Anthony Sims Jr

Post by Controversial »

I can’t say I know a lot about him other than he is FMMs cousin.

According to Wikipedia “Sims Jr. was a decorated US amateur and finished his amateur career with a record of 188-13, including 10 national titles.”

Anthony “The Magician” Sims is 23 year old 6’1” undefeated LHW with a 17-0 (16 KO) record with 10’of those KOs in the 1st round., however in a recent interview he said he wants to drop to SMW.

Anyone have any thoughts about his chances of hitting the big time?

He's got solid amateur credentials but hasnt fought any tough competition as a pro. The Argentine Veron he stopped today on Hearn's UK show has been his best foe so far but was only 28-21 going in. Sims is only 24 so he's got room to develop. I'm sure Matchroom will start matching him tougher pretty soon.

YouTube doesnt have much on Sims but here's a few highlights I found there:

looks very well schooled, main thing is the patience in his work - can't see many SMW's minus Callum Smith itching to fight him!
