How far do you think he can go? Everytime i've seen him im majorly impressed with all aspects of his game! :think Or has he left it to late having came into the pro game quite late?
He could likely clean the division. Shutting out and stopped Rivera was a good start, considering the layoff and considering that Collazo struggled heavily with Rivera. He'll like beat Alcine badly also and then take another decent name late this year, that could very well put him into candidacy of fighter of the year if he beats all by wide margins. Very skilled guy, I am impressed with him. Shame he's overlooked.
I'd take him over PBF, Mayweather and Spinks personally, he's a nightmare any of them. Whether he gets the decision is another factor.... I'd also take him wide over DLH, Karmazin etc. He could be a P4P level fighter with his speed, style and skill level, but he'd need the wins to get there. You can see why he was avoided.
Agreed, very very high risk and little reward. I hope he gets in about soon, when did he turn pro, what 27/28?
He's one of those guys like Glen Johnson where they are very fresh at advanced age, he's good for 2 more years or so to make his mark and he has a really good set of textbook skills to back him up further if his speed starts to slip. BUT, he won't have more than 4 years as a top level fighter, that's for sure.
I have yet to see Sergey fight, but if he's THAT good, then he will accomplish something. We will have to find out.
Man are people getting carried away or what.....Yes Simms is a good talent and prospect who may be able to become a quite good champion but this talk that hewould destroy oscar and floyd.... Simms has 2 notable names on his entire resume, Mckart and Rivera...and yes he won both these fights, well done... But that does not mean he would dominate the best fighter in the world and one of the fighters of the generation...I dont understand how people can let themselves get so carried away, dont get me wrong i think his good, very good, but is simply not good enough yet to dominate floyd or Oscar....
I still want to know what inspired his mom to name her twin sons Travis and Tarvis... I wouldn't necessarily pick Travis as the favorite against PBF/DLH/Spinks, but he's an awkward southpaw with good skillws, which presents a tough challenge for just about anyone.
