Jorge Arce appreciation thread

[any craic lad?]

Bravo Arce man i taught as the fight wore on Vazquez would get stronger and Arce's wear and tear would show but fair play to him great lil fighter

[Gonzalez_Boxing]

He was in beast mode yesterday. Cheers, Arce!

The poster KILLA RIGHT gets props from me, for supporting a guy who most of us thought had no chance.

What's sad is that this fight wasn't the showcase, round of applause for Arce

i supported arce all the way but gave him very little chance of winning cause hes past it imo

[nachorjj]

I want Arce vs Rigondeaux

Vazquez Jr. seems like a GREAT kid.


Although he was supposed to win, you have to consider his limited experience - in light of that, he actually did really well and he showed a *lot* of Championship moxie himself.


We don't need to put him down to hail Arce's quality.

i got nothing against him seems like a very nice man outside the ring. but in terms of boxing, ****head is being overrated and fought noone really.

boxing has been great so far with berto the hypejob getting exposed,
vasquez jr getting beat,
hopefully chavez jr is next

[-STALLION-]

A man who doesn't consider it a performance if his blood hasn't been shed.

But the thing is, he's the only one with an Arce avi. And like you I also gave Arce little chance because of what Darchinyan did to him.

Mexico is on a tear lately, goodness gracious.

Congratulation to the first and so far only 4 division mexican champion!!!
Can we say he is so far the best mexican boxer ever? He did what JMM, JCC, Erik Morales and Salvador Sanchez has failed to do. YES WE CAN!!!

Last night in the main event, after being knocked down, Shane Mosley fought only to survive not to win against a much smaller opponent. The main event would have been a more entertaining fight if Mosley tried for the KO he needed in the later rounds, but instead he seemed satisfied with taking a decision loss.

But in another fight, another older fighter Jorge Arce came back from a knock down, and went on to dominate the later rounds and win a TKO against a much bigger opponent!

I thought Arce had little chance because of the size and age difference, but what a performance! He won a world title in his fourth weight division, becoming one of the few boxers to ever accomplish this.

Jorge Arce is the epitome of everything I love about the sport of boxing.

Props to Arce for showing balls and heart unlike Mr. Mosley. I know he was in there with a way better fighter in Pac conpared to WVJR but he came to win. Shane came to get a check. Smh!!

kudos to Arce, Mexico is on a roll!
