Official Verdict: Vic Darchinyan winner by way of 12 round Unanimous decision and still the WBC/WBA 115pound world Champion.
Vic “The Raging Bull” Darchinyan:
“If I don’t train hard, if I take this guy for granted, this is a much harder fight and maybe I lose,” Darchinyan said. “He is a good fighter. He took all of my punches and kept fighting back.”
(on Nonito Donaire)>“I’ve got the belts, he knows where I am. If we don’t fight it might be my last fight at 115,” Darchinyan said.
Rodrigo “Gato” Guerrero:
“The head butts hurt me the most. He really didn’t hurt me with his punches,”
“I’m not happy to lose but I feel really good. I think people know now who I am and that I can fight and that I didn’t come here just to lose or to just fall down,” “I came to fight and I came to win.”Maybe next time and against someone else.
