    I thought that might happen as Eddie Hearn did say he wanted to move him down to 168. And yeah he'll be a big SMW for sure.

    Agreed did you see the interview after his last fight where he was taking advise from Barry Hearn?, he came across very well, very charming and respectful.
    Quiet refreshing from an up and coming American.
    Without being disrespectful American boxers seem to be suffering from the popularity of UFC, and trying to over compensate and over hype themselves, it’s like they are forcing themselves on the world, rather than earning their acceptance through performances, and knowledge of the sport in interviews.
    British boxing is in peak right now and I can’t think of one uk fighter who behaves like that? Are they missing a trick? Uk fight/boxing fans have more affiliation with the new wave of Ukraine fighters than American fighters, and that’s with use of translators.

    He will be Hearns US poster boy. With the right promotion and matchmaking they could make a real buzz around this kid. They just have to hope he delivers when he steps up. Mora next would be a great low risk name to build off of.

    Yeah I saw that a couple of weeks ago and yes he did come across well.

    I suspect Sims probably has a significant amount of British blood coursing through his veins, either that or he's been mentored by a British gentleman, most like a member of the aristocracy like my good self.

    I agree with what you're saying although I think they're just generally more uncouth and uncultured for the most part, well certainly compared to the British they are. But to be fair to them the same can be said about all non-Brits.

    They both very talented prospects with skills, power and they're good to watch.

    Well Sims is moving down to 168 and even if he wasn't they're both signed to Hearn and I doubt he would want to match them up with each other yet and I would rather not see them fight each other yet either.

    I've always found the inclusion of ''no homo'' kind of gay
