    Yeah, he looked totally flat in that fight, and that made me lose interest in him. But I saw his fight with Jose Rivera on the Peter-Toney undercard and he looked good. Rivera isn't an elite fighter though. The style of Simms was too economical for my taste too, but he has knockout power and he's slick. His style is really similar to Daniel Santos. He just didn't let his hands go in that fight you're talking about with Alcime, and he kept clinching continuously too. **** got on my nerves.
    That fight was awful, and even tho I liked Simms, I was glad to see him lose his belt to an unknown in his hometown cuz of it.

      Guillermo Jones is coming up on a year in September since he won his title, but there's nothing scheduled.

      The WBA should call for purse bids and force Santos, Jones and Kessler to each fight a mandatory, but it seems that senile old men run the WBA and they're asleep at the wheel.
      DK isn't ******, the reason he gets his fighters to fight for the WBA is because a titleholder doesn't have to fulfill his mandatory if he doesn't want to for 2 years (ask Trekas) and they rarely even enforce their 'rules' for the challenger.

      Brahim Asloum was supposed to fight Giovanni Segura 2 years ago. Santos better hope he doesn't get thrown in there against P-Will, that's the worst guy to fight after long layoff. I would have picked him to beat Williams before, but not now.

      Every fighter that has a title and/or wants to fight should leave Don King cuz they are only going to fight once a year, twice if they're lucky.

        I hope he gets a fight soon. He is underrated, even if he got a gift decision against Margs.
