I can't wait to see this if it does happen lol. I'd love to see Darchinyan get humiliated.

Mijares pulverises him if it's true, bad style for Darchinyan. I think Mijares stops him late on accumulation and sharply landed blows that Darchinyan doesn't see... Mijares has underrated power, he's not a feather fist at all, has stunned guys with good chins pretty nasty and Darchinyan's chin is suspect IMO. The difference between the Donaire performance vs. Darchinyan and the possible Mijares performance is that Donaire showed flaws and was not fully dominant, Mijares will flawlessly dominant every aspect of the bout like a veteran matador.

This is if the bout happens. I'm excited, another belt for a living boxing god.

More and more I see Mijares getting popular with boxing fans and the media alike, very pleased to see this. Most people enjoy his masterful boxing as he gives much in the way of varied work and attempts. Making Munoz miss by slipping 5-6 shot combinations was a thing of beauty, then sending a vicious straight counter down the pipe, as well as consistent uppercuts...

Yes, Darchinyan's getting another bad loss if he faces Mijares. Not a bad fight either, two well known lower weight opponents for further unification down there. Soon enough, Mijares will be the 115 undisputed champ with all 4 belts, now THATS exciting, especially for an awesome fighters who's been ripped off several times in his career.

I think Mijares lacks power, but I also think he will take this. He is too smart for Darchinyan.

I hope this fight gets through though - sounds interesting.

Great news, we don't have any undisputed champions in boxing at the moment so I hope it happens. Mijares to outpoint Darchinyan for the unified crown.

Ohh nice I haven't been keeping track of the belts in that division. So will Mijares be unified champ at his weight division if he beats Darchinyan? What about Doniare doesn't he have a belt?

Mijares is what boxing is all about. A warrior, a beautifully skilled tactician with every trick you could want and a guy intent on testing himself against the best available, so far doing so via domination's on top of it.

Hopefully he'll keep this train going at the level he's at now and we'll be talking about his glorious, flawless victories for years after.

Personally, i think a Vic loss is a foregone conclusions. I really want to see Mijares vs. Montiel soon.

To be honest Illmatic, save for a freak KO, anybody 115 and under vs. Mijares is a forgone conclusion to lose. They sure as hell aren't winning any 'legitimate' decisions on him, a skilled division, but we're talking about fighting an example of mastery here.

Also glad to see you here mate, you were a great poster at ESB.

Mijares holds the WBC & WBA titles at 115 & Darchinyan holds the IBF. Mijares would become the first undisputed champion we've had in a while. Donaire holds the IBF at 112.

Yes, then he can go for Montiel and the WBO, not that the WBO is a necessary thing, but the belt holder in this case is the other real elite fighter in the division. This is where people establish greatness.

He also stated that after he wipes 115 clean, he wishes to clean 118 and become undisputed there.

Now that attitude is truly what boxers need. Mijares is the king.
