WBC/WBA super-flyweight champion Cristian Mijares is arguably fast
emerging as a top 10 pound for pound fighter in all respected boxing
publications ratings-and with justifiable reason. But his opponent
at The Home Depot Center in Carson, California on Saturday(Nov 1)
night Vic Darchinyan definitely has other ideas.
The Australian based Armenian is a massive puncher and is very
confident he will be the one claiming the exciting Mexican’s world
title belts come Saturday night.
Speaking at the last public workout before Saturday’s clash the IBF
super-flyweight king said: "He(Mijares) is a very good fighter, but
when he feels my punches he will feel different. He’s fought some
tough guys, but no one like me.
"I know when I’m talking that I will deliver, added Darchinyan,
30-1-1-(24). I’m going to be too much for him. He’s overrated.
"I’ve fought southpaws before. It’s no different for me.
"I’m going to do some boxing. You’re going to see how fast and smart
I am on Saturday.
"I’m going to put on a show for my Armenian fans at The Home Depot
Center.
"I’m very confident and ready for this fight. I’m ready to fight
anyone.
"I think I am the best fighter he has ever, and will ever, fight. His
style is an amateur style. I will deliver.
"I want to become the undisputed world champion after this fight.
"On Saturday, you’re going to see a different Vic Darchinyan. I won’t
try to take him out with just one punch. You’re going to see a much
smarter Vic on Saturday night.
"Mijares is a very good fighter, but that’s OK when you fight someone
that doesn’t have the power that I have. He’s fought guys that don’t
have my power.
"The Mexican fans are going to support me because they are going to
see a warrior. They like to see warriors and they will see it in me
on Saturday.
"People pay the money and they want to see exciting fights. I’ll give
it to them on Saturday.
"In my one loss my opponent didn’t beat me, I beat myself. You won’t
see any of that against Mijares. I’m going to prove that I am focused
to be the undisputed world champion.
"All I’m thinking about is this fight. I haven’t been this excited
and dedicated since my first world title fight.
