I love that boxing teaches real life lessons and metaphors that anyone can apply in other areas of their lives, Boxing Teaches the importance Discipline, work ethic, and the importance of facing your fears and challenges head on.

In 2001 My mom started a boxing promotional company called Honey B Boxing and entertainment, dedicated to the health and wellness of female professional boxers. Also In memory of the late Professional boxer and very close family friend Stephon Johnson, Steph was most known for his fight against a young 2-0 Roy Jones Jr. He tragically was knocked out by Vaden in 1999 and never regained consciousness.
