Born without the ability to feel fear and unusually long limbs, Wesley Sims quickly found his niche participating in dangerous "cage fights" for financial and personal gain. Now seeking an even deadlier challenge than the cage of doom, Sims takes a giant step back into Carson's Pit for the second time for what could turn out to be a deadly suicide mission.
Wes and Bob survey the path of destruction and mayhem left in the wake of "The Project," including the recent revelation that Sims had been living under an overpass instead of indoors. Did he use his size and strength to extort tolls and taxes from unsuspecting travelers? Was fighting on the asphalt for money or food ever an option? Wes gives the inside story on his recent hard times and how he battled his way back into society.
There's more to Sims than meets the eye, though, because the young giant has already had a full career worth of highs and lows. Tune in to hear Carson ask Big Wes for his sworn testimony on the new season of the UFC reality show, as well as his responses to some of the following questions:
Is Team Hammer House really just a heavybag at Mark Coleman's house as some have claimed?
What about the recent controversy where Sims appeared to throw a potentially deadly kick at a referee? Will it lead to a rivalry between Sims and Gilbert Yvel?
What was it like growing up as a giant? Was anyone foolish enough to try and test the fighting skills of a young Wes Sims on the streets?
Will "The Project" make good on his past promise to use a pro-wrestling dropkick in an upcoming fight?
What does Wes think of his former foe Tim Sylvia's new mobility needs?
Always unpredictable, always entertaining, always gigantic...always Wes Sims! Don't miss what one of MMA's foremost fighter-philosophers has to say.
In addition to that, Bob Carson provides his unique breakdown of some recent events from around the world of combat sports, including the recent Arena Rumble and Bitetti Combat shows.
