Joseph Agbeko Stops The "Raging Bull" in His Tracks

[Lacrimosa]

Such a pity... I hope Vic comes back strong!

Those who have seen the fight, can you tell me: was the scoring objective? Did Vic look like pre- or post-Donaire?

At this point i think Vic should defend his jr. BantamW titles till the end of his career and try to get rematch with Nonito...

By Lyle Fitzsimmons - SUNRISE, Fla. – Next time, Vic Darchinyan probably heads west.

The trash-talking Armenian-turned-Australian lost his second fight in as many tries on the east coast of the United States, dropping a unanimous decision to incumbent champion Joseph Agbeko in a failed attempt for the Ghanan fighter’s IBF bantamweight championship before 9,227 fans at the BankAtlantic Center.

Agbeko, making his second defense of a crown he won from Luis Alberto Perez in September 2007, swept the ringside scorecards with counts of 116-111, 114-113 and 114-113 to win a competitive contest that matched a hard-charging, wide-swinging slugger against a more-skilled, straighter-punching boxer.

I predicted a SD for Darchinyan.. Congratulations to Agbeko.. It appears that the best man won on the night...

Hilarious! Well done King Kong! It must be soo embarrasing for darchinyan after all his piss and wind before the fight. They should present him with a framed manuscript of his weigh in interview!

Glad this guy finally got beat. Maybe now I won't have to hear so much about this short crabby shrimp guy. Welterweight is where its at man, its just not natural for men to be so small. 117lbs? Thats how much my arms weigh.

and he thought about fighting pacquiao

lolz, great punchline

[joe strong]

vic should go back down.he had trouble with king kings straight lead right hand(southpaw killer).he was hit cleanly & repeatedly throughout the fight.he pawed with his jab & king kings head movement nulified his power left & when he hit him it didn't phase him.I had it 8-4 & the knockdown was a slip.vic lost clearly.the scores were closer than I thought it should be.

What now *****? See what you get for ducking Nonito

[Talisayen]

As I've said before, Darchinyan is nothing but a great bull****er with a mediocre boxing skills.

[Konchi]

Vic is **** you know he will never stop penetrating his bull**** words !

[MaYaN_SuN]

I always knew Vic was garbage, his only real asset was his size advantage against all those smaller guys. But ****, I wanted to see him in there with Mares sometime soon. Anyways, that was an ugly fight...lol They looked like ****in ******s tryin to swing their arms..
