Vic done?

[EelsRule]

Vics not popular over in the American forum. He doesnt seem that arragant to me, though I agree he never looked too skilled. I recon Vic is over.

[Dr Gonzo]

nope, being beaten will get him a fight with Arce - now someone has shown his weakness all the big name flyweights will want a go

[WhataRock]

He will be back
Hopefully he can improve on his weaknesses

[EelsRule]

I doubt he can improve. He is too far into his career, pretty much an old dog. I wont mind being proved wrong though.

[T.C.W]

He Can Win A Title Again He Is Only 31.

The Way He Fights And That Lose Is Very Bad For Him.

[theunderdog]

i think a rematch with donaire is a bad idea. he should move up in weight but stay the hell away from mijares

[BoxingKangaroo]

i always thought vic needed to tighten up his defence, it was only a matter of time before this happened imo. i dont think he is shot though, it all depends how he rebounds from this loss, some fighters dont recover and find their best form after a shock loss.

[chinachin_76]

He'll be back. With as good a knockout punch he has, he must come back. Once he tweeks his defensive style and adjusts his attitude and approach he could very well be a force to reckon with. The Americans in the general section hate him coz hes good, thats all it is, they're jealous.

its strange that they hate him - i couldnt even name an american flyweight :lol:

[EelsRule]

Yeah, they hate him cause his good. Same with Saddam.

[Box-on]

Actually I would like to see him come back and KO someone just to shut them up on the General Forum. Bah he's achieved more than the keyboard champions who are making those threads anyways.

[PorkChopExpress]

It's so stupid... all these people are using this KO to say how shit he is. They're merely haters cuz he talks it up. Well up til now he backed it up too and when he comes back he'll show 'em.

The punch was perfect and his defence sloppy...

[Hrak]

Vics got to make an adjustment to his style, his rushing in with no defence is a common trait of his and he has to change it because all of his future opponent will look for that opening. Vic shouldnt move up either, his style doesnt suit a higher weight. He should take a safe oppoenet in his next fight, then take a serious contender( Arce), then rematch Donair.

[ashley]

Vic will be back......I know we will see more KO's from him.....he will pick his mark next time with caution....not rush in all the time......but with his record and his form who could blame him.

[ipswich express]

Bound to happen at some stage if you rush in with your hands by your side. I think he'll just tighten up a bit and be back. Just as long as he doesn't become gun shy. That's the big question. A rematch with Donaire will be a top fight.

[CANVASBAK]

He will be back a lot of great fighters have had there share of losses and have come back stronger.
Just hope Vic learns from this fight if he does it wont be to long till he has another title.

[WhataRock]

Thinking about it more this reminds me a lot of when KT lost.

Kostya was loving his power, and though it wasnt obvious he may have been getting a bit cocky. He then took on a guy who showed him what pro boxing is about, much like what happened to Vic.

Kostya may have been looking at a potential superfight after Vince, against De la Hoya perhaps. Vic was eyeing a move the superfly, and was talking it up a lot.

After the Kostya's loss, the rest is history, he had the best wins of his career and endeared himself to the Australian public a lot more.
Maybe Vic will do the same.

Maybe Vic will do the same.I agree with everything you are saying but then I really thought about it and said nah. Vics style is so out there that he will need some major changes to make me believe this loss was a blessing in disguise. If he continues with his old habits he will get dusted again.

[Cobra33]

Tighten up his defence?Christ Vic had NO defence.
He had a big punch and nothing else.
