After a four-year-old lost his iPad to a thief, he soon discovered that he had a former boxing champion in his corner.

When Howard Davis, Jr. and his wife saw the video of a boy in Tamarac, Florida, getting the gadget snatched from his hands, they decided to stop by to provide relief, and a little lesson.

Davis, who won a gold medal for boxing at the 1976 Montreal Olympics, says that when you get knocked down, you have to get right back up.

The little boy, identified only as Alejandro, is clearly elated, and once he's old enough to understand how big a deal it is for a complete stranger, and an Olympic champion, to have helped, we're sure that iPad will be all the more valuable….even 10 generations of new iPads later.
