Darchinyan’s tall order
SUPER flyweight world champion Vic Darchinyan is planning his first
major Australian fight for five years, but his immediate objective is
overcoming the tallest challenger of his career.
Darchinyan has revealed an ambitious wish-list for 2010 after
returning to the gym this week in preparation for his December 12 WBC
and WBA super-flyweight title defence against Mexican Tomas Rojas
(174cm) in California.
The 33-year-old southpaw’s plans for next year include a potential
rematch with his first conqueror Nonito Donaire and world title fights
in his nation of birth Armenia and adopted country Australia.
