He's like Morales was. Those Mexicans just love to war and yer, it takes a toll on the body. VD looked so much stronger and sharper last night despite being 4 years older.

I didn't see the Vic fight yet, but he's been slipping for awhile.

Lighter weight fighters, in general, age quicker. That's a lot of pro fights, and Arce has taken a lot of punishment anyway.

i was amazed vic is 4 years older....he looked strong and fast..arce looked weak and slow..not the arce i remember..but he's had a great career

Mijares ruined him. Watch him vs Hussien Hussien and then against Rafeal Conception. He looks totally different. He still had that intensity against Mijares where even though he was never in the fight, he kept coming forward trying to land something. After that fight, he was much slower and never came forward like that again.

makes you wonder if vic ruined Mijares.
I don't know much about the guy he's fighting but apparently the guy was an Olympian.

Ive only seen highlights of that fight. Was Vic punishing Mijares with hard shots all night like he was doing Arce?
