    Darchinyan punches twice as hard as others in his immediate and neighbouring weigh divisions but if Darchinyan gets hit half as hard as he punches himself he is going down. I see a "Calzaghe vs Lacy" type fight coming up for Darchinyan and lets say he is not going to be Calzaghe

    Vic does not drop anywhere in my P4P Aussie Rankings.
    Stays at 2 IMO, but the gap between him & Katsidis has closed alot.:yep

    It's funny there is a bunch of ****tards on the main forum that obviously didn't see the fight saying Vic is done and should retire etc.
    Hell he dominated every round, flicked out a very effective jab plenty of times, used heaps of foot work and was patient, Catubay was awkward as hell he ducked down heaps and threw wild shots, Vic followed his corners advice and took his time getting rounds under his belt, 12th round he put the pedal to the metal and used Catubays head as speedball and stopped him, not bad for a guy that apprently lost his heart and soul.:lol:

    This guy had 13 losses, 7 by ko. Wasn't that expected of Vic?

    And when you get rocked by a mediocre guy like Catubay after coming off a brutal ko defeat...their probably is reason to say vic has seen better days. Forget the patience stuff...Vic was Vic, but he has lost his aura and didn't react too good the few times he was tagged. And for all the posters saying Vic is just about done...plenty expected Catubay to be blown out in a few rds, and th efight was widely considered a joke.

    On that effort, he'd get beat by any top ten flyweight. Vic isn't young, 112 may not suit him and 115 is just as hard.

    donaire beats him even worse if they rematch. Actually, Vic will get ko'd by the first decent puncher they put him in with.

    Patient my posterior! Darchinyan had predetermined he was going to KO Catubay with a big left and didn't have the sense to adjust his plan and listen to his corner to exploit the uppercut. The outcome was thatDarchinyan should have KOed this guy very early but ended up getting tied up when Catubay charged in. Darchinyan was just a poor form of his old self just more tentative and less confident.

    People like me will lose money betting against Darchinyan because his power is a great leveller but mark my words he never was a great boxer and never will be but he is very effective despite his very real shrtcomings that people over look because of his KO record - remember Jeff Lacy - huge power but had a crappy one dimensional game plan against Calzaghe and he got schooled - the same is waiting for Darchinyan
