Delray Raines V.S. Tarvis Simms
Raines V.S. Simms
Travis Simms (22-0) and last min replacement Delray"Rainmaker" Raines (14-3)
both weighed 160 at today's weigh in for Saturday's 10 round main event fight at the
Harbor Yard Arena in Bridgeport CT.The older and more experienced Simms(37)
said a few choice words after Raines(22) stepped off the scales ,
But Raines was unmoved and said back to Simms I have been training for this
day for over a solid year and you have have been talking about retiring and
I am going to give you your answer tomorrow night.After the weigh in Raines said I
know I am the under dog and Simms is taking this fight based on his fight
with Buddy McGirt Jr. and that's exactly what I want. Because I have been
sparring guys that would beat Simms and I have been training like a champ ,
I will not be denied this night that I have been preparing for , for so long !

Good luck to him, but I don't think your guy has much of a chance.

Drugs? A gun? Is the mob paying Simms to take a dive? Panama Lewis working his corner?

Because he was a pot smoker that did not train back then , in the
last year he has changed his life and wants to show it , He wants the
fight to prove to himself ! He dont care about the people saying
the stuff you are saying , because he knows you are the same people
that will talking him down for not stepping up. He has been ready to
fight tough for 6 or 8 months now ! This is just the first one to
come up and plus the guys he has been beating sparring would beat
a 37 year old Tarvis Simms!

2 wins out of his last 4 opponents,4 guys 2 wins between the lot

Apparently he's well on his way to becoming accomplished at getting knocked out. Like I said, I wish him luck, but this is a mismatch of epic proportions.
And I was just giving my opinion on the fight you so graciously let us know about.

Re: Delray Raines V.S. Tarvis Simms
By the way SOB its Tarvis Simms not Travis Simms, just letting people know because it could get confusing to some of the new members here who don't follow boxing as much, because both Simms are 37 and are still currently boxing. And can someone tell me why the hell Tarvis Simms never got anywhere in his career :confused:

He sparred Donovan Castaneda ,Jose Luis Gonzalez and Jesse Feliciano
2 sets of 8 rounds against each fighter in the last 6 months ! And never lost around out of 16 rounds
against any of the 3 ! So I think its a step up from his opponents but something he has been
prepairing for ! But he is a fighter ! And thats what they do ! I don't expect hatters to understand
your not made that way !
