    3 options are on the table for Vic Darchinyan, according to Daily Telegraph, all at bantamweight, where Vic will make his debut.

    -Joseph "King Kong" Agbeko, hard punching IBF champ, promises an exciting fight
    -Anselmo Moreno, WBA champ, dethroned Sidorenko in Germany, very tall southpaw but lacks punching power
    -Fernando Montiel, who moves up from SFlyW and fights for the WBO interim BW title on March 28

    All 3 fights sounds good and all 3 offer pretty much danger to Darchinyan, who will be at a size disadvantage, and vs. Agbeko, power disadvantage as well. Obviously Montiel is the big name, but Agbeko would be a very good fight as well.



    One thing is for sure: Darchinyan will take no tune-up or easy opponent, but a world champion in his BW debut. Credit to the Raging Bull!

    King Kong would be an AWESOME fight!

    Montiel will be the best fight for boxing.

    I'd like to see him fight Hasegawa.

    Any of those fights would be more than acceptable, and Darchinyan-Agbeko could be a FOTY candidate.

    If this is true, Darchinyan will be delivering another match-up that's good for boxing.:good

    They will fight the light punching Moreno to protect Darchinyan's Glass Jaw.

    The guy has already been exposed as a Glass Jawed fraud and will get no credit from anyone until he rematches his daddy Donaire.

    Agbeko's not a massive puncher really. He looked like a big puncher vs Perez but has been more of a volume puncher in other fights. Like thelast one vs William Gonzalez, and like the fight he had where he controversially lost to Wladimir Sidorenko in Germany.

    I like Vic, but he may be moving a bit fast jumping another weight class.

    Agreed :thumbsup

    Can't lose with any of them, but a fight with Agbeko has all action written all over it.
