James McKenzie Witt (born July 18, 1990) known professionally as Kenzie Morrison, is an American professional boxer and bare-knuckle boxer. He is the son of deceased former World Boxing Organization heavyweight world champion Tommy Morrison. In August 2026 KTUL news reported that Morrison has stage 4 stomach cancer which has metastasized to his spine. He sought treatment in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.[2]
Professional career

From 2014 to 2017 he competed 13 times at Buffalo Run Casino in Miami, Oklahoma.
