Two years ago today; we lost an amazing humanitarian, historian, world-class athlete, father, brother, husband, pioneer, musician and coach: Howard Davis Jr. It's been two years that we lost him at the young age of 59 due to Lung Cancer. Howard's legacy will live on as we remember this sad day because he's not with his physically, but we feel his spirit everyday.

"I see Howard through the eyes of our amazing 7-year-old daughter - Samiha. Not one day goes by that I don't think, cry and love the memories that I shared with my soulmate. Thank you for your notes, pictures and stories about Howard that touched your lives. Howard had such a magnetic personality that continues to touch people. My daughter and I get our daily strength in knowing that we were blessed by Howard's presence. I love you, Howard. I teach Samiha things that I know were important to you. She's not eating a lot of sugar, she knows how to swim and she has your kind and loving spirit. You're always with us." - Karla Guadamuz-Davis ... See MoreSee Less

Not since March 10, 1986, when an 18-0 ‘Iron’ Mike Tyson made the commute from upstate Catskill to Uniondale on Long Island to lay out journeyman Steve Zouski in the third round with a picture-perfect left hook, has the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum exhibited an evening of professional boxing.

A year ago today we lost Howard Davis Jr. due to Stage 4 Lung Cancer. Many knew of Howard's many accomplishments: first fighter to win the New York Golden Gloves 4-times in a row, only American Boxer to win in the Pan American Games in Cuba, 1976 Boxing Olympic Gold Medalist, awarded the Val Barker Trophy for being the most outstanding boxer of the 1976 Olympics, successful professional boxer with a career that spanned nearly 20 years, MMA pioneer training fighters on how to stand and strike in the embryo stages of the sport, appeared on the Ultimate Fighter Season 11 as Chuck Liddell's boxing coach and the most successful MMA promoter in the State of Florida after co-founding Fight Time Promotions with his wife - Karla Guadamuz-Davis.
Howard Davis Jr. was inducted into the following Hall of Fames:
New York Golden Gloves Boxing Hall of Fame
Florida Boxing Hall of Fame
New Jersey Boxing Hall of Fame
New York Boxing Hall of Fame
Broward County Sports Hall of Fame
These many accomplishments and accolades only tell a small fraction of who Howard Davis Jr. was. He was a musician, who played four instruments and performed at the famed Apollo theater with the likes of Sammy Davis Jr. and James Brown. Howard was a historian, who collected numerous books and was an avid reader. Howard also loved to motivate others to succeed and cheered for those when they didn't believe in themselves. His bright smile, boyish smirk and storytelling captivated anyone that he came across. Howard left us too soon, but his love, words of wisdom and legacy will live on forever. We miss you very much, Howard. You will never be forgotten.
