Former Boxer Mitchell Rose Releases Barack Obama Sneakers

January 20th 2009 will go down as an important day in American history where Barack Obama will be inaugurated as the country’s first African American President. Former pro boxer Mitchell Rose not only voted for Obama but strongly supports him. “Like me, Barack Obama is a fighter who supports change” said Rose, who will be in D.C. for the inauguration.

Shortly after President George W Bush was almost literarily hit with a shoe in Iraq, Rose plans to hit the market with his own pair. Rose will be selling Barack Obama sneakers which were created for fans to honor our new President. The sneakers are available in black and white as well have the number 44 on the tongue in honor of our 44th President. The sneakers also have his smiling face on the ankle and “Obama” written on the heel. “Obama’s smiling face can literarily be seen a city block away because my sneaker glows in the dark “mentioned Rose, who first gained fame after knocking out popular boxer Butterbean.

Rose’s ultimate goal is to change the sneaker business as a lot of Americans, specifically minorities wear Nikes. Rose however is upset that he has never heard about Nike doing something positive for the urban community. “I have never heard of them building a recreation facility or anything like that”, exclaimed Rose. “I say lets change the sneaker industry with the Obamas".

Ten percent of the total proceeds from the Barack Obama sneakers will go to the National Action Network, a nonprofit civil rights organization in which Al Sharpton is involved with. Their motto is “No Peace No Justice”. “Al Sharpton is one of the few leaders who hast fought for minority rights for over two decades”, said Rose. “He is one of the only people who have the courage to stand up to the police when they are violent toward minorities. We also share the same lawyer Sanford Rubenstein”, continued Rose.

Rose also wrote a book called “Mike Tyson Tried to Kill My Daddy to raise awareness of the problems people who are from the streets face on a daily basis. His book also discusses Surveilivision and the James Davis Reward Fund which are two programs he will make official soon that will help financial and criminal problems in the urban communities. “These are great projects I’m working on that can help out the community in a short amount of time” said Rose, who also sells sneakers as well as playing cards of boxing legend Mike Tyson.

The sneakers are currently being sold for $59.99. Those who can’t afford or are not interested in the sneakers can still help out by donating $1, $5, $10 or any other amount, which would be greatly appreciated. The sneakers can be ordered by sending a check or money order to Rose Knockout Products Inc PO Box 691 Valley Stream, NY 11582, calling 917-861-0021 and going to InagurationObamaSneakers.Com or Amazon.Com. All Questions can be sent to presidentbarackobamasneakers@yahoo.com.

Andy Murray targeting boxing’s Grand Slam

Brian Peters believes that the name Andy Murray is going to become very familiar to sports fans this year – and he’s not talking about the Tennis player. Irish boxing has it’s own rising star in Cavan’s Andy Murray and having just signed a managerial deal with Peters his new manager believes he can be Ireland’s next big boxing hero.

The 3 time Irish Senior amateur champ turned professional in 2005 and remains undefeated having so far racked up 16 straight wins while hardly losing a round and claiming Irish titles at both lightweight and light welterweight.

However he’s also had to endure frustrating periods of inactivity but Peters is promising to keep him busy as he guides him towards a European and even World titles.

“Andy’s an exceptionally talented fighter but he has all the other attributes as well to make it to the very top,” enthused Peters. “He’s very marketable, he’s level headed, he has a great work ethic and he’s very focused on what he wants to achieve in boxing.

“His career has been a slow burning one to date but I believe he will really take off this year. His last win for the Irish lightweight title was very impressive. He won every round in that fight and McDonagh has gone on to have a couple of good wins since then.”

On turning pro Murray had signed with London based manager Michael Helliet but a lack of opportunities on the U.K. scene led Murray to return home. Peters said, “Mickey is a good boxing man but things just didn’t work out for Andy in England and with the pro scene buzzing here at the moment it makes sense for him to be based here.

“He’ll train up in Belfast at John Breen’s gym and that gym is really on a high with guys like Paul McCloskey, Martin Rogan and Stephen Haughian having had such a good 2008.”

Murray is delighted to have signed terms with Peters and believes it will prove the key to him fulfilling his undoubted potential.

“It was a very easy decision to make signing with Brian,” said Murray. “You only have to look at what he’s done for professional boxing in Ireland in the last few years and the job he’s done with people like Bernard Dunne, Paul McCloskey and others. Even last year when I wasn’t under contract with him he kept me busy with fights and it was great to get some TV exposure as well.”

While Peters begins working on the medium and long term goals of European and World titles Murray is happy to take it one fight at a time. “I just want to keep stepping up each and every time until I’m ready for those big fights. I know I’m not the finished article yet and you want to learn from each and every fight but I’ve no doubt Brian will deliver those fights for me and then when the chance at a major title comes along I’ll be ready for it.

Murray’s first outing under the new arrangement will come on February 7th when he features on Stephen Haughian: The Homecoming card at the Craigavon Leisure Centre with Peters planning on keeping him busy throughout 2009 and delivering some significant opportunities.

“Andy’s fight on February 7th should shake off any ring rust he’ll have and allow him to get an understanding with his new trainers, John Breen and Eamonn Magee. After that we’ll be looking to step up the level of competition and start directing him towards the European title. I have no doubt that Andy is capable of becoming European champion and once he’s at that level the world’s his oyster.”
