Die nuwe generasie: Lippe-Morrison gereed vir ShoBox-debuut

 

Miami, OK (September 22, 2016) – As die seun van die gewilde voormalige swaargewigkampioen Tommy Morrison, Trey Lippe-Morrison se naam alleen wek aandag.

 

'n Vinnige blik op die Oklahoman se rekord wys dat almal 11 van sy oorwinnings het met uitklophou gekom, 10 binne van twee rondtes. Diegene wat dieper in Lippe-Morrison se loopbaan gegrawe het, sal sien dat hy deur die legendariese Freddie Roach by Wildcard Boxing Club in Los Angeles opgelei is, SOOS. Inteendeel, sy kritici merk op dat sy naam alleen die gons eerder as sy uitklophoue veroorsaak het en baie tweede generasie boksers het nie aan verwagtinge voldoen nie.

 

Op Vrydag aand by die Buffalo Run Casino, Lippe-Morrison wil sy TV-debuut 'n suksesvolle een maak wanneer hy teen sy mede-onoorwonne Ed "Black Magic" Latimore veg. Die geveg maak 'n viervoudige kop op Shobox oop: Die Nuwe Generasie en is geskeduleer vir 6 rondes. Latimore, 13-0 (7 KO se), besit amateuroorwinnings oor die voormalige swaargewigkampioen Charles Martin en 2012 Amerikaanse Olimpiese Speler Dominic Breazeale. Die Pittsburgh, PA-boorling sal Lippe-Morrison se moeilikste toets tot nog toe wees en hy glo die groot belangstelling in hierdie geveg sal eers sy loopbaan verhoog wanneer hy as oorwinnaar uit die stryd tree..

 

“Dit is 'n moeilike stryd vir Trey,” het Tony Holden gesê, Lippe-Morrison se promotor. “Latimore is onoorwonne en het 'n goeie amateur-agtergrond gehad. Hy en sy span glo hierdie geveg sal deure vir hom oopmaak. Die belangstelling in hierdie geveg is buitengewoon groot, nie net as gevolg van wie Trey is nie, maar ook omdat daar twee onoorwonne Amerikaanse swaargewigte is wat vroeg in hul loopbane optree.. Die wenner is beslis waardig om as ’n aanvullend en opkomende swaargewig beskou te word.”

 

Lippe-Morrison is 'n lid van Holden Productions se "Four State Franchise" en het baklei 9 van sy 11 gevegte by die Buffalo Run Casino, 'n lokaal wat hy al verskeie kere help uitverkoop het. Met die tuisdorpvoordeel en foutlose begin van sy professionele loopbaan, Lippe-Morrison weet daar sal druk op hom wees, maar glo hy is gereed om dit te hanteer.

 

“Daar is 'n bietjie ekstra druk,” het die 26-jarige gesê oor bakleiery op TV. “Daar is natuurlik die mense wat my op dieselfde vlak by my pa wil sien, maar sommige daarvan word deur my gebring. Ek en my span glo ek is gereed hiervoor. Ek het baie beter geword en elke dag onder Freddie Roach geleer. Freddie sê ek is voorbereid vir die stap en hy het volle vertroue in my. Nou moet ek uitgaan en optree.”

 

Die quadrupleheader word regstreeks op Showtime uitgesaai om 10 PM ET en bevat ook Ivan "The Volk" Golub teen James "Keep em' Sleepin" Stevenson, Ivan “The Beast” Baranchyk vs Zhimin Wang en Radivoje “Hot Rod” Kalajdzic neem “Notorious” Travis Peterkin aan.

 

Kaartjies is uitverkoop en hierdie uitstekende aand van boks word bevorder deur DiBella Entertainment en Holden Productions in samewerking met Fight Promotions Inc.. en Roc Nation Sports.

“Trey is the real deal and I plan to put him in big fights within the next year,"Sê promotor Tony Holden. “We are going to keep stepping him up and hope to get him rounds but he continues to knock out every man in front of him.
