Nationality in lead
Why is Darchinyan listed in the intro as "an Armenian boxer" when (as is pointed out later in the page) he became an Australian citizen over seven years ago. Surely he should be Australian boxer, Armenian-born Australian boxer, or (if he is a dual citizen) Armenian-Australian boxer. Comments people? Tigerman2005 (talk) 04:03, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
Responce to Nationality
In an interview on 60 minutes, he said he is proud of his Armenian heritage, but he considers himself Australian, his Russian born wife Olga is an Australian Citizen as well, and of course it goes without saying his son Rubin (Aussie born of course). They speak English at home, that sounds pretty bloody Australian to me. Aussie or Aussie/Armenian are valid claims, but to say he's purely 100% Armenian makes 0 sense. I hope this gives you clarity my friend. god bless — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aussieswimmer (talk • contribs) 11:08, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=2787151 "A concerned Vic Darchinyan cancelled celebrations after his successful IBF and IBO flyweight titles defences against Victor Burgos, as the stricken Mexican boxer underwent surgery to remove a blood clot from his brain. Former IBF junior flyweight champion Burgos was in a medically-induced coma with his wife Claudia, other family and friends at his bedside in a Los Angeles hospital. Darchinyan and his supporters prayed for Burgos and the Australian boxer wanted to visit him in hospital before flying home to Sydney, but was told it wasn't possible."

Enough with the "Chicken Dance"
There are two separate places which mention "the Chicken Dance" in this article. It is absolutely ridiculous and childish, and is in no way funny at all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.166.238.146 (talk) 15:13, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
