Success in the face of adversity. These are the stories of professional and amateur boxers, an exploration of what it takes to become a champion, a leader, and a force for good in society. The Making of Champions is produced in honor and respect for the legacy of Joe Louis--the longest reigning world heavyweight champion whose impact on society can still be measured today.One message that rings across boxing is how the ring saved many from despair. Joe Louis represents what is possible. He showed the world that anyone, regardless of the world around him, could rise and become a champion. So many of the athletes we've met and will continue to meet, tell a story that echoes the themes of Joe Louis's life. It is this chord that resonates with us. It's knowing that there are young people whose courage, hard work, and optimism have carried them out of darkness into the light. This is the inspiration that we believe can be the guiding light to others who face adversity, giving them courage and helping them achieve their goals.

"Dana Richards' greatest mission is to serve.. she is a philanthropist, breast cancer survivor, fashion designer, television producer & butterfly. In 2017, she launched Malibu Dana active-wear line to help breast cancer patients by donating a portion of proceeds from every purchase to various charities she works closely with as a volunteer, ambassador, committee member, advisory board member, & board of director. As a 12-year breast cancer survivor, she is deeply committed to helping other breast cancer patients and advocating for early detection. Malibu Dana (as most people refer to her these days - or as "Butterfly") feels this beautiful ripple effect behind her at every turn. They say that a butterfly flapping its wings in Africa can cause a hurricane in Florida. The Butterfly Strong collection came from wanting to help breast cancer patients know they aren’t alone… everyone has a story, and everyone has endured hardship. In essence- everyone is a butterfly. The metamorphosis, the resurrection, the rising, the becoming Butterfly, & the understanding of the power of good – and that her destined mission on this planet is to serve, have given her wings to fly. Ultimately it comes down to showing strength & perseverance in the face of adversity, advocating for what you believe in, and spreading joy wherever you can. Together we can generate powerful forces of change- and make this world a better place. That is the meaning behind the words Butterfly Strong… it’s the Malibu Dana philosophy… it's caring about something greater than yourself, being part of something bigger than all of us, and serving this beautiful planet and all its humanity every single day.…
