Anthony Sims Jr. meets Colombia's Roamer Alexis Angulo in a super middleweight contest on Thursday January 30th at the Meridian in Island Gardens in Miami, live on DAZN in the US and on Sky Sports in the UK. From the state of Indiana, Sims Jr (20-0, 18 KOs) secured three wins in 2019, finishing the year with a stoppage win in Chicago in October after going the ten-round distance for the first time in April in California. Angulo (25-1, 22 KOs) represents a stiff test for Sims' aspirations with the Miami-based Colombian having only none blemish on his record, coming against Gilberto Ramirez when he challenged the Mexican for his WBO title in June 2018.

 

Sims said, “I’ve been ready for this step up for some time and I will prove that I am ready to mix it with the best with a devastating performance on January 30th – it’s time to bring the funk!”

 

Angulo countered, “I am always well prepared when I step in the ring, On January 30, my opponent will be facing the most difficult test of his young career. I will do everything I can so that he fails. I hope many of my fans and fellow Colombians living in Miami will come out to see me give my all.”
