From that toehold he climbed the corporate ladder before becoming president for Adidas North America w...

Dave Letele is perhaps best known as a former professional boxer 'Brown Buttabean’, but his story is so much larger than that.  

It's been filled with highs and lows, from early sporting success to the failure of his supermarket business in Australia where he lost everything, including his family, and returned to New Zealand with only the clothes on his back, weighing in at over 200 kgs.
