Tarvis Simms looking to follow in brother's footsteps

Press Release: According to his attorney Kurt Emhoff, Tarvis Simms is a free agent, unbeaten middleweight (20-0-1, 11 KOs)  who is looking to find a new promotional home.  "After watching his twin brother Travis look so devastating in regaining his rightful stature as WBA 154-pound titlist, Tarvis is hungrier than ever to stake his claim in the middleweight division.  All he needs is a top promoter to step forward and help guide him to the title."  Simms last fought on April 9, 2005, when he was held to a controversial draw by Robert Frazier near Frazier's hometown in upstate New York.  Simms is a former National Golden Gloves champion and the twin brother of undefeated Travis Simms, who regained his WBA championship by dissecting Jose Antonio Rivera over the weekend.
