Um split team management has announced the signing of its biggest athlete in 69.
Iowa native antonio morales, yes, 24 years old, uh, effectively known as the lincoln giant because of his stature and uh status of graduate of lincoln high school in des moines.
So he’s known as the lincoln giant because he graduated from lincoln high.
But here’s the thing he was born his mother, his mother, went through like some serious serious stuff when he was born uh.
He, the nurses in in in the hospital, were getting kicks out of how big his feet were.
Next to the new newborns, they had to go into pediatrics.
To get this kid diapers when he was born, he was 24 and a half inches long and literally like 12 or 13 pounds at birth, the guy’s a monster but he’s signed by split team management.
Um.
You know and he’s trained he’s training with robert garcia, so those are two good things there uh you guys, you can go! Watch him uh.
You can see these videos of him uh for olympic trials olympic trials, gold, medalist, 2020 uh, this kid man – i don’t know.
What’S gon na happen, he’s got he’s got good people under his cor.
You know in his he’s, got he’s managed by david mcwater.
First of all, so there you go.
You got good management team uh, you know, robert garcia is a good trainer um and you know it’s just a recipe for success with this guy and honestly, i like watching the way this guy moves man, this guy, you know, he’s, got he’s got jabs and he Uses his jab well very well, um! You know he pops it off many many times.
There’S a couple of videos that i’ve seen back in his amateur day of you know him him using that job perfectly and uh using it very well he’s well executed, jab man and he’s playing all levels too, not just in the head but to the body.
But this wonderful southpaw, i can’t wait to see him get back in the ring uh.

So you can watch it.
It’S uh! It’S a doozy! Uh, you know he debuts against uh, demonte and uh.
This guy’s, this guy’s, no joke devonte – is a 300 pounder man like so.
But to see this kid though man um he’s been self-conscious since birth.
He could not avoid it.
You know he was born 12 pounds.
Three quarters of an ounce: that’s what i’m saying man and 24 inches long um morales has blossomed into this six foot.
Nine 270 pound monster now, so you know what you ask if there’s guys out there that are like the size of tyson fury, i guess there is man.
You know, like i’m pretty sure, fury’s the same size.
Is he not six nine 270 in around there? Well, you know what this kid he looks really good uh.
You know debuts in this uh top-ranked, four-rounder and um.
You know robert garcia, david water and split team management, they’re very, very happy with this performance.

We’Re definitely going to leave it there for you.
So you can see this fight man, it’s pro debut back on friday, really good man! I’M excited to see this kid get back in the ring and see what he can do um.
You know as long as he listens to his management team and he listens to his trainers, and you know he goes into those training sessions with an open head man.
We’Re going to see a lot more of this kid for sure he’s, definitely a force to be reckoned with towering in at 6, 9 270 pounds uh.
You know and that’s as long as as long as he does.
What he’s told, i think he’ll be a force to be reckoned with in the in the future of this uh of this division? Definitely man, i haven’t seen a guy who’s been uh been that size for a long time.
You know that’s uh, that’s pro debuted and uh we’ve.
Finally seen it and um.
You know shout out to one of our viewers that shouted out this name.
I think it was back on uh back on friday on our panel.
That’S true drop.
The name drop, the name which caused us to uh have to definitely come and check this guy out.
Man uh, you know, he’s large he’s skilled.
He carries an edge that foundation may derive from his father, who loves to bar room brawl.
So so, even if it’s meant going from shoe store to shoe store, so antonio could have his teenage mutant, ninja materials think is his older brother ambarthio is the same height as antonio, so he’s got a brother the same height, so this mom’s breeding out monsters.
You know um, there must be something going on in the water over in des moines.

Let’S just call him the destroyer man, that’s that’s all it’s going to be from now on, but if he, if he keeps making quick work of people like he did against um, you know uh demonte, on his on his debut, i think he’s gon na be a Force to be reckoned with in the future here you know the kid was uh team, usa, uh.
