    I know this fight should of happened 3-4 years ago, but with Vic winning a title in the superfly division, something Arce has not been able to achieve yet but really wants to since he has said he wanted to join the ranks of Chavez,Morales and Barrera as the only mexican 3 division title holders (before the Mijares fight), the oppurtunity is there now for Arce.

    Who do you all got?

    Darchiyan, and not by a little either. He probably knocks Arce out rather early.

    Agreed, Arce clearly lost his last fight and fighting at this weight greatly diminishes the size advantage he had at jnrfly and to a lesser extent fly.

    But he still has that p4p power that can turn a fight, I would never write him off.

    I would've said Arce a few years ago too.

    But now, I think he gets destroyed. He looked like **** in his last fight and got hurt a few times.

    I dont know what the **** Arce or his management were thinking by not making a fight with Darchinyan when they were both hot a few years ago, but regardless I would pick Vic.

    I agree with others on here. Darchinyan would beat Arce today but when the fight was hot I thought Arce would have been favored. It was a good fight then and would still be a very good match but Darchinyan wins. It makes sense but I get the feeling we'll never see this fight.
