    YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 1, ARMENPRESS. Former world champion Vic "The Raging
    Bull" Darchinyan (39-5-1, 28 KOs) of Armenia is eager and ready for
    his rematch against former world champion Nonito "Filipino Flash"
    Donaire (31-2, 20 KOs). Darchinyan will get his shot at redemption
    when he takes on Donaire next Saturday November 9 the American Bank
    Center in Corpus Christy, Texas as part of a big HBO Boxing After
    Dark tripleheader.

    "This is an important fight for me. I am training well. I will be
    in the best shape," Darchinyan promised when Fightnews.com caught
    up with him at the Glendale Fight Club in Glendale, California,
    Armenpress reports. The 2000 Armenian Olympian turned pro shortly
    after the Olympics and launched his pro career in Australia.

    He has been training in Glendale for the last two months. "Everything
    is good, I am very happy with my training. We have 9 more days. This
    is the moment," Darchinyan said about his training camp.

    He has been sparring with 2012 Mexican Olympian Oscar Valdez in
    preparation for Donaire. "Sparring with that kid Oscar is very similar
    to Donaire. I think he is faster than Donaire," Darchinyan said.

    It was six years ago, when then undefeated Vic Darchinyan was
    defending his IBF flyweight title for a seventh time against a
    young and inexperienced challenger in Nonito Donaire. However a
    monster left hook by Donaire to the jaw of Darchinyan floored him,
    resulting in a fifth round knockout which received "Knockout" and
    "Upset of the Year" honors.

    "I didn't know who he was six years ago," said Darchinyan. "I made
    him. No one ever heard of him. He was the number eight or nine
    contender. Everyone knows if he didn't get me with the left hook,
    I would knock him out. I was coming out for a big punch. Everyone
    thinks he is a big deal."

    Since the loss to Donaire, the "Raging Bull" moved up in weight then
    went on to win another world title one year later when he knocked
    out Dmitry Krilov for the IBF super flyweight title and three months
    later became the unified super flyweight champion when he scored
    another brutal knockout over Cristian Mijares winning the WBA & WBC
    super flyweight titles. After conquering the super flyweight division
    Darchinyan then moved up to participate in the Showtime Bantamweight
    tournament in which he lost a close decision at the hands of Abner
    Mares and then scored a technical decision win over former world
    champion Yonnhy Perez.

    "It was my first loss and after that I became undisputed champion
    I proved to everyone that it was my mistake in the Donaire fight,"
    Darchinyan explained.

    The veteran hard hitting southpaw continued his run for a shot at
    a world title but came up short in losing decisions to WBA super
    bantamweight champion Anselmo Moreno in December of 2011 and Japan's
    undefeated WBC bantamweight champion Shinsuke Yamanaka last year.

    Darchinyan wasn't done yet, however, as his experience and toughness
    was the difference when he won a dominating unanimous decision
    over previously unbeaten prospect Luis Orlando Del Valle. After his
    promotional contract with promoter Gary Shaw had expired after the
    fight with Del Valle, the Armenian pondered his options and future
    where he signed with Top Rank as well as managerial contract with
    Frank Espinoza. Darchinyan is coming off a fourth round knockout over
    Javier Gallo in his Top Rank debut in May.

    "I talked to Frank because I know with Gary Shaw I had nothing going.

    I would never fight Donaire. I became number one contender at 122 for
    the WBC so I talked with Frank and signed with him. I know what he
    is about. So I told Frank to please talk to Top Rank and put a fight
    with Donaire," Darchinyan said. "I waited for this fight six years and
    Gary Shaw couldn't put it, thanks to Top Rank they gave me a rematch."

    Darchinyan-Donaire will be a ten round featherweight bout. Now just
    over a week away from the rematch, Darchinyan is in the final phases
    of his training camp as he is anxious to get back in the ring with
    the man that handed him his first loss and knockout.

    "I am still looking for the knockout. This time I won't be silly
    with one punch. This time I will use my skill. I know he is scared
    and chicken.

    I am coming to prove it. I have been in with him, I know how scared
    he is of my punches. I will come and demolish him. I am coming to
    destroy him. I made him. I am coming to break him," Darchinyan said.

    "Mentally I am ready for this fight. I am coming to send him to
    retirement. It is going to be a great fight. I will be ready. I am
    coming to destroy him. I am coming to beat the 2012 Fighter of the
    Year. I want to prove to everyone he is no one," Darchinyan concluded.
