    This will be very interesting indeed. I wonder what promotion he will go in to. Since he is on Showtime, maybe Strikeforce?

    Oh here comes the orally fixated homo erotic poster again. What is your deal? Why are you SO fixated with men's mouths? Everytime you post it has to do with men's mouths, its like you spend an unhealthy portion of your life discussing the pros and cons of men's mouths. It's quite disturbing.

    You've got Vic categorised completely wrong. He's been stopped once in 40 fights and will never face someone in MMA with the hand striking ability of Nonito Donaire.

    I always wonder why more boxers who haven't cracked the big time, don't simply take up BJJ as a hobby whilst they are waiting and then switch to MMA if boxing doesn't work out for them as they had hoped.

    Agreed, if he can embrace his wrestling background then he has serious power in 4oz gloves.

    Very exciting news. I can remember a few threads in the past mentioning vic as the
    ideal boxing for mma. One of a small number imo.

    FYI - boxers saying this is great publicity for them. They get alot of combat fans interested in them. Darchinyan is probably being talked about on every MMA forum in the world now. A number of MMA fans may tune in to see what they think about him making the switch. If they see him get a KO, maybe they get a bit excited.

    Too easy to get injured rolling.

    That may well become a trend. At the very least it offers good crosstraining.

    If Vic approached a UFC fight like he did his bout yesterday he'd get beaten for sure. Very unimpressive performance.

    Did I not specifically say that Glasschinyan was head and above any MMA striker? Yes, I did. Did I not specify that his Glass Jaw would be shattered on the ground? Yes, I did. Take your illiterate ass elsewhere.

    Vic Darchinyan fought a bad tactical fight the other day but he never looked like going down, let alone get KOed. He's had over 40 pro fights, many of them world title fights and he's only been stopped once. You are the only person misinformed enough to have ever claimed he has a glass jaw :patsch

    But keep treading the glass jaw road my friend. It's a long lonely journey, but somebody has to do it :good

    It is never a good thing to be thinking about future bouts in MMA or even in boxing. Especially when Vic operates on an elite level and everyone he fights could potentially beat him.
