Darchinyan vs. Guerrero
“Showtime” is like my home and I look forward to defending my title again on Shotime and fighting in front of my fans at Agua Caliente. This is a good fight for me and a fight where I will showcase all my skills – not just a punch. I feel really good and had a great training camp. I plan to do everything — box, think and stay calm. Guerrero is a good kid and he’s fought a couple good fighters and done very well. There’s no way I’m going to underestimate him. I think he has a future in boxing, but it won’t begin until after I beat him on Saturday,” hard-hitting Vic Darchinyan who is going to defend his WBC/WBA super flyweight crowns against streaking Rodrigo Guerrero said.
“I am really happy and excited for this opportunity – my chance of a lifetime. This is what I have waited for my whole life and I am confident of doing well. When they first told me I was fighting for a world title, it was such a huge surprise, I couldn’t believe it. I still didn’t believe it for a little while. But, finally, after about two weeks of sparring, it sunk in. I’d been promised major fights before, but they never happened. Now, this one is here, and I am ready. I know a lot of people may not have heard of me, but I guarantee I am not here to fall down in the first or 12th round – or any round, for that matter. People and fans who have never seen me fight are saying I’m no good. I believe they are all in for a surprise, a really big surprise,” Darchinyan’s rival said.
