The fight
This is as close to 50/50 as they come, depending on what you like the most
Scouting Arnold Barboza Jr
You may not win the battle from outside. You may need to get inside and work the body
Scouting Kenneth Sims Jr
Use those sublime boxing skills, don't let him get inside
Why the House picks Kenneth Sims Jr
By fight time, Barboza Jr will probably be a strong favourite. He has the better resume and has only lost to Teofimo Lopez. But Sims has beautiful skills, and what I fear for Barboza Jr is that he tries to box with the master boxer, in which case I think he surrenders his advantages. Neither of these guys is a big puncher, although they can both hurt. This is a real boxers’ chess match, and I’m gonna go with the Chicago man. I believe he may rise to the occasion, outwork, and ultimately outpoint Californian Barboza Jr.
