/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Vic `The Raging Bull” Darchinyan (33-2-1, 27 KOs)
will defend his World Boxing Council/World Boxing Association
(WBC/WBA) super flyweight crowns against streaking Rodrigo `Gato”
Guerrero (13-1-1, 9 KOs) in the main event on a special edition of
ShoBox this Saturday, March 6 .
An Australian-based Armenian, the exciting Darchinyan will be making
his fifth consecutive appearance on SHOWTIME and 11th overall. He has
scored knockouts in 14 of his last 15 victories.
The switching-hitting Guerrero, of Ciudad Neza, Mexico, has won 11 in
a row. This will be his first start on SHOWTIME and in the United
States.
`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. Guerrero is a good kid and he’s fought a couple good fighters
and done very well. I think he has a future in boxing, but it won’t
begin until after I beat him on Saturday.
I don’t want to talk about any possible fights for me in the future.
My main focus is on Guerrero and defeating a determined, young
opponent. I am here and ready to do my job,’ Darchinyan 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. 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,’ boxingscene.com cited Guerrero
as saying.
