Professional Career[]
Tim Simms (born December 2nd, 1961) was born and raised in Melbourne, Australia. He competed in the Heavyweight Division for several years but was never able to capture the Heavyweight Championship. The closest Simms ever got to the title was when he fought rising star Tommy Gunn, If Simms was able to win the fight, it would have propelled him into a title shot, but unfortunately for Simms, he was knocked out by Gunn.
During his fighting years, Simms was on a break because he was wounded but as soon he got well again, he use to love using a squat heavy frame with severe punches and had a random way of getting back in fights, just when opponents were about to beat him, he usually managed to get back at them.[2]
