Boxing’s Leonard blazed an incredible trail during his tenure in the world of prizefighting. Before entering professional boxing the Maryland-born star won Olympic gold during the Montreal Games in 1976.
As a professional Leonard dazzled boxing fans with some of the sport’s most exciting battles with ring legends such as Wilfred Benitez, Roberto Duran, Marvin Hagler and of course Tommy “The Hitman” Hearns.
Leonard also worked for various media outlets first as a boxing analyst, then as a co-producer of the famed The Contender boxing reality series. He also promoted fight cards for several years. The boxing great will be honored by the charity foundation for his contributions.
