You’re talking about Natasha Howard? And you talking about Toledo, Ohio? And you talking about respect and recognition?! Let me tell you something, and I’m gonna be loud and clear, because this is an OUTRAGE! An absolute, unadulterated, head-scratching, jaw-dropping OUTRAGE!
We are sitting here, in the year of our Lord, 2025! And Natasha Howard, a woman who has cemented her legacy as one of the greatest to EVER step foot on a basketball court, is still waiting for her hometown to truly acknowledge her! It’s like asking a five-star chef to cook a gourmet meal and then serving it on a paper plate!

IT MAKES NO SENSE!
The Receipts Are IN!
Let’s just look at the resume, shall we? Because the proof, my friends, is in the pudding! This isn’t some hypothetical discussion! This isn’t a “what if”! This is cold, hard, undisputed fact!

• THREE-TIME WNBA CHAMPION! That’s not one, not two, but three rings! You hear me? Three! That immediately puts her in the conversation with legends, past and present!
• TWO-TIME WNBA ALL-STAR! She’s been recognized by her peers and the fans as one of the elite talents in the league, not just once, but twice!
• TWO-TIME ALL-DEFENSIVE TEAM! She’s not just an offensive threat; she’s a lockdown defender, a brick wall, a nightmare for opposing players!
• 2018 WNBA MOST IMPROVED PLAYER! She put in the work, she evolved her game, she took it to another level! That takes dedication, folks!
• 2023 AND 2024 EUROLEAGUE CHAMPION! You hear that? That’s international dominance! She’s taking her talents across oceans and conquering the world! Winning back-to-back championships in Europe! That is unparalleled!
• And as if that weren’t enough, just this year, 2025, she just led her team to the COMMISSIONER’S CUP CHAMPIONSHIP AND WAS NAMED THE MVP! The MVP, people! She is still performing at an ELITE, championship-caliber level!
  

She’s got a trophy case that probably needs its own zip code! Championships, individual accolades, domestic, international – she has done it ALL!
Everybody ELSE Gets It! Why Not Toledo?!
The WNBA gets it! They give her her flowers, they recognize her greatness! The fans, from Seattle to New York, from Dallas to Indiana, they see the brilliance of Natasha Howard! Even her own people, the passionate basketball fans right there in Toledo, they understand what they have in their midst! And let me tell you something, when a bona fide Toledo sports icon like Jim Jackson — a man who has seen his share of greatness, a man who knows what it takes to perform at the highest level — when he steps up and gives Natasha Howard her proper due, you know it’s legitimate! He’s not just casually mentioning her; he’s giving her HER FLOWERS!

But then you look at the City of Toledo, the actual government, the powers that be, and it’s like they’re living under a rock! A giant, oblivious rock! We’re not just talking about a little plaque, folks! We’re not talking about some ceremonial street naming, although, again, that’s the absolute bare minimum! That is a drop in the bucket compared to what this woman has accomplished!

No! We’re talking about recognizing her for what she unequivocally is: THE MOST DECORATED SPORTS ATHLETE IN TOLEDO HISTORY!

You search the records! You look at the resumes! Who else from the Glass City has accumulated this kind of hardware, this kind of sustained excellence, this kind of championship pedigree across multiple levels of professional basketball? Nobody! Not one single soul!

So, I’m calling you out, Toledo! It’s time to wake up and smell the coffee! It’s time to acknowledge the true greatness that has emerged from your very own streets! Natasha Howard isn’t just a great athlete from Toledo; she’s the greatest! And it’s time you act like it! She deserves nothing less! Now, do something about it!

Alright, alright, alright! Let’s talk some REAL boxing, people! Let’s talk about a fighter who’s been knocking on the door so loudly, the whole damn division is acting like they can’t hear the doorbell! I’m talkin’ about ALBERT. PRINCE. BELL!

Twenty-eight and OH! That’s right, you heard me! 28-0! Undefeated! Untarnished! This ain’t some padded record against tomato cans, folks. This man has been putting in WORK, dismantling opponents, leaving a trail of bruised egos and broken dreams in his wake. And now? Now he’s stepping up! He’s saying, “You know what? These lightweights, they’re scared! They’re ducking! So, I’m taking my talents, my power, my undefeated record, and I’m heading to the 135-pound division!”

Can you believe it?! This man has been screaming from the rooftops! He’s been crystal clear! He wants the big fights! He wants the champions! He wants the opportunity to prove, without a shadow of a doubt, that he is the REAL DEAL! And what happens? Crickets! Silence! You hear more noise at a library than you hear from these so-called top contenders when Albert Prince Bell’s name gets mentioned!

They talk a big game on social media, don’t they? They puff out their chests after beating some nobody. But when a genuine threat, a legitimate force like Albert Prince Bell comes knocking? Suddenly, they’ve got a hangnail! Suddenly, their grandma needs help moving furniture! Suddenly, they’ve discovered a deep and abiding love for fighting overseas in a time zone nobody can find on a map!

It’s PATHETIC, I tell you! Absolutely PATHETIC! This man has earned his stripes! He’s put in the blood, sweat, and tears! He’s delivered knockout after knockout! And yet, he’s been treated like the plague! Fighters are running scared! Promoters are making excuses! It’s a DISGRACE to the sport!

And don’t even get me STARTED on the lack of title shots! How many undefeated fighters with this kind of resume have been left out in the cold for this long?! It’s an insult to the man’s dedication, his skill, and frankly, to the intelligence of the boxing fans! We see what’s happening! We know who’s avoiding who!

But you know what? This move to 135? This is a STATEMENT! This is Albert Prince Bell saying, “Alright, you featherweights don’t want none of this? Fine! I’ll go up and conquer a whole new division!” He’s not backing down! He’s not hiding! He’s showing the world the heart of a true champion!

So, to all those lightweight contenders out there, the clock is ticking! Albert Prince Bell is coming! He’s hungry! He’s determined! And he’s got a point to prove! You can run, but you can’t hide forever! The Prince is coming for his crown, and mark my words, he ain’t taking no prisoners!

Now, let’s see if these fighters finally have the guts to step into the ring with this undefeated BEAST! I’m not holding my breath, but a man can hope, can’t he?!
