Who is Lorenzo Simpson? He is a professional boxer from Baltimore, Maryland born March 3, 2000. Lorenzo is the son of Danica Carroll and his deceased father Dante Simpson. His father was murdered during a home invasion when Lorenzo was only four years old.
In an interview, Simpson stated he was given the nickname "Truck" by his coach, indicative of his power. He also said the name stayed with him and will lead him to many big things. With that being said, every time Lorenzo shows up in the ring, he shows up with "Truck" on his waistband.
Simpson was trained by Calvin Ford and his uncle, former world heavyweight titleholder, Hasim Rahman. Truck mentioned he owes a lot to his uncle Raheem and is grateful for the opportunity of signing with MTK Global. At the age of 20, the middleweight prospect was the first American-born fighter to sign an advisory with MTK Global. At the time, he was 8-0 with 5 knockouts.
Lorenzo made his professional debut on December 8, 2018, and currently holds a record of 14-2 with 7 knockouts.
