    "I'm scared every time I go into the ring, but it's how you handle it. What you have to do is plant your feet, bite down on your mouthpiece and say, 'Let's go.'"

    - Mike Tyson

    Some recent words for Vic about Donaire

    “Donaire needs to stand up and fight someone who can actually throw some punches back at him,” stated Darchinyan. “Since he fought me, who has he fought? Bums that either shouldn’t be boxing or should be retired. I am praying he wins his next fight and comes through with no injuries, I don’t want him making excuses when I finish his career. Don’t go looking for Arce and make that a excuse of why won’t fight me. Get through your next fight and it’s me and you, anytime, anywhere.

    He continued, “Stop running and saying there were rematch clauses and you wanted to fight me. I would have fought you the next day if I had my way. The people around you care about your career they know if you fight me you will be knocked out. Now you’re fighting junior flyweights and you think you’re a champion. Your opponents are hand picked to make you look good. You’re a fraud and you’re fighting bums. I promise I won’t make the same mistake again. I made you and I will break you and expose you for the fraud that you really are.”


    Freakin' Darchinyan man :lol:
