Hungry boxing champ Vic Darchinyan believes he can win a record tally of world title belts by the end of next year.

Vic Darchinyan faces one of the biggest opponents and challenges of his career, with a bantamweight world title unification boxing bout against formidable Panamanian Anselmo Moreno in December.

WBA bantamweight champion Anselmo "Chemito" Moreno (31-1-1, 11KOs) is training hard for his scheduled fight with IBO champion Vic Darchinyan (37-3-1, 27KOs), which is is going to take place on December 3rd at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. The fight will be televised by Showtime as part of a doubleheader with Abner Mares defending his IBF bantamweight title in the main event against Joseph Agbeko.

Eric Morel, the former 112-pound king of the WBA, is livid over the recent announcement by WBA bantamweight champion Anselmo 'Chemito' Moreno of Panama. Morel believed that he was being lined up to face Moreno in November, and he was shocked to learn that Moreno was now defending his title against IBO champ Vic Darchinyan on December 3, with Showtime televising the contest.

According to sources who are close to Anselmo "Chemito" Moreno (31-1-1, 18 KOs), the Panamanian star will make his debut with Golden Boy Promotions on December 3rd at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. Moreno will defend his "super" version of the WBA bantamweight title against IBO champion Vic Darchinyan (37-3-1, 27 KOs). Showtime is going to televise the fight. Moreno's defense will accompany the televised rematch, for the IBF title, between champion Abner Mares and challenger/former champion Joseph Agbeko.
