    This is one of the most entertaining scraps I've ever seen! Even though Tyrell Biggs put up a boxing clinic, he still went through hell to went the distance and showed a lot of courage. Underrated performance by Sims as well.

    Jeff Sims has some very interesting fights. It is said that his bout with Jimmy Young he lost in a disputed decision and has quite a brawl with Jose Ribalta and Floyd Cummings. Earnie Shavers slugfest was good as well.

    Wanna hear an underrated fight? Youtube Bantam weight title fight and pick a few at random.

    The Sims fight was Biggs's best performance. He boxed very well, one handed really after a punch from Sims broke Biggs's collarbone.

    The sound of that punch is like a f*cking shotgun.

    Biggs showed some mettle in this fight with Sims. Thought he could have done some things against Mike Tyson. Wasn't smart in that regard back then.

    The story behind the Shavers fight on the Ali-Berbick undercard (which may be embellished, who knows) is when Sims knocked Earnie down in the first, Earnie got up and in a clinch whispered in Sims’ ear, ‘Hey, this is a big PPV, take it easy, we’ve got to go some rounds before the main event). Then Shavers knocked him out in the fifth.

    In the locker room after, Sims supposedly said, ‘I thought you said we had to go rounds.’ And Shavers replied, ‘Welcome to the big time, kid.’
