MIAMI, Oklahoma. (Siete. 24, 2016) – On a night when undefeated heavyweight Trey Lippe Morrison won his television debut and Ivan "The Beast" Baranchyk y Ivan "El Volk" Golub permanecido invicto, peso semipesado Radivoje "Hot Rod" Kalajdzic regained his winning ways by registering a fifth-round knockout over previously unbeaten Travis Peterkin en el evento principal de una ShoBox: La Nueva Generación quadrupleheader vivir TIEMPO DE LA FUNCION Viernes desde Buffalo Run Casino en Miami, Oklahoma.
Entrando ShoBox debut and first start since suffering his lone defeat on a disputed decision to Marcus Browne, a motivated Kalajdzic (22-1, 15 KOs) de St. Petersburgo, Fla., dropped Peterkin (16-1-1, 7 KOs), of the Brownsville section of Brooklyn, N.Y., two times in the fifth before the fight was stopped at 1:32.
Other televised results: Baranchyk (12-0, 10 KOs), de Brooklyn, N.Y., took a 10-round unanimous decision over Wang Zhimin (7-1, 3 KOs, 7-1 WSB), de Nutley, N.J. a través de Ningbo, China, en el ShoBox co-estelar; immensely popular local favorite and son of the late former world heavyweight champion, Tommy "El Duque" Morrison, de peso pesado Trey Lippe Morrison (12-0, 12 KOs) demolished previously unbeaten Ed Latimore (13-1, 7 KOs), de Pittsburgh, Pa., Hacer un 2:19, first-round TKO; and Ukrainian welterweight Golub (13-0, 11 KOs, 5-0 WSB), de Brooklyn, registered a third-round knockout over James Stevenson(23-3, 16 KOs), de Baltimore, Maryland.
Kalajdzic overwhelmed Peterkin with consistent aggression, superior fighting spirit and better power. Él aterrizó 45 por ciento de sus tiros de la energía, Incluyendo 60 percent in the final round. Más, dirigió 37-7 En Conecta corporales.
“The one-dimensional nature of Travis Peterkin cost him big time because he had no answer for Hot Rod’s right hand, and when he threw his own power shots they were ineffective,'' ShoBox analista experto Steve Farhood dijo después. “He was exposed esta noche, and Kalajdzic rejuvenated his career after the loss with Marcus Browne.”
A 6-foot-2 native of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kalajdzic dropped Peterkin the first time with a right-left combination and finished him with a right-left-right combination. Peterkin fell heavily in a neutral corner, prompting the referee to stop it.
“He was a little bit awkward so it took me a little bit to find my range but once I did and I got into a rhythm, I knew he wasn’t going to last,’’ Kalajdzic said. “We have been working on staying patient and finding that range and it showed esta noche.
“I wanted to make a statement in this fight and I did. I want the biggest names in the light heavyweight division, but before that I want Marcus Browne again. That is unfinished business for me. If he really thinks he won the fight then let’s do it again. We could fight next week. I’m ready.’’
Baranchyk, despite getting cut for the first time in his career (over his left eye in the fifth), ganó con las puntuaciones 100-90 dos veces y 99-91. No hubo caídas.
The rounds, particularly in the fight’s second half, were competitive. Both fighters landed a high percentage of power shots, 44 percent for Baranchyk, 41 percent for Zhimin, but the difference was that Baranchyk was busier, crisper and physically stronger.
Going more than four rounds for the first time, he answered questions about his late-round stamina and feels he is now ready to step up again.
“The 140-pound division is loaded with talent,’’ Dijo Baranchyk. “There are tons of fighters I would love to fight, but there are two guys in particular I’d like to fight next: Maurice Hooker and Abel Ramos. Hooker is with Roc Nation and is above me in the ratings. He’s undefeated and this would be a great fight to prove I’m one of the best up-and-coming guys in this division. I’d love Ramos to fight Ramos too. We are both promoted by DBE and I have heard he called me out. He’s a come forward guy and those are the type of fights I like and that make for great TV.
“I love the fans here in Miami and I love fighting on ShoBox. This was my first time going 10 rounds and I feel great. Of course I would have liked to get the knockout because I always want to put on a spectacular show, pero esta fue una gran experiencia de aprendizaje para mí. He was an extremely tough opponent and I was surprised he was able to take so many big shots. We have been working on being patient and boxing and I was able to show that esta noche.''
Wang, who gave his best and never allowed Baranchyk to relax, dicho, “I felt a little tight and I couldn’t get my punches off like I wanted to. He was a little too big for me.’’
In a performance that lit up the arena, Lippe Morrison dropped Latimore two times and was on the verge of knocking him down again when the referee stepped in and halted matters at 2:19. Morrison decked Latimore the first time with a right hand midway through the first. Momentos después, Latimore went down again from two rights and a left hook. After a series of shots, the referee stopped it.
“You know I have to watch the fight, but I think I did alright,’’ said Morrison after what was supposed to be the most dangerous assignment of his career. “I know I have to be patient and work behind my jab and just take the opening that I see – patiently. Being patient is something I’ve really been working on. I really felt my patience this time.
