Jorge Arce Ready for Mijares and with Darchinyan on His Mind

Jorge Arce Ready for Mijares and with Darchinyan on His Mind Jorge Arce spoke with Boxing Confidential a few minutes before he was to present himself at a San Antonio, Texas press conference to announce his April 14 battle with WBC super flyweight champion Cristian Mijares. The bout is the main support for Manny Pacquiao’s pay per view return against Jorge Solis. As always, the charismatic Arce was not short on words and had a very special message for Vic Darchinyan! RL: Are you ready for Mijares? JA: I ready to beat him down like I did my last opponent. RL: He is the champion, but has been acting like a challenger. He has called you out all over the media and followed you to your last fight in Anaheim. JA: I am glad he is talking and chasing me, most of my opponents do not do any of that, I love the attention. If he even knows how to count, Mijares can start to count the days to April 14, because he is going to get his dream of fighting me. What he does not know is that it will be a nightmare for him. RL: You’re a star in Mexico, no doubt, but fans in the United States are just starting to get to know you. How does it feel to have an opportunity to fight on Manny Pacquiao’s card, with the world watching? JA: I feel blessed and I am super happy with Top Rank. This is a great fight for me, and the fans. Anytime two Mexicans get in the ring it is a war. Look at what happened last week with Rafael Marquez and Israel Vazquez. Mijares and myself will produce a war. RL: Vic Darchinyan is another fighter who has been calling you out in the media. Any special words for him? VD: Make sure you get this down. Vic, I will be happy to fight you in Sydney, Australia with your family as the judges. Nothing can save you from the beating I am going to give you. Running your mouth is easy, tell your promoter to send Bob Arum an offer, I am not hard to find. Talk is cheap and I doubt that you can back it up. I will be very happy to fight you, like I said, even in Sydney!

Mijares is going to win I have seen Mijares last 4 fights and he is much faster than Arce, he moves all over the ring and Arce has a problem with fighters that move around, he need a still target. Mijares might not KO Arce but he will definetly beat him by points. People dont know mijares and thats why they have lower in points.

Nice words from Arce - lets hope he backs it up and accepts the fight. In my opinion Vic is only fighting with low hands because the other guy didn't earn his respect inside the ring and Vic could smell fear. i don't think we'll see that if he takes on Arce.

he is as tough as they come bro. This was actually a wake up call for VIC and boost cuz know HE KNOWS how deadly his power is. He feels its the corners fault for not steppin in earlier knowing Burgos was wayy down on the cards and eating some solid punches to the temple. He really has no reason to feel bad, all he wants is for Burgos to get better (which he is slowly doing) and to train and fight again. but what if burgos dies? i hope that doesnt happen and i hope leavander johnson is the last boxer to die in the hands of another boxer coz as violent as boxing is i dont what another taint in this sport that i truly love..

Vic was backing away when burgos threw punches eventhough burgos look like a child in that ring...Arce would easily ko vic...I doubt that vic's promoters will submit an offer...they know they have a paper champion and they don't want to lose their meal ticket...that is what happen with hussein hussein...No arab can beat a mexican.. Vic is nothing like hussein. There is no comparison AT all accept the fact that they both reside in Australia. There is also no chance Vic will back away from a chance to fight Arce. This is the fight he has wanted for such a long time and when he gets it he will take the oppertunity by the throat. My Prediction would be Vic by ko/tko within the first 5 rounds. With his in-out all punching style, i think he will catch Arce coming in and stop him in his tracks

Arce will be Vic's toughest opponent as of yet. Dont count him out. The Mexican Cowboy is a superior technical boxer and Vic's sloppiness will allow openings for Arce's pinpoint jab and power shots. The difference in this fight is Vics power. If Arce can handle Vic's power then it will be dec win or possibly a TKO for him. IF he cant...Vic will KO him like he does everybody else in front of him. I am thirsting for this fight.

Arce actually said he wanted to fight Vic after knocking out Makepula. This is going to be a great war. I see both fighters on the floor with Arce by UD because he never stops punching and Vic waits for openings.

but what would happen to vic? have you talk to him since winning the figth against burgos.. that would hurt him mentally and translate into a bad showing in his next fight unless hes mentally tough..what cha think? he is as tough as they come bro. This was actually a wake up call for VIC and boost cuz know HE KNOWS how deadly his power is.
