The History Of Woman Boxing !
1876: New York Hills Theater holds a boxing match between Nell Saunders and Rose Harland. This is considered the first female boxing match in the United States. The top prize? A silver butter dish.
1904: Men and women’s boxing is introduced at the modern Olympic games in St. Louis as display events. Men’s boxing was accepted into the Olympics, women’s was not.
1954: Barbara Buttrick is the first female boxer to have a fight broadcast on national television. Buttrick fought as a 98-pound flyweight and was only four feet and eleven inches tall.
1975: Eva Shain becomes the first female judge in professional boxing. She went on to judge many professional bouts, including a world heavyweight title bout and 50 other title bouts.
I find woman boxing to be an amazing achievement showing that woman can fight to.

MJ`s original Nike Contract
THIS WAS SIGNED ON OCTOBER 24, 1984 BY MICHEAL JORDAN HIMSELF
The day Michael Jordan signed his first contract with Nike, the world literally changed overnight..This was the first deal that catapulted Jordan to the next stratosphere and changed the way athletes are marketed forever..Just imagine how different the world would be if MJ and Nike never agreed to play ball..this ultimately paved the way for all future athletes to make millions
In 1984, the Chicago Bulls of the National Basketball Association selected North Carolina's Michael Jordan (MJ) in the first round of the NBA draft. At the same time, Nike signed the promising young player to a 2.5 million dollar, five year contract. Nike worriedly included a clause that allowed the company to cancel the deal if sales of the shoe were below average.
In his first season Jordan wore a pair of black and red Nikes, and the company launched a commercial version of the shoe. The Air Jordan shoe included a silhouette of Jordan preparing to dunk that became called "the Jump Man". Michael established himself as one of the greatest players in NBA history, and the shoe quickly came to dominate the market.

Foamposites ! ( ELECTRIC BLUE )
Nike Foamposite fans have been frozen in anticipation ever since pictures first surfaced of this colorway in the Nike Air Foamposite Pro. We’ve previewed them recently but now have some new pictures for you guys to salivate over. The shoe features a vibrant electronic blue design on the upper, along with black accents, and of course is finished off with a clear sole
Foamposites ! ( PEWTER )
The day is finally upon us when the often sought after Metallic Pewter Foamposite will make its way into our homes. Like most of the Faomposites that have released, the model features an icey outsole and black lace stays that travel up around the ankle. A taste of carbon fiber sits at the arch, and Penny Hardaway’s logo sits comfortably on the heel.
Foamposites ! ( ROYAL BLUE )
Originally released in 1997, this groundbreaking shoe is responsible for all of the Foamposite-laced shoes we see today including the soon-to-be-released Foamposite Nike Air Force 1, the Foamposite Nike Blazer and others. Specifically, it was the first sneaker to feature Nike’s innovative Foamposite technology of synthetic leathers. Of course, the “Copper” and “Eggplant” Foamposites have been a hit within the past two years;
Foamposites ! ( COPPER )
THE COPPER FOAMPOSITES ARE DEFINITELY MY FAVORITE, they retail for 450 $ . The Nike Air Copper Foamposite features a copper colored foamposite design which sits atop a translucent outsole. They also sport a black fabric that extends from the top of the to box, through the lace stays and up and around the ankle collar. You will also see that the heel sports a gold embroidered logo to match the rest of the shoe.
Air Jordan 11 and Air Jordan 6 retro Pack
THE REASON THE JORDAN PACKS ARE SUCH A BIG DEAL, IS USUALLY THE JORDANS COST 250-450 Each. BUT WHEN YOU BUY THE COUNTDOWN PACK YOU GET THEM BOTH FOR 300 ! YOU SAVE ALOT. THE COUNTDOWN PACKS ALWAYS USUALLY LOOK BETTER THAN REGULAR Jordans .
COUNTDOWN PACKS ! ! !
The Images below are examples of air jordan countdown packs. The numbers always add up to 23. For example the 4 / 17 , 11 / 12, 6 / 15, and 5 / 18.
Sneaker Collection -
This Man Has An Outstanding Nike Dunk Collection,
Nike began production of the Dunk once again. Initial releases were classic university colors, but new non-team colors were soon introduced. At this time, Nike often released the same dunk in two different versions consisting of reversed colors. The dunks released from 1998 to 2000 featured a nylon tongue and arch supports, distinguishing them from today's dunk releases. Overall, the reintroduction of the dunk proved to be extremely successful and production numbers have since increased to meet growing demand.