“I didn’t expect it to end this quick. I knew it might, but I didn’t plan on it. It felt good to drop a guy with my left hand. I never had the accuracy or quickness with the left that I do know. I now feel that I am equally adept with both hands. My left is like my right.
“To win a fight like this is definitely a relief. I was nervous about the fight, but not about fighting on TV. This was supposed to be my toughest fight on paper and I think I did well.
“I feel I may have opened some eyes, but that’s in large part to Freddie Roach. I feel I’m improving thanks to Freddie. I’m throwing quicker, snappier punches and the coordination between my footwork with my hands is way better. All that is because of Freddie.
“I wasn’t going for the KO but I’m glad it happened. I could not have done it without Freddie, eso es seguro. I’ll be going back to California in a week and then right to the gym.”
The knockout was Lippe Morrison’s ninth in the first round. He also has two second-round knockouts and one fourth-round KO in a career that began in February 2014.
“We want to see more of Trey Lippe Morrison,'' Dijo Farhood. “Let’s let Freddie Roach to do a little bit more of work with him. He had a tremendous pressure on him esta noche, but he did fantastically and he responded very well. He made a big step up in class esta noche and couldn’t have produced a better result: a first-round knockout.”
After a competitive, fast-paced first round, Golub took over as Stevenson appeared to tire. A picturesque right hook to the chin dropped and staggered Stevenson, who still wobbly, got up by the count of five, but Golub continued his two-fisted assault, entregado más 20 unanswered punches and the referee stopped it.
“To me the guy that stole the show was Golub,"Dijo Farhood. “We keep thinking of him as a boxer but he showed tremendous power esta noche. He knocked out a very sturdy opponent in Stevenson and Baranchyk will benefit tremendously by going 10 rondas. He showed a lot by throwing as many punches as he did late in the fight against an opponent who simply wouldn’t be hurt.’’
“I could see from the first round that he was leaving himself wide open when he was coming in,’’ said Golub after his second ShoBox Empezar. “I knew it was only a matter of time until I caught him with something really big and I would get him out of there. I’m happy with the performance but know I still have a lot to improve on. Our game plan was to be patient and box and let him come to us. I’m looking forward to getting back in there soon and continuing to climb the ranks of the welterweight division.’’

Radivoje Kalajdzic
“Esta es mi segunda pelea a 10 asaltos y es contra otro zurdo invicto de Nueva York. Estoy ansioso por esta pelea y estoy ansioso por mirar hacia adelante..
“Estaba muy molesto después de mi última pelea [una controvertida derrota por decisión ante el invicto Marcus Browne]. No estaba realmente enojado conmigo mismo o con mi equipo; fue principalmente el árbitro. Entonces, luego cuando vi la reacción de los fans, quien abucheó totalmente la decisión, incluso se quitaron las camisetas de Marcus Browne, No me sentí tan mal.
"El Viernes Quiero entrar y verme genial y con suerte detener a este tipo.. Quiero verme mejor y más limpio que contra Browne.. Luché bien contra Browne, pero debería haber usado mi jab más y no permitir que me agarrara y abrazara tanto.
"Estaba buscando demasiado para aterrizar mi derecha. Sé que necesito hacerlo mejor para configurarlo golpeando primero. Y golpeando en racimos.
"Una gran victoria Viernes no eliminará el aguijón general de mi última pelea; nada puede borrar el resultado. Pero como Browne no quiere darme una revancha, No voy a perseguirlo solo. Tengo que seguir adelante.
“Contra Peterkin, Quiero mantenerlo simple - jab, muévete y usa la mano derecha. Necesito mantenerlo al final de mis golpes. Parece que viene hacia ti pero yo voy a atacarlo., demasiado, de una manera inteligente. Quiero intentar entrar, sofocarlo. Nunca tuve esa oportunidad contra Browne debido a toda la tenencia.
"Peterkin está invicto, duradero y viene a ganar. Espero una pelea muy dura. Pero todo va según lo planeado. Tuve alrededor de seis meses de preparación. Los errores que cometí en mi última pelea han sido corregidos.. No volverán a suceder. Tengo la oportunidad en esta pelea de borrar todos los amargos recuerdos de mi última pelea ".
TRAVIS Peterkin
"Haciendo 175 libras está bien. Puedo hacer el peso sin problema. Entonces el peso no es un problema. Si hubiera una categoría de peso en 185, Probablemente estaría en eso, pero 175 está bien. Estoy listo.
"Vi 'Hot Rod' de cerca contra Browne. Definitivamente fue una buena pelea. Siento que Marcus podría haber ganado fácilmente si hubiera terminado el trabajo en algunas de las rondas.. Si se queda afuera gana fácilmente, pero quería dejar un punto entrando.
