Vic Darchinyan accepts Jorge Arce challengeMay 10, 2011 - 11:06 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Former WBA/WBC/IBF super flyweight champion Vic Darchinyan talked to Fightnews about Jorge Arce who challenged him after his victory over Wilfredo Vasquez, Jr., to capture the WBO 122 pound title in Las Vegas. “I think Jorge Arce must be crazy. He went and challenged me straight after his win. Does he think I am Vasquez, Jr., who is going to stand there in front of him and do nothing? I will punish Jorge more than I did when I fought him last. He thinks he is the only one who has improved by not making 112 and 115. I was very happy for him yesterday because he is a true Mexican warrior that always comes to fight.” “I thought he was big chance against Vasquez but it will be a different story if we fight again. There is no more boxing, only power and I will make sure that if I fight him again it wont be a technical knockout but the knockout of 2011, he will feel like he has been hit by a truck the next time we are in the ring.” “I just want to give a message to Jorge Arce: it’s okay to stand in front of a camera and call me out with your team behind you but if and when we fight it will only be you and me in the ring, and I promise you and all my fans, I will punish you, knock you out cold and retire you.” Top stories Armenian gymnast, Olympic bronze medalist Artur Davtyan has reached the finals of the World Cup.
