Benefits of Strenuous Exercise Numerous studies show that strenuous, aerobic exercise can actually help “improve their physical performance and activities of daily living,” according to a critical review published in the Clinical Journal of Sports Medicine. The program, currently in action at Paulie Ayala’s University of Hard Knocks

Gym, provides a safe, yet challenging environment for patients to work on their physical fitness, overall coordination and develop the fighter’s “never give up, never give in” mentality.

Dewey BozellaArthur Ashe Courage Award Winner & Boxer

There are times in life when it is easier, or even more sensible, to just give up. This isn’t a belief held by 2011 Arthur Ashe Courage Award winner Dewey Bozella. The 2011 ESPY Awards celebrated the courage and conviction that led Bozella to the ultimate path of freedom after 26 years of wrongful imprisonment.

“Terrible” Terry Norris

“Terrible” Terry turned pro in 1986 and defeated Quincy Taylor before TKO’ing Steve Little for the NABF junior middleweight title. In 1989 he challenged the hard-punching Julian Jackson for the WBA title, but was halted in the second round. The resilient Norris bounced back to score a sensational one-round kayo over John “The Beast” Mugabi for the WBC junior middleweight belt. An impressive string of 10 successful defenses followed.
