SR Leonard admits to being Sexually Abuse by Olympic Boxing coach

[JazMerkin]

Terrible stuff, any ideas about who it was?

I'll definitely buy Leonard's book, seems like a step above the usual boxing autobiography. Also good that he's waited till well past the end of his career. I can't stand reading autobiographies by guys who've not even been a pro 5 years or someone who still has fights remaining and can make themselves look a right dickhead with the opinions put forward in it *cough Joe Calzage*

That aside, it seems like he's not doing it as a PR stunt and will address his personal problems in depth.

I've been looking forward to an autobiography from Sugar Ray Leonard.

It's sad to hear what he went through, but it sounds as if there's going to be some explosive stuff in it.

Ya know, if it was me, I probably would have, knocked the mother-fucker upside the head, and then just kept my mouth shut about it. But good for Ray, I respect him for saying something about it, maybe that will keep the shit from happening to some other young kid.

I might have to buy his book as well. I recall reading his net worth was around $100 Million a year or two back so I don't imagine his motivation for the book being money. I'm guessing it's a pretty good read. However, the Sexual abuse bit does sound more like bait.

There's a bit of brain damage for ya.... For boxing, don't you have to be 16 to qualify for the Olympics.

Incidentally, Leonard was also sexually abused by Roberto Duran.

This is hilarious, and verbally abused as well..

Well Leonard ended getting last Laugh in the end with Duran making him quiet like a bitch. One of the times i like someone clowning around with opponent was when Leonard did it.

The Olympics is every 4 years, my guess is you can train for it when you're 16, but need to be 18 to qualify, but then WTF do I know.
