Tommy Morrison was known as a legend for his wins over George Foreman and Donovan Ruddock, but it seems his son is forging his own path to greatness.
Tommy Morrison retired in 2008 with a record of 48-3-1, and held a career-defining victory over George Foreman.
His son, Kenzie Morrison, also took to boxing, and racked up a record of 22-1-2, defeating Hasim Rahman Jr. in 2022.
He has since moved on from boxing, though, into a whole new combat sport.
Kenzie Morrison stuns in BKFC debut
Kenzie Morrison has made his debut in the bare-knuckle fighting championship, winning with a brutal first-round KO.
Fans have reacted to Morrison’s debut, with some comparing him to his father:
“His left hand reminded me of his father wow.”
“He has hands like his pops”
Others criticized his opponent, though in an entirely new sport, it’s hard to expect a championship contest.
An audience member filled in for Tommy Morrison’s opponent in the last minute
In 1993, Morrison faced Tim Tomashek in his first defense of his new WBO title.
Tomashek was never the intended opponent, as Morrison was set to face Mike Williams, who bizarrely refused to leave his dressing room for the fight.
The scramble to find a new opponent was now on, as fans had already taken their seats for the fight.
With very little time, Tomashek, a journeyman boxer who was in the crowd to watch Morrison, who lost to Ray Mercer, stepped up.
He lasted four rounds, before being pulled from the fight he was certainly not ready for.