"Ahora 'Hot Rod' me atrapa, y esta es una tremenda oportunidad para mi. Es un buen peleador y debería tener cero en sus derrotas.. Tiene poder y es un contragolpeador decente.. Pero nos hemos preparado para él. Venimos a ganar, caja o pelea. Este ha sido uno de mis mejores campamentos en mucho tiempo.. Confío en una victoria.
"La clave es controlar lo que sucede en el ring, se inteligente y escucha mi rincón. Siento que esta es definitivamente la pelea más difícil para mí., y para el, demasiado.
"Estoy deseando que llegue la pelea y la oportunidad de hacerme un nombre en 175. Ha sido un largo viaje, pero si puedo ser yo mismo y hacer lo que vine a hacer, Estaré bien.''
Oy BARANCHYK
“Esto es como un segundo hogar para mí, peleando en miami. Me gusta la gente. Parece que les agrado. Viernes debería ser una noche emocionante para todos.
"Mis dos últimas peleas terminaron rápidamente, pero siempre entreno y planeo ir 10 rondas. Nunca trato de nocaut en una ronda. Espero con ansias el momento en que pueda mostrar un poco más de mis habilidades de boxeo y en general.. Tengo paciencia.
“Creo que mi oponente es muy bueno y tiene mucha experiencia. Es mejor que los dos últimos luchadores con los que luché. Siento que esta pelea podría durar algunas rondas. Pero tengo poder, así que veremos.
“Trabajo muy duro en el gimnasio. Yo entreno 10 rondas todos los días. Pude entrenar algunas rondas con Danny García para esta pelea.. Entrenar con un campeón mundial como él fue una tremenda experiencia de aprendizaje y me ayudó mucho.. Espero que algo de esto se vea el viernes.''
WANG ZHIMIN
“Quiero agradecer a todos por esta oportunidad de luchar. Estoy preparado para todo. Mi oponente es un boxeador muy experimentado con buena reputación.. Este es definitivamente un paso adelante y mi mayor pelea..
"Puedo prometerte una cosa: Montaremos un espectáculo emocionante para ti.
“Mi objetivo es, en última instancia, luchar por un título mundial. Se tarda mucho tiempo, paciencia y trabajo dentro del gimnasio.
"Soy conocido por mi agresividad, pero trabajo constantemente en el boxeo más. Siento que he mejorado mucho desde que era aficionado.
"Así que estoy listo para esta pelea. Puede que sea un gran golpeador, pero no miro sus números. Este es un emparejamiento sólido, una lucha en la encrucijada y una buena oportunidad para los dos ".
TREY LIPPE MORRISON
"Esta es una verdadera, un paso significativo para mí, pero tengo que abordarlo como siempre lo hago.
"Mudarse a Hollywood [Calif.] fue un gran cambio para mi, pero significaba que podía entrenar con Freddie Roach. Aumentó mi confianza solo por el hecho de que accedió a aceptarme. Entonces debe haber visto algo.
"Hay tantas cosas en las que trabajamos: generalato anillo, juego de piernas, cosas para buscar, cosas para evitar.
"Esta es una lucha dura para los dos, una prueba peligrosa. Latimore es definitivamente mi oponente más duro hasta ahora.
“Sé que mucha gente está interesada en verme y ver cómo lo hago gracias a mi papá. Pero a medida que avanzo, verán que soy mi propia persona.
“Pelear aquí de nuevo en Buffalo Run siempre es emocionante, pero un anillo es un anillo; no hay ventaja de local. Ciertamente aprecio el apoyo de los fans, pero no puedo pensar en eso..
"Uno de estos días pelearé con alguien que pueda disparar. Podría ser Latimore, pero si pasa, Voy a estar listo para ello. En cuanto a que yo tome un trago, Me han sacudido en el sparring pero no en una pelea en vivo..
“Herirme la mano derecha en mi última pelea fue una verdadera bendición. Sabía que siempre había tenido poder, pero ahora tengo velocidad y precisión para acompañarlo.. Mi mano no me ha dado ningún problema en el entrenamiento.. Entonces no lo pienso. Si lo lastimo de nuevo, Me ocuparé de eso y seguiré luchando ".
FREDDIE ROACH, Entrenador de Morrison
"Se suponía que debía estar en Filipinas, pero soy muy cercano a Manny Pacquiao y le dije, 'Escuchar, Manny, Voy a llegar una semana tarde porque tengo una gran pelea con Trey.,' y él dijo, Te veré en una semana. Obtén la victoria ".
"Somos un 100 ciento listo. Tenemos grandes compañeros de entrenamiento. Hemos hecho un gran trabajo y sé que viene de una mano rota y no ha peleado en un tiempo., pero su fortalecimiento y acondicionamiento va muy bien. Esta será una gran pelea y espero que esté en su mejor momento.. [Mirando a Ed Latimore] Vas a sentir su poder.
"Trey tiene muy buen poder y romperse la mano lo ayudó. Tenemos que desarrollar ambas manos y ahora tiene poder de nocaut en ambas manos..
“Ed Latimore es un oponente muy difícil, pero creo que Trey le ganará ".
