Kahlil Sweeney was raised in detroit and his parents gave him away to a women (name not mentioned) when he was just 6 weeks old. he always wondered why his parents gave him away and was always looking for family. He ended up finding family in the wrong places. He got shot at many times, once somebody shot 26 rounds at him from they car. Kahlil believes that he did not get hit by the shots because he was meant to be there for the kids. So he created the Downtown Boxing gym youth program. ]]> 2019-01-08 04:51:36 UTC https://padlet.com/kalexa9824/3agjw24kr8ni/wish/318160793 kalexa9824 https://padlet.com/kalexa9824/3agjw24kr8ni/wish/318161283 ”Books before boxing has always been our motto."?
”Just imagine if you just fell in a hole and broke every bone in your body. It took you 20 years to crawl out of this hole, and the minute you crawl out, you see a young kid about to run right in that hole. You just move out of the way and let them fall in there? I can't do it. So, I'm going to do everything I can do to stop people from falling in that hole. I'm going to cover it up; I'm going to block it. Whatever I've got to do."?
