Vic Darchinyan has vowed to "deliver" and become the undisputed
world super-flyweight champion when he meets Cristian Mijares on
Saturday night.
The Armenian fighter will bring the IBF title to the ring in Carson,
California, while Mijares puts his WBA and WBC belts on the line.
However, Darchinyan says there is only one winner with Mijares about
to find out that he is moving up to a different level.
Darchinyan said: "He (Mijares) is a very good fighter, but when he
feels my punches he will feel different. He's fought some tough guys,
but no-one like me.
"I know when I'm talking that I will deliver. I'm going to be too
much for him. He's overrated.
"I think I am the best fighter he has ever, and will ever, fight. His
style is an amateur style."
Darchinyan, who has knocked out 24 of his 32 opponents and lost only
once, is also unconcerned by Mijares' southpaw style.
"I've fought southpaws before. It's no different for me," he added.
"I'm going to do some boxing. You're going to see how fast and smart
I am on Saturday."
And the 32-year-old believes both his fans - and the Mexican's -
will be won over by his display.
"On Saturday, you're going to see a different Vic Darchinyan. I won't
try to take him out with just one punch. You're going to see a much
smarter Vic on Saturday night.
"In my one loss (to Nonito Donaire last year) my opponent didn't beat
me, I beat myself. You won't see any of that against Mijares. I'm
going to prove that I am focused to be the undisputed world champion.
"The Mexican fans are going to support me because they are going to
see a warrior. They like to see warriors and they will see it in me.
"People pay the money and they want to see exciting fights. I'll give
it to them on Saturday."