ED LATIMORE
“Mi objetivo es estar totalmente tranquilo, relajado y en control. No es una cosa física o mental.
"Siento que he recorrido un largo camino y estoy mejorando todo el tiempo. Hubo momentos en los que pensaba demasiado en el ring, pero no más. Trabajo en la técnica todos los días.; mi ética de trabajo es impecable.
"Me he convertido en un mejor estudiante de boxeo. Cuando empecé a mirar, Yo creí que era aburrido. Entonces aprendí a mirar, y comencé a notar las cosas sutiles que sucedían. Ahora sé lo que estoy mirando cuando veo películas y veo cosas totalmente diferentes a las que veía antes.. Ahora se que hacer con lo que aprendo.
"Puedo ser pequeño para un peso pesado, pero nunca seré uno de esos grandes, así que no pongo mucho énfasis en el tamaño".. Si se puede luchar, se puede luchar. Trabajo en el desarrollo de habilidades. El poder de golpe proviene de la técnica y la repetición., no siempre por el tamaño.
"Espero una buena pelea. Tengo que mantener la compostura. A Morrison le gusta atacarte directamente, pero no planeo dejar que se acerque a mí como lo hizo con sus otros oponentes.. Tengo algo que planeo hacer que le dará algo en qué pensar..
"Pelear con él es enorme para mí. Su nombre significa mucho. Es el tipo más duro con el que he peleado. Pero no pienso en mis emociones y peleas en su ciudad natal. Sabíamos en lo que nos estábamos metiendo y no hay nada que podamos hacer al respecto. Hay cosas que escapan a tu control.
"Todavia estoy en la escuela, especializándose en física, pero me tomé un semestre libre. Entonces, esta oportunidad llego. De ninguna manera podría hacer ambas cosas ahora mismo. Disfruto de lo lejos que he llegado en el boxeo. Creo que el trabajo duro está dando sus frutos.
"Estoy seguro de que ganaré Viernes. Va a ser genial ".
IVAN GOLUB
"He estado trabajando principalmente en mi juego interior y estableciendo mis golpes últimamente. Sé que Stevenson es un buen boxeador, un tipo hábil que sabe qué hacer con. Tengo que intentar ser paciente, trabajar el jab, trabajar el cuerpo y poner presión.
“En los aficionados se trataba más de puntos. Ganar estuvo bien con los puntos, pero en EE. UU.. Necesitas más que eso.

La Nueva Generación: Lippe-Morrison ready for ShoBox debut
Miami, OKAY (Septiembre 22, 2016) – As the son of popular former heavyweight champion Tommy Morrison, Trey Lippe-Morrison’s name alone generates attention.
A quick glance at the Oklahoman’s record shows that all 11 of his victories came by knockout, 10 inside of two rounds. Those who dug deeper into Lippe-Morrison’s career will see that he’s trained by legendary Freddie Roach at Wildcard Boxing Club in Los Angeles, TAL COMO. On the contrary, his critics note that his name alone generated the buzz rather than his knockouts and many second generation boxers didn’t meet expectations.
El Viernes noche en el Buffalo Run Casino, Lippe-Morrison looks to make his TV debut a successful one when he battles fellow unbeaten Ed “Black Magic” Latimore. The bout opens a quadrupleheader on Shobox: The New Generation and is scheduled for 6 rondas. Latimore, 13-0 (7 Nocáuts), owns amateur wins over former heavyweight champion Charles Martin and 2012 US Olympian Dominic Breazeale. The Pittsburgh, PA native will be Lippe-Morrison’s toughest test to date and he believes the heavy interest in this fight will only elevate his career when he emerges victorious.
“This is a difficult fight for Trey,"Dijo Tony Holden, Lippe-Morrison’s promoter. “Latimore is undefeated and had a good amateur background. He and his team believe this fight will opens doors for him. The interest in this fight is extremely high not just because of whom Trey is but also since there are two unbeaten American heavyweight squaring off early in their careers. The winner is definitely worthy of being considered a top up and coming heavyweight.”
Lippe-Morrison is a member of Holden Productions’ “Four State Franchise” and fought 9 de su 11 fights at the Buffalo Run Casino, a venue he’s helped sell out multiple times. With the hometown advantage and flawless start to his pro career, Lippe-Morrison knows there will be pressure on him but believes he’s ready to handle it.
“There is a little bit of added pressure,” the 26-year-old said of fighting on TV. “There are of course the people that want to see me on the same level at my father but some of it is brought on by me. My team and I believe I’m ready for this. I’ve been getting a lot better and learning every day under Freddie Roach. Freddie says I’m prepared for the step up and he has full confidence in me. Now I’ve got to go out and perform.”
The quadrupleheader airs live on Showtime at 10 PM ET and also features Ivan “The Volk” Golub against James “Keep em’ Sleepin” Stevenson, Ivan “The Beast” Baranchyk vs Zhimin Wang and Radivoje “Hot Rod” Kalajdzic taking on “Notorious” Travis Peterkin.

