He is currently promoted by Top Rank and managed by Frank Espinoza. "Vic still has the killer instinct which boxing fans love," said Espinoza after the win in Laredo, Texas. "His power, attitude and world class experience makes him a risky proposition for any of the champions." The two division world champion from Armenia has his eyes set firmly on another belt. "I want a third title. It's very important for my career," said Darchinyan. "I'm still very hungry and being a champion in three weight classes is something that would be historic.
