He rose from obscurity to I'd say pretty much close to stardom if people don't look back overnight on that win. Cooney knocking Norton out could be similar........Most people don't pay attention to the lower weights.
Like I stated, if there's a fighter who's more deserving of bandwagon fans please let me know.....because I can't think of one to be honest.

please... dont expect him to give a sound interview after the biggest shock moment of his life.
I assure you as a good friend of VIC, you cannot meet a more humble and classier guy. Just take my word for it on that one bro.
We are talkin about a fighter here with so much courage and self belief, that he simply could not accept that he had been KOd. It will take a bit of time before it sets in on him.
Thanks.

I think Vic wasnt the same fighter after what happened to Burgos. He didnt seem to have the same sort of malice in his punches. Its happened to many great fighters.
Donaire, he performed beautifuly. He didnt back down in the face of Vics power, and he counter-hooked beautifuly all night.
There is an old forumla for boxing:
boxer > puncher
swarmer > boxer
puncher > swarmer
and Donaire proved it true once again.
Vics interview after the fight was just unreal. It really showed the fans what a devestating hook can do to you. No recolection of getting hurt, or getting knocked down. Last thing he remembers is probably being on his feet comming in, then the next thing he knows he is falling into the ropes as the fight is called off...no memeory of being spawled out on the canvas and stumbling
around.
Career wise, this will either be a big rallying point for Vic, or it will be the end of his career.
As I watched the interview, I was struch by the feeling that Vic was in total shock. I think he bought into his own hype.

I disagree, Vic definitely had malice and bad intentions in his punches and you could see it. If anything he surprised a few people with bursts of handspeed he demonstrated imo.
I think the biggest factor tonight was Donaires physical advantages plus his sustained hand speed and initiative. He really wasn't all that of a master boxer tonight, just much faster guy that made it look to some like he was.
Some at press row thought it was a draw up to that point and i wouldn't make a big deal about saying otherwise. That says a lot because I do not and have never liked Vic Darchinyan.

huge upset and full credit to donaire.
im hoping this is a rallying point for vic like the philips fight for kostya. i think he has the tenacity to move forward
i dont think vic had it fully back together in that interview..
although it was disrespectful lets not forget that before the fight donaire was sayin if it had have been him he would have killed burgos.. now thats the pinacle of unsportsmanlike behaviour in my opinion