NUEVA YORK (Siete. 21, 2016) - Trey Lippe Morrison es 11-0 con 11 nocauts. He is the son of the late former world heavyweight championTommy "El Duque" Morrison. A Grove, Oklahoma., nativo, Trey resides in Hollywood, Calif., and is trained by Freddie Roach en Wild Card Gym.
Este Viernes, Siete. 23, Morrison makes his eagerly awaited television debut when he faces fellow unbeaten and Roc Nation prospect Ed Latimore (13-0, 7 KOs), de Pittsburgh, Pa., in the second bout of a ShoBox: La Nueva Generación quadrupleheader vivir TIEMPO DE LA FUNCION (10 p.m. Y/PT, en diferido en la Costa Oeste) desde Buffalo Run Casino en Miami, Oklahoma.
Morrison, quien cumple 27 en Siete. 27, has recorded eight first-round knockouts, two second-round knockouts and one fourth-round KO in a career that began in February 2014. He bears a striking resemblance to his late father facially, physique-wise and with his fighting style, wears red, white and blue trunks with “TOMMY” written across the belt. He has fought all but one of his fights in Oklahoma; this is his 10º start at Buffalo Run.
A popular member of Holden’s Four State Franchise stable, the 6-foot-2 Morrison is fighting for the first time since he underwent surgery on his right tendon from an injury suffered in his most recent bout, a fourth-round TKO over Thomas Hawkins último Jan. 23.
Below is what Morrison and Roach said about Trey’s fight against LatimoreViernes, his up-and-coming career, life outside the ring, remembrances of his father, working with Freddie and more:
“I’m going to approach this fight against Latimore just the same way I approached my first 11 peleas,’’ said Morrison ahead of the scheduled six-round bout. “I’ve gained a lot of confidence and a lot of new skills, and I’m just honored to be able to showcase them. Being on SHOWTIME is just a huge bonus.”
Morrison’s thoughts on Ed Latimore …
“I’ve watched a little bit of video. He’s really similar to me. The way he bobs his head all the time and is a real aggressive fighter and always comes forward. It’s almost like I’m fighting a clone of myself. He kind of has that Mike Tyson style, and that’s what I expect to see. If he doesn’t come at me that way, then I’ll have to have a game plan for something else.”
Is Latimore your toughest fight to date? ...
“Oh, sí. Seguro. 100 por ciento. His record says it all [13-0, 7 KOs]. He’s athletic. From just what I’ve seen of his past fights, he would be the toughest guy I’ve fought so far.”
On the injury suffered in his last fight …
“I feel like it is 100 percent healed. It was kind of a freak accident. I threw an uppercut and it hit him in the hard part of his head. Since I’ve been able to put my glove on it, it hasn’t been a problem.”
What are the keys to this fight? ...
“I think you always find the keys within the first couple rounds of the fight. That’s when you figure someone out. I figure I’m just going to be patient, and wait for my shot and when it comes, take it.”
Tommy was known as a left-hooker, you’re known for a strong right hand? Did you work more on your left when you were sidelined? ...
“Oh, sí. Tremendously. I would say me being hurt was a blessing. I think it helped me more than it hurt me. I was really able to develop and sharpen my left hand. So right now I feel like my left hand is just as lethal as my right. I’m confident I can now do everything with my left that I can with my right. I was more of a right-handed fighter before because my left hand wasn’t as developed yet. My timing and my speed wasn’t quite there with my left before, but now I’m good with both.”
On working with Freddie Roach…
“I’ve been working with Freddie for about a year now. I’m living in West Hollywood; right smack dab in the middle of all the craziness. But I stay away from all of it. I’m more of a hermit. Si no estoy entrenando, I’m at home. I really don’t go out much. I really just like being alone at times and being at my place. I don’t have many hobbies. I would say I’m a nerd. I like to play video games with my friends online.”
How did you end up with Freddie?
“I originally moved out here to train with Jesse Reid. He decided he wanted to make a move to Las Vegas, and that just wasn’t a move my promoter, De Tony Holden, and I were going to make. Since I was already here, Tony had a lunch with Freddie who agreed to look at me. So I had a private session with him and after that he said he’d be willing to work with me.”
How much have you learned under Freddie’s watchful eye? …
“I’ve learned so much — probably everything. And anything I was good at before, he’s sharpened it. I’d probably give him full credit for everything. The guys I’ve sparred with have also taught me a lot. It’s really helped me in every way possible.”
Did you play sports in high school? ...
“I played football, basketball and track. I played tight end and defensive end in football and I ran the hurdles and threw the shot and disc. I played four years of college football at the University of Central Arkansas. I played defensive end there. I had a couple of pro teams looking at me, but I screwed up my senior year and ended getting kicked off the team. I made some bad decisions, just being a dumb college kid, and that led to it. When boxing came up, it was like a second chance for me.
