    Darchinyan-Arce on Feb 7!
    A must-see matchup that fans, media and the fighters themselves have been clamoring for will take place when two of boxing's biggest little men and hardest punchers, Vic Darchinyan and Jorge Arce, clash on Saturday, Feb. 7, 2009, live on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING (SHOWTIME, 9 p.m. ET/PT, delayed on the west coast). Darchinyan's newly acquired 115-pound IBF/WBC/WBA world titles will be on the line. The once-beaten Darchinyan (31-1-1, 25 KOs), of Sydney, Australia, by way of Armenia, will be making his first defense since unifying the 115-pound division with a demonstrative ninth-round knockout over Mexico's Cristian Mijares Nov. 1, 2008, on SHOWTIME. Darchinyan, who entered the ring as the IBF champion, walked out with Mijares' WBC and WBA belts after blowing away the favored champion in a career-defining performance. The popular, crowd-pleasing Arce (51-4-1, 39 KOs), of Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Mexico, is the current WBA interim super flyweight champion and is a former WBC 115-pound and WBO 108-pound titleholder. Arce has been victorious in five consecutive fights, including a fourth-round TKO over Isidro Garcia Nov. 1, 2008, to capture the interim WBA strap, and has won 31 out of his last 32. The only loss during his scintillating run came on a 12-round decision to Mijares on April 14, 2007. The 12-round world title fight, co-promoted by Gary Shaw Productions, LLC, and Bob Arum's Top Rank, Inc., will take place at a site to be announced.

    Mijares beat Arce & Darchinyan whipped Mijares, so maybe it won't be the thriller I thought it might be. Darchinyan may put a real beat down on Arce.

    WOW!

    You've surprised me, JETSKI. I thought this was going to be another thread about Golota/Pavlik/Adamek. But I guess after Pavlik got his ass beat by Hopkins, Golota quit for the 50th time against Austin, and Adamek's impending destruction at the hands of Cunningham, you decided to go a different route.

    Arce is a fantastic little fighter, and very tough....but Vic is going to dish out a beating on him. It will be bloody, and it will be a legtimate knockout....I feel bad for Arce, but if he can get in close and nullify Vic's range then....who knows? He can punch too.

    Like who???

    This is going to be a great close fight. Arce might take this one late or in a close decision.

    I'm looking forward to this. Unlike Mijares I think Arce might fancy his chances duking it out with Darchinyan.

    Arce will take a vicious beating and get stopped on cuts or TKO'd. His defense is abysmal.

    Not exciting at all. Arce is well past his best these days anyway.
