“This is a big change from Oklahoma but one I needed,", Dixo Morrison Lippe-, who started camp a few days ago. “I’m extremely grateful that Jesse is training me. He’s a legend and we clicked immediately. There’s a lot of talent here and I’ll have the chance to spar with some very good fighters. Training and sparring with top fighters will help show me where I’m truly at.”
A dynamic puncher who draws comparisons to his legendary father Tommy Morrison, Lippe-Morrison é 7-0 with all of his victories coming by knockout. Na súa loita máis recente, Lippe-Morrison flattened veteran Richard Dawson in two minutes and one second. Between his heavy hands, potential and familiar surname, the 25-year-old Lippe-Morrison is considered one of the top American heavyweight prospects.

There’s definitely a lot of potential in Trey and I look forward to unleashing it.”
Lippe-Morrison’s promoter is equally as excited about his prized pupil learning from one of the greats.
“I’m happy to see Trey get into a gym with one of the all-time greats,” said Tony Holden of Holden Productions. “The Powerhouse Gym is loaded with heavyweights and Trey’s always needed great sparring. I’d like to personally thank Team Rouse for doing a great job of training Trey and getting him where he is now. Desafortunadamente, Oklahoma didn’t have enough sparring for Trey but the move to California will provide him with the opportunity to work with other great talent.”