“I wasn’t ready for my athletic career to be over. Football ended for me because I made bad decisions. I needed to be told that I wasn’t good enough for me to move on and go out and get a regular job. Around the same time that happened, my dad passed away. My mom told me that Tony Holden had a casino in the next town from where I went to high school. I had never met him before but we went out and had a great time talking about my dad. So I popped the question to him and asked if he’d help me get into boxing. He said absolutely not. I told him I was going to give it a shot because I wasn’t able to give up athletics. He called me back Tres días después."
Do you feel pressure being the son of Tommy Morrison? …
"Sí. I think there’s a lot of pressure on me to do well, and I think that really weighed on me the first couple of fights. That’s always going to be there. No matter who I fight, or how good I do, they are always going to compare me to my dad. I just have to deal with it. There definitely is pressure, but I can deal with it better now.
“When I first started, people were comparing my first fight ever with how my dad ended his career…to his best fight. So obviously I wasn’t going to match up that way. I knew that I’d get better and that one day I’d get there.”
How would you describe your relationship with your father? ...
“I’d say our relationship was awesome. We were great friends. Ya sabes, our time got cut short, and we didn’t get to spend a lot of time together. But the time we did have was amazing. And we really cherished it.”
Would you think your dad would be proud of you today, following in his footsteps?
“I think he would be proud of me. I wish he was here because the things he would say would help me a lot. I really do think he’d be proud.”
How much has your promoter Tony Holden meant to you?
“I wouldn’t be where I’m at without him. I can’t even put it into words. Honestamente, if I would have started boxing without him, no one would know who I was. Everything I have in boxing, is because of him. I met him in October of 2013, two or three months before I got into boxing.”
Freddie Roach, a seven-time Boxing Writers Association of America Trainer of the Year and 2012 inductee into the International Boxing Hall of Fame, will be in Morrison’s corner Viernes en Miami. He said Trey is dedicated, a joy to work with and has continued to improve. But he remains a work in progress.
“Trey’s a very nice person, a simple guy, real polite like most boxers.’’.
“He inherited his father’s punch. Es un gran golpeador. He’s learned how to box and is getting better every day. He tries hard. I like the way he’s progressing. He holds his own with some of the veteran guys here at the gym and is doing very well.
“Once he learns to box a little more, he’s going to make a lot more noise in the division. My thoughts on the heavyweights right now is that it is not all that strong of a division. [Antonio] Joshua may be the best, and there are a couple other big names. But I think the division is mostly wide open for guys who have heart and balls and are ready to take it the distance. Trey’s that kind of kid.’’
It was Roach who wanted this fight. “His manager asked me if he was ready and I said he was 100 ciento listo. Latimore is his toughest fight, but it’s time to step up.’’
En Viernes de ShoBox evento principal, una vez derrotado Radivoje Kalajdzic (21-1, 14 KOs), de St. Petersburgo, Fla. will try and resume his winning ways when he meets undefeated Travis Peterkin (16-0-1, 7 KOs), de Brooklyn, N.Y. en una chatarra de peso semipesado de 10 rondas.

Kalajdzic is clamoring for a rematch with the world-ranked Browne, but he can’t overlook the strong, athletic Peterkin, who is coming off a shutout decision over Larry Pryor último Marzo 30 and is looking for a breakout performance.
En el ShoBox co-estelar, super lightweight powerhouse Ivan "The Beast" Baranchyk (11-0, 10 KOs), de Brooklyn, N.Y., faces Roc Nation prospect’s Wang Zhimin (7-0, 3 KOs, 7-1 WSB), de Nutley, N.J. a través de Ningbo, China, in a 10-rounder for the vacant USBA 140-pound title.

Kalajdzic (21-1, 14 KOs), a 6-foot-2 native of Bosnia and Herzegovina, turned pro in June 2011. Ganó su primera 21 fights before losing to Browne in a bout in which many felt he won easily. Browne (18-0) landed an occasional hard shot, but Kalajdzic seemed to control the fight with his power and awkward style. Both boxers hit the deck, Kalajdzic (from what appeared to be a slip) en el primero, Browne (clearly) in the sixth from a right hand to the head. Receiving credit for a knockdown in which no punch appeared to connect was the difference, and the fans booed when the scores of 76-75, 76-74 y 74-76 were announced.
“I am really excited about this fight and that I am on television again fighting another undefeated southpaw,"Dijo Kalajdzic. “I am continuing where I left off with training camp from my previous fight since it’s another southpaw, so I will be more than prepared. Esperemos, Peterkin comes to fight and not hug like my last opponent did so we can give the fans a good fight.”
Peterkin (16-0-1, 7 KOs) would still have an unblemished record if not for losing two points in an eight-round majority draw with 2008 Olímpico Dominicano Lenin Castillo (12-0) en agosto. 1, 2015 Barclays Center. Peterkin had a point deducted in the fourth for hitting after the break and in the fifth for a low blow. Las puntuaciones fueron 76-74 y 75-75 dos veces.
