    We are in for a real treat with this historic unification fight. Just look at the way their styles mesh up. Does anyone think Vic can beat Cristian without stopping him?

    Absolutely not...this fight is going to look just like Calzaghe/Lacy. This is my early Christmas present!!

    Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!!

    I honestly can't see Darchinyan winning bar a knockout, this matchup is just completely wrong for him. Mijares should take a wide decision.

    Mijares's matcho style could get in him trouble. Vic is already baiting him to come to slug it out with him. Mijares' chin is very good, but he chooses to take far too much punishment. Vic might make him pay for it.

    Nah. Mijares is too smart to bang with a known puncher like Vic. He's gonna outbox Vic silly for 12 rounds, maybe even get a late stoppage.

    Mijares wide UD. Vic has a puncher's chance though.

    Mijares is smart but also el mas macho.

    This fight will be a war. I cannot wait!

    El Lucio by stoppage.

    Do you think Vic can do it?

    I'd love to see it but I'm leaning towards Mijares.

    Should be a great fight. Could well be a Lacying, but if Vic can draw him into a slugfest he certainly has a shot at the win.

    People stop with the Lacy horse****....nobody will ever be dominated like that ever again so ****ing stop already....this will be a good fight as there will be times where Mijares chooses to trade and this could very well get him into trouble....It will be a good fight
    Mijares UD

    Mijares should win but if Vic can load up at the right moments & catch him cleanly i can see a upset.

    I'm going with Mijares by schooling,he has everything you need to beat Darchinyan,to me it seems a wrong fight for Vic but props to him for taking it..but don't sleep on Vic,him KOing Mijares would not surprise me
