she has what it takes to be a champion. Brittany also adds to
our growing roster of quality fighters, and she will be
defending her titles very soon," said Marshall Kauffman of

"I am very excited about signing with Kings because my Dad and I
were the only ones. I always wanted to get signed by a promoter.
King's was one that I wanted to sign with. I am blessed by this
opportunity. I wasn't expecting to sign with anyone. I was
surprised that Marshall offered me the opportunity. The next
fight will be a big eye opener for me. Beating Mikenna boosted
me up to become a world title contender," said Sims.