Despite the draw in his outing before last, Peterkin considered this the most gratifying moment of his life. Desde 2012-14, he stocked and served food in the suites at Barclays. In his most recent effort, Peterkin easily outpointed Pryor by the scores of 80-72 three times in New York. This will be Peterkin’s first fight outside of his home state.
A good boxer with excellent technique, Peterkin was introduced to boxing by his father, Bernard, un 1987 heavyweight Golden Gloves semifinalist, en 2001. Continuó 95-7 en los aficionados; after winning the 2010 Guantes de oro de Nueva York, he went pro in January 2011.
“I was ringside at Hot Rod’s last fight. Lo respeto, but I saw what his flaws are and will exploit them,” said Peterkin. “I am anticipating a war. Brooklyn is coming to Oklahoma and I will not disappoint. En Siete. 23, greatness beckons.”
Baranchyk, an offensive-minded fighting machine, packs outstanding power in both hands. He’s making his third appearance on ShoBox and third in a row at Buffalo Run. His otherShoBox aperturas, both first-round knockouts versus undefeated opponents, totaled a combined2:49.
The highly regarded, all-action Baranchyk registered a brutal, two-punch, 21-second stoppage over Nicholas Givhan (16-0-1) último Marzo 25 en ShoBox at Buffalo Run. He scored a 2:28, nocaut en el primer asalto sobre Shadi Shehadeh (9-0-2) en su ShoBox debut last Diciembre. 11 en Houston, Texas.
Baranchyk was born in Minsk, Byelorussia and lives in Brooklyn. He’s won eight straight by knockout, including a third-round TKO over previously undefeated Joaquim "Eliseo” Cruz (9-0-1) último Junio 25 at Buffalo Run. Dominant with his speed and power from the outset, Baranchyk dropped Cruz in the second. Cruz’s corner threw in the towel at 1:07 de la tercera.
Todos 10 of the 5-foot-7, 23-year-old Baranchyk’s knockouts have come inside three full rounds, including six in the first. He’s fought 22 rounds in an 11-fight career. The only time he went the distance was in his third fight, a four-rounder in December 2014. Baranchyk, a former European amateur standout, turned pro in June ‘14 and relocated to the United States a few months later.
“I couldn’t be more excited about returning to ShoBox,"Dijo Baranchyk. “Zhimin is a very skilled fighter and he will be my toughest opponent yet. Sin embargo, I intend on ending this bout in devastating fashion. I guarantee you will see Zhimin on his back when the fight is over. I am looking to send a message to the rest of the junior welterweight division that I am someone to be feared.”
Zhimin, 30, turned pro in November 2010 and fought eight times in the WSB through 2011. After a three-year layoff, he relocated to the U.S. and has gone 7-0. He’s coming off an eight-round decision over Matthew Doherty último Junio 11. Zhimin had great success in the WSB, winning the gold in 2011 in his native China, defeating Yerzhan Mussafirov of Kazakhstan in the tightly contested lightweight final. Antes de eso, he reached the final in the Chinese National Boxing Championship in 2010, where he received a silver medal. En 2012, ganó otra medalla de plata, esta vez en el Concurso Internacional de Boxeo Erdos.
“It’s an honor for me to be a part of this great event,” said Zhimin. “I want to thank the promoters, my team and everyone who gave me this opportunity. My goal is to get that belt. I know it’s a process full of challenges, but I am not afraid of what lies ahead. I know that I will make it. I have faith in myself. I will do whatever I can to prepare myself for this title showdown and give the fans my best performance and bring home the belt.”
Golub, a 27-year-old who, at 6-feet, is tall for a welterweight, turned pro as a middleweight in November 2012. At the outset of his career, él fue 5-0 in the WSB. He’s gone 12-0 desde, ganadora 10 por nocaut, including his last six in a row, the last three as a welterweight.
En su ShoBox debut, he touched the canvas for the first time in his career, but bounced back to blast out Marlon Aguas with a series of combinations in the closing seconds of the sixth. He won by TKO.
Golub, a southpaw who’s coming off a second-round TKO over Ernesto Ortiz último Julio 21, was an outstanding amateur. Continuó 270-32 como aficionado, was a five-time national champion in Ukraine and won bronze at the 2009 Campeonato Mundial Amateur.
“Stevenson has a lot of experience and I am preparing for a very tough fight,” said Golub. “He is a guy that likes to sit on his punches and trade, which is exactly what I want. Once he feels my power, he is going to be in trouble. This will be an exciting fight for as long as it lasts.”
Stevenson is making his ShoBox debut. Un profesional desde 2008, he won his first 21 scraps until losing by ninth-round TKO to then-undefeated Sammy Vasquez en agosto. 8, 2014. The fight was competitive for five rounds before Vasquez took over. Stevenson went down in the ninth.
El 5 pies 11, 33-year-old Stevenson has won two-of-three since, incluyendo un nocaut técnico en el quinto asalto sobre Kevin Womack último Mayo 14 en su primera pelea en 13 meses. A hard-hitting boxer-puncher, Stevenson has feasted on modest opposition and is still seeking a signature victory.
