I’m leaning towards Darchinyan in this fight. His recent resume is obviously more impressive(other than the Donaire loss). He also hits more like a full blown Bantamweight. People also forget that Darchinyan ,ay have been a little tentative in the Donaire loss due to his previous bout with Victor Burgos where unfortunetly Burgos suffered life threatning injuries.

After a couple of feel out rounds Darchinyan starts to land some big bombs around rounds 4-6 and in the Sixth his conerman will throw in the towel to save the brave but battered Arce.

I hear you but do not agree with you. Vic is awkward and can be hit, but he’s proven to have a decent beard (the Donaire shocker aside). I think Arce’s aggressive style is made-to-order for Darchinyan.

Definitely a tough fight for Arce, but I do believe he pull an upset….via KO! I don’t buy into Darchinyan’s evolution as a boxer puncher, Arce has some devastating power of his own which should get through Darchinyan’s shady defense

Pretty cool that you got to see him live; I guess the little guy does pack a whallop. And I don’t think Arce will be able to stand up to it.

I made it to the fan friendly “workout” today and was very much impressed with Darchinyan. A truly nice guy with great speed and (yes, I know the bag doesn’t hit back) enough power to put a serious hurt on Arce. Still, this is Arce’s hometown (at least it will feel that way on Saturday), so maybe that will light a fire under him to put his money where his mouth is.
At the end of the day, I thank Showtime for putting this fight on for free!
