Question

Looking at a couple of decent fights this weekend, highlighted by the Darchinyan-Arce fight. Any strong opinions out there?&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;2/7, 115lbs: Darchinyan (WBC, WBA, IBF Champ) vs Arce (WBC#1, WBA#1) - SHOWTIME&#xD;&#xA;2/7, 140lbs: Kotelnik (WBA Champ) vs Maidana (WBA#1)&#xD;&#xA;2/6, 175lbs: Henry (IBF#6) vs Mack (IBF#11) - ESPN2&#xD;&#xA;2/7, Heavyweight: Chagaev (WBA Chanp) vs Drummond (WBA#10)&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;I&#x27;ll probably make it a point to sit down and watch the Darchinyan/Arce fight. Not sure about the others.

LOVE Darchinyan ITD.&#xD;&#xA;Like Maidana.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Could use some help with the Henry/Mack fight.  Total toss-up to me.  I&#x27;d probably side with whoever the dog is (I think Henry is &#x2B;110).

Darchkinyan late stoppage. Bad match-up for Arce. He never looks great against southpaws & should not be able to force the inside fight he needs in order to win.Vic should have a field day pot shotting from just outside the pocket. This would have been a much better bout 4 years ago when Arce was less worn out. GLTU!!