Stevenson has produced a respectable record in spite of his career getting sidetracked by a series of setbacks and tragedies. En 2011, during a routine jog, a dog viciously attacked him, requiring Stevenson to get more than 20 stitches. Poco después, his father James Stevenson Sr. falleció, as did his mother-in-law.
“I appreciate the opportunity,” said Stevenson. “But they made a big mistake giving me the time to get ready for this fight. I’m training real hard and I’m coming to make a statement. I’m not scared of Golub and I promise it won’t go the distance. I’m putting him to sleep.”
Morrison has registered eight first-round knockouts, two second-round knockouts and one fourth-round KO in a career that began in February 2014. Morrison, who bears a striking resemblance to his late father facially, physique-wise and with his fighting style, turns 27 enSiete. 27. He’s fought all but one of his fights in Oklahoma; this is his 10º start at Buffalo Run.
A popular member of Holden’s Four State Franchise stable, the 6-foot-2 Morrison is fighting for the first time since he underwent surgery on his right tendon from an injury suffered in his most recent bout, a fourth-round TKO over Thomas Hawkins último Jan. 23.
“I have worked so hard to get to this point and now this is my chance to show the world who I am. I want to thank SHOWTIME for the opportunity,” said Morrison. “Latimore is a huge step up in class for me, but I am ready for it. Once I hear those Oklahoma fans and feel the energy inside the arena, I flip a switch and it’s go-time. This is going to be my coming-out party.”
Latimore, who majored in physics in college, is a boxer-puncher expected to give Morrison his toughest test. Latimore is making his ShoBox debut and fourth start this year. He’s coming off an eight-round split decision over Juan Goode último Julio 15.
El 6-pies-1, 31-year-old Latimore turned pro in January 2013. Como amateur, he won the Pennsylvania Golden Gloves, National PAL and Ringside Championships, and was victorious over 2012 Olímpico Dominic Breazeale and former IBF Heavyweight Champion Charles Martin.
“Morrison will be a real test for me,” said Latimore. “It’s never easy to fight someone in their backyard. I just fought in my hometown of Pittsburgh so I know the feeling coming into it and the momentum on fight night. I am looking forward to putting on a good show for all the fans in Oklahoma and those watching on ShoBox."

Lippe-Morrison to make TV debut against Latimore September 23
Tulsa, OKAY (Agosto 27, 2016) – Heavyweight sensation Trey Lippe-Morrison makes his highly anticipated TV debut when he faces fellow unbeaten Ed Latimore as part of a quadruple header on ShoBox: La Nueva Generación Viernes, Septiembre 23 en 10 pm ET live from the Buffalo Run Casino in Miami, OKAY.
Living and fighting out of Tulsa, OKAY, Lippe-Morrison’s 11-0 con todas sus victorias por nocaut. A member of Holden Productions’ Four State Franchise, the 26-year-old power punching phenom has been out of the ring since January after suffering a hand injury. Under the watchful eye of 7-time BWAA Trainer of the Year Freddie Roach, Lippe-Morrison’s working hard daily towards his goal to become the heavyweight champion of the world like his late father Tommy.
Latimore, 13-0 (7 Nocáuts), is without question the toughest opponent of Lippe-Morrison’s career. Fighting out of the Steel City Pittsburgh, Pensilvania, Latimore is fresh off a Julio 15 victory over Juan Goode. Known by his moniker “Black Magic,” Latimore is a former Pennsylvania Golden Gloves, National PAL and Ringside Champion. He also owns amateur victories over 2012 Olympian Dominic Breazeale and former IBF heavyweight kingpin Charles Martin.
"This is a definite step up for Trey but these are the kinds of opponents we need to be fighting on TV,” said Lippe-Morrison’s promoter Tony Holden. “Trey has improved his boxing ability tremendously under Freddie Roach and has dynamic power. Al mismo tiempo, Latimore is here to spoil the party and was a very good amateur prior to his current run as an unbeaten professional. The fans at the Buffalo Run, where Trey is a favorite, and everybody watching on Showtime are in for exciting fight between two unbeaten heavyweights on the way up, which is a rarity these days.”
Lippe-Morrison and Latimore meet over six rounds.
Brooklyn-based Russian Ivan “The Beast” Baranchyk, 11-0 (10 Nocáuts), puts his perfect record on the line against an opponent to be named in a ten round junior welterweight bout. Baranchyk, who scored back to back first round knockouts on ShoBox at the Buffalo Run, is the newest member of the Four State Franchise.
In a ten round light heavyweight affair, “Notorious” Travis Peterkin, 16-0-1 (7 Nocáuts), travels from Brooklyn, NY to face once-beaten contender Radivoje “Hot Rod” Kalajdzic, 21-1 (14 Nocáuts), de St. Petersburgo, Florida.
Rounding out the televised portion of the card is fellow Brooklyn-based Russian Ivan “The Volk” Golub, who risks his 12-0 ledger against an opponent TBA over ten rounds in the welterweight division.
