Fredia “The Cheetah” Gibbs (born July 8, 1963), nicknamed “The Most Dangerous Woman in the World”, is a sports icon and Muay Thai kickboxing legend. Gibbs is a 3 Time World Champion in Kickboxing and the first African American female to hold the world kickboxing championship for the International Sport Karate Association. She is known for having a very balanced attack as a kick-boxer that includes a ferocious overhand right, a mighty left, and lighting quick feet. ==Early years==
Fredia Gibbs was born just south of Philadelphia in a tough part of Chester, Pennsylvania. Growing up in the Fairground Community was tough for Gibbs who was constantly being messed with by neighborhood kids and classmates. Since her mother taught her not to fight back, Gibbs frequently found herself running from neighborhood bullies. When she wasn’t running from bullies, the All American & Most Valuable Player Gibbs was busy excelling in basketball and track at her high school, so it’s only appropriate that she earned the nickname “The Cheetah.” After high school, Gibbs attended Temple University in Philadelphia where she was the recipient of two athletic scholarships for her excellence in both basketball and track. She later attended Cabrini College on a basketball scholarship focusing on her grades and her game. The basketball phenomenon was invited to the United States Olympic Training Center located in Colorado Springs to try out for the women's USA Olympic Basketball Team where she was cut during the second tryouts. Gibbs was also selected Kodak All American for three consecutive years for basketball at Cabrini College where she majored in Marketing. She later went on to play professional basketball in Germany, averaging almost 30 points, 15 rebounds & 10 assist a season. Gibbs is showcased on www.hoopedia.nba.com under Chester High School. Her hometown recently inducted her into Chester High School's “Basketball Hall of Fame" and named their track team after Gibbs now called "Chester Cheetah's."
