    I think we're all getting a little star struck here with darch. As hardcore fans we're supposed to know better. His biz isn't finished yet at 115, and i'm not talkng rematch w/ nito. There is a very live and deserving champ at 115 left, as long as he can make the weight. A fighter who has been on many undercards of big ppv events. The last man standing @ superfly.
    That man is fernando montiel. He has been the best fighter for years
    @ 115 pounds and took a close decision loss to a big 118lb'er in johnny
    gonzalez. The same JG that floored izzy vazquez. For Vic's sake he needs
    to test the waters of these bigger men by taking on montiel. If he beats
    nando then he has truly earned the right to call out izzy and rafa.

    Actually, he isn't.

    Montiel has announced he is moving up to 118.

    Montiel already announced he's moving to 118 because he can't make 115 and vacated his belt.

    Montiel is a hell of a fighter.
    I think he stops Vic. He is very precise and he has 1 punch KO power.

    Montiel was also coming back from surgery in his last fight, so the time off and diet didn't help at all with the weight.
