Has there ever been an openly gay boxer?
Bit of an odd question but hear me out. Im sure there must have been some secretly gay boxers but has there been any openly gay?
I was recently reading a book called 'Looking for a fight' by David Matthews (excellent book I highly recommend it). Its a first person account that follows David Matthews himself (he is a journalist by trade) and he decides to become a professional boxer to find out from the inside about the business, with no prior boxing/sporting experience at the age of 31. He trains at the gym where Clinton Woods trains and Woods was saying that if there were a gay boxer he'd have a massive huge following and loads of fans due to the gay community. Got me wondering, has there ever been a gay boxer?
