destruction of aged Chatchai Sasakul, while Darchinyan (30-1-1, 24 KOs), won his title after knocking out Dimitri “The Baby” Kirilov in the fifth round in August

    If ever there was a Matador vs. Bull fight, this is it. Vic “Raging Bull” Darchinyan is a pressure fighter with bricks in his gloves. However, his "weird" style style can allow a highly skilled foe like Mijares to use fast counters amd sharp uppercuts to exploit at will.

    Mijares last tasted defeat in 2002 and is on a 26-fight undefeated streak. A winner over highly regarded Jorge Arce, he beat Jose Navarro in February and gave a clinic in the process. Exhibiting old school defensive moves that were superb and a punch volume that was off the charts, he schooled the equally busy Navarro whose face looked like a cheese and sausage pizza at the end. In the worse score card I have ever seen, one of the judges had it 108-120 in favor of Navarro (meaning he won every round!). Disgraceful is not the right word to describe this mondo bizarro scoring.

    Vic likely will stalk and try to take Mijares out with his superior power. However, the Mexican will use his tool chest of technical skills to keep "The Raging Bull" at bay.

    I do think Vic’s style is made to order for Mijares thus making this a potentially easy fight and setting up a mega battle with Fernando Montiel. Hell, how can a slow fighter who telegraphs his punches and fights in such an unusual manner beat a slickster like Mijares?

    On the other hand, if Vic can use his jab effectively and avoid bull rushes and over reaching, he has a shot.

    And one thing Vic does have that the Mexican slickster lacks is a punchers chance.

    Mijares will make Darchinyan look like the flawed, one-dimensional fighter that he is. I doubt Mijares will stop him, but he will outpoint him easily.

    Of course Vic has a punchers chance, but Mijares is really gonna be able to capitalize on Darchinyan's awkward stance like noone else has been able to, and when Vic does his bullrushes, he will be met with stiff counters. If Vic can keep his energy late in the fight, he may be able to land something meaningful, but this fight is gonna go rounds.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    I think Mijares will exploit Darchinyan's over reaching and porous balance at every turn...literally. His counter accuracy,mobility and on point uppercut will crack and boil the crab.

    I'm betting the house on Mijares to school Vic.

    Default Hope Mijares SPARKS Darchinyan

    Yep, I'm an Aussie - but I don't care, I hope Mijares sparks Vic and shuts him up.

    He has none of the class or humility I like in my boxers, he gives Donaire no credit at all for kicking his arse, and continues to talk like he is the greatest fighter since Sugar Ray Robinson.

    I'll be breaking out my sombrero on Sunday morning.

    C'mon Cristian!!

    I'm hoping Darchinyan can KO Mijares. Vic might not have any class but he always comes to fight & always looks for that KO.

    Thats his best shot and he is very dangerous But for each awkward bomb he misses I think Mijares can hit him twice. I hope he takes Vic over 12 and then go's heads up with Fernando Montiel......I will pay top dollar to see that one

    Mijares is one of the most technically sound and smartest fighters I've seen. He clearly has a game plan going into a fight, and does not get sidetracked easily. Beyond that, he is loaded with skill.

    Lop-sided victory here is my prediction.

    The Bull said he'll cut the matador in half...

    You know Señores, sometimes the bull wins...

    I've seen only the last fights of Darchinian and Mijares but it looks to me like Mijares wins this fight. I'm looking forward to it though. Who was it on here that said Darchinian's style looks like a vulture approaching a meal?

    I can see this going 2 ways.

    1. The most likely in my mind. Vic will trudge forward throwing bombs, landing rarely and Mijares will box his ears off.

    2. Vic lands a Bomb and Ko's Mijares, or atleast stuns him bad enough to win the rounds he needs for a points win.

    I'm hoping Mijares is as good as i think he is. He should beat Vic unless he gets caught.
