Baltimore Boxers Head to Virginia Beach!

Baltimore boxers Willie "For Real" Williams and Omar "The Machine" Sims are last-minute additions to the "War at the Shore" card at the Virginia Beach Convention Center in Virginia Beach, VA.

Williams (12-5-2, three KO's) will battle Norfolk, VA's Frankie "The Freight Train" Filippone (5-1, two KO's) in what looks like will be a four-round light heavyweight contest. Williams will be trying to break a four-bout winless streak.

Sims (3-2-3, one KO) will battle Kenneth Moody (1-1) of Virginia Beach in another four-rounder in the junior middleweight contest. Sims has not fought since December 11 of last year when he lost a tough six-round unanimous decision to Jamar Freeman in Westminster, MD.

Another local boxer, Maurice "The Freight Train" Byarm , is also on the card, facing Ramon Hayes in a four-round heavyweight battle.
