Richard King! The man himself. Our relationship has always been strong because we’ve always been on the same wavelength, through thick and thin. We’ve been each other’s motivators, and that has taken us far—not just in our football careers, but now into the coaching and training environment. I feel so blessed to have a friend like Richard, who also inspires me to keep pushing forward. Seeing his progress gives me even more reason to stay motivated and keep striving for greatness.

Abdul
Footballer, Boxer and Basketballer
Two sentences can't even encompass the words to describe Richard King. Intentional, intelligent, calculated, continuously seeking knowledge to improve himself mentally and physically. Richard is always motivated to exceed results both in his business life and his personal life. To have a friend or even a partner with a fraction of the characteristics as him in life to me, can be compared to winning the lottery.
