IBF super flyweight champion Vic Darchinyan is confident he will knock out WBA/WBC super flyweight champion Cristian Mijares when they do battle on November 1st at the Home Depot Centre in Carson, California. "I promise I will knock him out," Darchinyan said. "I've said that many times before big fights, [Luis] Maldonado, Irene Pacheco, [Dimitri] Kirilov - I knocked them out. When I promise I will knock someone out, I keep my promise."
Darchinyan continued, "Of course it was my dream to become undisputed champion. I'm not saying if I win, I'm saying when I win this fight - after that, I will become one of the greatest fighters from Australia. I love that idea, and I want to become one of the greatest fighters in the history of boxing. [Mijares] is a smart fighter, a good fighter, but when I catch him with my punch, it won't be like in his other fights." Darchinyan is managed by Elias Nasser and lives in Sydney, Australia. He represented Armenia at the Sydney 2000 Olympics and turned professional under the guidance of Hall of Famer Jeff Fenech. He captured the IBF flyweight title by defeatiing Irene Pacheco and lost it to Nonito Donaire.
